The Official Thread of Pachemonium

I'd like to see the improvement in walk rate continue, but if it does and he keeps hitting, I do think that he'll go up to AA. I was a little worried, but I don't think AA is "that" gunshy compared to the previous regimen. Just wants to see a little more than them.

Then if he does well in AA, and considering his profile I wouldn't be surprised if the "finally!" true breakout happens there, it truly becomes interesting what happens with the OF in the offseason. Really, while I'm not a big fan of him, that may make it make sense for you to sign Markakis for one more season.

Right now I'd say his ETA is late 2019-early 2020.

Pache walked in his first AB tonight!!
 
He's on a roll lately, which is good. ^^

And really has been quite good outside of his first 6 games at the level. Just the walks, keep up the improved walk rate for a couple more weeks and let's see a promotion to AA.

If we somehow hit on Pache then sky is the limit for this team.

He'll be up to AA any day now, I'd bet. 19 years and 5 months. Buxton defensively with an improving body and power. His ISO has more than doubled since last year.

What's the point of rushing him after 30 games at High A?

There really isn't one. Pache doesn't need to be moved up until later on this year if he proves he can hit this level consistently. Pache isn't going to factor in to the big club until mid-2019 at the earliest, so there is no reason to try to rush his development.

Acuna went from A+ to AAA last year, getting better at each stop.

Pache should be on a similar path, IMO. No reason to hold talent down.
