Way to early to project, but I'm hoping that Austin Riley's ceiling is similar to Ryan Klesko's. Like Riley, Klesko was a two-way player who was actually more highly-prized as a pitcher until he screwed up his arm during his senior year in high school. He slipped to the 5th round, where the Braves drafted him as a hitter. A lot of scouts liked Riley more as a pitcher than hitter, so let's see if lightning strikes twice for the Braves.
 
Landoni (AA) is red hot. He's 3-3 tonight with a double. He was the player of the week in the southern league last week too. Is this guy a prospect?

Gosh, I washed Klesko from his early days in the minors and I never knew that. Nice one, Fiddy.

He's 26 and after last night's big game sported an OPS of .643.

I think it was him that fell down leading to Janas giving up 7 runs his previous start. That bad first inning could've been only three runs otherwise IIRC. Janas btw bounced back tonight with a solid 6 inning effort giving up one earned only to get the loss.

Riley has his BA up to .254 on the year. He's scorching hot after starting the year 0 for 20. Really could have used this guy at Mississippi State, but I'm glad the Braves have him.
 
I just remember the odor of cured meat and testosterone. A little oatmeal conditioner worked wonders, though.
