Mahki Backstrom's first pro homer just happened.

Vaughn Grissom went 2-3 with a walk in game one. Promote him and Michael Harris to Danville, please.

Harris I get—he’s only 18, but he’s performing very well—but what about Grissom’s solid-but-unspectacular .770 OPS makes you think he needs to be in Danville?

Curious.

Thinking Davidson could look good in this pen in about 3 weeks.

Starting to feel like we are going to see Anderson/Davidson before the season is out. Its still in the teams best interest to rest Soroka/Fried over the next 2 months.

Try them out and see if they become a potential difference maker in a shot series out of the pen.

Man, Mississippi is going to be brutal the rest of the year.

Unless they skip Bryce Ball all the way up to AA.

All is well as long as the Notorious RPD remains.

I'd just as soon leave all the GCL guys where they are and shuffle them into the Instructional League after the season.

 

[Enscheff]

Unless they skip Bryce Ball all the way up to the HoF.

fixed it for you

Fun fact: Pache has nearly 1700 MiLB PAs, and only 8 of them came against pitchers younger than him.

We said this about Ozzie as well. I don’t think he ever hit against a younger pitcher. It’s encouraging as hell

 

[Southcack77]

The AAA team now seems ridiculously loaded, while anxiously awaiting Riley for the stretch run.

Big chunk of the hole in the Braves farm has perhaps now moved from Rome to Mississippi.

That is a fun fact indeed. I probably have hyped him up a lot along the way, but it's good to see him project to be above average as a player in the majors. Happy for him and all the other players promoted. It's going be fun watching that Gwinnett team.

I’d imagine Drew is in the same boat.

 

[Tapate50]

Fun Fact:

We need some of these guys at the lower levels to develop their asses off

 

[zbhargrove]

Tucker is really turning into a legit rotation prospect who should probably be breaking into top 100 lists

 

[Southcack77]

Looks like Gwinnett is adding Duda for the stretch run as well. Giddy up.

Waters with three rips in AAA Debut
