    Time For Another Contest: Guess the callups!

    I have a Braves Media Guide from the Golden 90s as a prize to anyone who can accurately predict the September 1 (or later) callups. Mississippi and possibly GCL are looking at postseason play, so some promotions might well be delayed. No such problem with Gwinnett and Carolina (if applicable).

    The guidelines are this. You might not get them all, but the prize will go to the first person who sees everyone ON YOUR LIST promoted. They can be first-timers, retreads or just plain insane. You must have at least four posted on your list; no limit as to how many you include; and the tiebreaker naturally enough will be the list who has the most promoted.

    You may wait until August 30, when we close the thread. Or you may change your list, as long as it's before August 30.

    Good luck. Nobody's won one of my media guides yet!

    Really hope you're right on Rojas jr. Supposedly he has played (not sure how well) all 3 OF positions and here's his line...

    .277/.356/.519

    Let em give kemp, Markakis, and maybe even inciarte days off

    I also want to see Rojas Jr... He's always had the raw talent and tools. At 26, maybe he's discovered something... at least enough to gain some value to be traded. He also has a .309 BABIP which isn't bad at all.
