The DSL gets started this morning at 10:30. Here's the Braves roster: http://m.milb.com/t605/roster/

The only names I recognized were our two $1+ million RHPs in last year's July 2 class Yefri Del Rosario and Juan Contreras. Also seems like a good indication that all of the $1+ million hitters we signed will at least start in the GCL.

Its always fun to see if some of these unheralded guys we signed end up being legit prospects. Ideally Del Rosario and Contrera dominate early. Wonder where the Colombian guy Zuniga is going to be... seemed like he was the least heralded of the pitchers signed that were widely publicized.

He actually threw 10 innings in five appearances in the DSL last year. I forgot what the loop hole was that allowed him to play last season, maybe age-related?

I bet he starts in the GCL this year. Pretty sure I remember Longenhagen being complementary of him in the fangraphs Braves write up.

I recognize Lisandro Santos (signed him last year I think?) and Alger Hodgson (Longenhagen says he's a prospect)

De Hoyos, Adrianza, and Sucre were signed last year, as well. Juan Morales the year before with Cruz and Pache.

Correct. Zuniga is certainly intriguing. He and a couple others from the heralded 2016 class started last year. Jeffry Ramos was one.

[zbhargrove]

That's right I forgot. I'm excited about Zuniga's potential

[mqt]

Just based on the number of MIF we have in Extended right now, we will see some more names added to the DSL roster once they determine who gets the spots in Danville and the GCL.

Juan Morales is an interesting name to watch. He was considered a fairly high profile IFA signing. Not nearly at the Cruz/Pache level, but ranked and a pretty decent bonus.

[Deester11]

Checking out the Rome game tonight. It'll be the second time I've seen Wentz. Hopefully he continues to pitch well. Cumberland has looked much better to this point and wasn't as lost as when I saw him earlier.

[Preacher]

Really interested to see how they break up the playing time for our young infielders. We brought in four high profile infielders last J2.

Maitan, Soto, Pena, and Severino. Maitan probably starts at SS, Pena at 3B and Severino at 2B; but I don't know where that leaves Soto who sounds like he can play SS and has a good hit tool.

And you still have Morales and Braulio Vasquez who can play SS, Vasquez played really well last year.

Personally I was surprised one of these guys didn't start in the DSL.

Acuna 1-1, cs
Demeritte 1-1, hr (8)

Yeah, I would find it odd if we don't have one of Severino or Soto playing SS at a different level than Maitan. Maybe Vasquez gets bumped to Danville?

Wentz...

And when you figure Derrian Cruz probably starts the season in Danville as the SS unless they move him to the OF, there's yet another middle infielder in the mix.

Gohara pulled after 2.1...
2.1 ip 3 h. 1 er 1 bb 2 k 42 pitches

Demeritte hits 2nd hr

[50PoundHead]

Demeritte hits 2nd hr

Starting to hit some HRs with his season-long K-rate down from past years. Good sign.

[UNCBlue012]

TD is now 3-3 with 2 homers and a triple

[bravesfanMatt]

Good game for TD.. Anyone hears anything about Gohard, post. I am not checking around for info because I am working on a patio and then dinner. I have a feeling it is just a hard pitch count, but still would like to know. Thanks in advance.

Twitter seems to suggest it was pitch count.
