Nice to see some extra base hits from Peraza. He's only 21. Still has some time to fill out and develop some pop.
 
Still in no hurry to ship Cameron off until someone knocks our socks off with an offer, but *AMN Mallex is coming fast.

Wonder if Hart could somehow force someone to take Johnson to get Maybin?
 
I love it that the Braves are competitve this year but I would have really liked to have seen what CB could have done with 500+ ABs

Maybe we can move A.J. at the deadline for something and you can get your wish partially with CB starting the rest of the way. Seems the Braves have given up on him sorta (and in alot of ways I don't blame them), but we have nothing to lose by having him start on a team that's not going to the playoffs.
 
I don't know anything about Steve Janas, but his "traditional" numbers are off the chart. Great debut in Mississippi tonight. I don't know what his FIP is, and his strikeout rate is not hitting on a lot, but he hasn't given up more than a run in any start this year, and his WHIP is awesome as well.
 
Mallex Smith went 2-4 including a triple off the wall in centerfield tonight. He is starting to get going in AAA just as I expected, same thing happened with Peraza too. Smith also started slow himself in High A last year before having a great season.

People need to get on board. He is going to be real exciting next year.

He also had a double in game 1 today and a double yesterday. Looks like his power is coming around. Not too bad for a Juan Pierre clone. :icon_biggrin:

So funny when people criticize kids barely old enough to drink for not having power.
 
Ruiz with a pinch-hit game-winning 2-run shot for Mississippi. Mallex with 2 more hits including a 3B in the nightcap.
 
Ozhaino Albies goes 2 for 3 with 2 walks tonight. Just another day at the park for him.

EDIT: also 2 stolen bases for him as well.
 
I really am loving him and Davidson. The only two bats I am really high on in the system and look to have above average ceilings as hitters.

Everyone has their favorites...they are mine too, but rough start or not, Ruiz/Peterson, Mallex/Peraza....they may or may not amount to world beaters, but they are exciting in different ways.
 
Peraza and Smith bring other elements like speed and defense. I am a little higher on Peraza because he has a better hit tool. But neither guy really projects to be better than .750 OPS type bat. It is not that I dont like them. My expectations just are not nearly as high.

Thats fair. Albies is a legit top 25ish prospect at this point and being one of the youngest players in his league. He is truly a special prospect.
