    Arizona Fall League Invites

    Pache, Davidson, Didder, Isranel Wilson - no Pitchers announced yet.

    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    I could be wrong on this, but I believe you can only play in the Arizona Fall League one year and Riley did that last season.

    If Didder could do anything consistently at the plate, he might have a future.

    I was talking about Didder, but my guess is with Davidson they are trying to figure out if there is any wisdom in retaining their investment. First round picks get every chance to fail.

    I don’t know why I quoted you rather than the OP.

    He can't be more embarrassing than Connor Lien was two years ago.

    I expect Pache to have a big season and become an untouchable player in trade talks.
    He has the size, speed and defense to be up next year. Just needs to get the bat going a little more.

    I think he may already be untouchable.

    Pretty surprised by Muller. He’s grown about 140 innings this year after being around 70 in 2017. That’s a pretty significant innings increase on its own, especially if they’re planning to tack more on.

    I wouldn't have guessed Walker either. He's fallen in to that meh prospect world. It may not be that he's failing as much as it is everyone around him is succeeding.

    what's his stuff like? if he has crazy good command with a decent FB, maybe it's not that weird.

    I expect Burrows to be in Atlanta sometime in the next couple of seasons. Hopefully he proves himself in Arizona.
    Go get him!
