Hit another Bomb today. Up to 7 on the short year. I like this kid's power potential.

Pretty exciting stuff for a 18 year old... cut down on the K's and you have a scary prospect if he can keep it up as he progresses
I looked at his HS numbers and his strike out total was excellent throughout. He walked 88 times compared to like 56 Ks. So it would appear he might not be the K guy some think. Give him time to adjust to the wooden bat and I think he may be fine.
Austin "not good value" Riley.

Riley's a stud. Needs to move to Danville soon.

MLB.com put Allard 5th, Soroka 13th, Herbert 15 or 16, and Riley 18. They didn't rank Yepez or Acuna.
I think they're right on for Allard and Soroka, too high on Herbert until we see more, and too low on Riley. I'd put Soroka and Riley about even. And I would probably have Yepez top 15-20, Acuna around 20, and I'd wait on Herbert until we see more.

Riley's in the Danville lineup tonight batting fifth.

I don't want to get my hopes up, but I think he's going to be riley good.
Austin is 2 for 4 with a triple and a RBI in his Danville debut. This kid is smoking hot right now.
IMO, he starts 2016 at Rome and gets a promotion to Carolina before the year is out. Possibility of him being in AA by 2017. Could he be the 3B in Atlanta in 2018?

Yepez and Ellison promoted to Danville.
