    Exactly. Pitchers are different. You want them up as soon as possible because of the arm issues and decrease in stuff due to age.

    I read a few days ago that soroka had no structural damage but will be cautious

    I'll be sad to see Drew promoted to Florida next year, he's just so much fun to watch. Last week I saw him get a double on a little bloop over the shortstops head. He was running like the devil was chasing him from the time the bat hit the ball.

    He's also consistently available for the kids to speak to and get autographs before the games. I really hope he becomes a star.
    Go get him!

    Finally after several scathing letters from fans to the editor I'm sure.

    But where's Wilson?

    Touki at 78 seems crazy low. He has upside as high as anyone in the minors and he took a godzilla step forward this year.

    His big bump will be in the offseason.

    More importantly, how's that truck of his looking?

    I think so too. Wouldn't surpise me to see him as high as top 20.

    Does he have a truck? I would have guessed an imported sports car from the little I've been around him. Something like a little Audi.

    I thought Coppolella bought him a truck (could have been a sports car) and that's why the Braves had to forfeit their 3rd round pick in 2018.

    Don't see a thread on minor league baseball for today yet so I'll say this here: if Eric Cole (@leprekhan) is right, Drew Waters and William Contreras are going to the Fire Frogs.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.
