    I think the most irritating thing about baseball now is breathlessly getting the mph on every contact.

    That is all.

    Don't disagree. A 19-year-old hitting a blast at 111 is noteworthy though imo

    If a Braves prospect hits the ball 111 mph, I want to hear about it.

    Every.

    Time.

    100000X over. That’s a fairly important bit of information. Especially from a teenager that’s looks to be figuring it out.

    When drafted, CF. Not sure about early returns as a pro.

    Pache hr is big. I have to believe most scouts who think he will hit. Just think he’s three years out.

    If acuna is out I really hope dpete is the guy
    Pache is early 2020/late 2019, he's not 3 years out.

    • Braves No. 18 prospect Drew Waters went 2-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base out of the leadoff spot for Class A Rome. After a rocky start to the season (.237/.297/.424 in April), the 2017 second-rounder is slashing .313/.370/.657 with five home runs over 17 games this month. With a .278/.336/.548 batting line, six homers and six steals through 32 games, Waters, a 19-year-old outfielder, is a candidate to go 20-20 in his first full season.

    We’d have more to say re Zimmermann if they’d go ahead and move him up a level.

    Mind boggling that Zimmerman has not moved to Mississippi.
