2024 Minor League Thread

The Fangraphs article explains where Perdomo has been. They still expect him on the FCL team but he’s on the 60-day DL with a hamstring injury. Sounds like they still expect him to play this year.

Love that the Braves’ beat guys never thought to throw that note out there at any point. Continues the long-standing trend of national reporters breaking Beaves news before the local dunderheads.
 
Pretty big minor league news... JR Ritchie is back. He's making his season debut in the FCL today after having Tommy John at the end of May 2023.

Wow, that was actually super quick to be out not even 13 months.
 
Yeah, we’re going to have to trade from our pitching surplus to get anyone.

I have no idea what the MO is, but from the 30,000 foot level, it appears that drafting pitching--especially college pitchers who could move fast--could provide ammunition to use in deals. I think Hackenberg, Braun, and Kuehler from 2024 and Burkhalter and Maier froom earlier drafts all fit with that mindset. They certainly wouldn't trade them all, but there's enough ceiling on these guys to elicit at least some interest.
