Another team's prospects thread

That's too bad, hopefully his recovery goes well.

[NYCrusader]

Dylan Bundy is kind of good.

[eaganmafia]

Miguel Sano

.256/.408/.692

[Jax Teller]

Jon Heyman ‏ @JonHeymanCBS #redsox 1st rounder matt barnes dominating too: 16 IP, 25 Ks, 6H, 2 BB, 0R. btw, o's bundy retired first 26 batters faced

[Snatch Catch]

Barnes was one of the only recent Sox draftpicks I've been unquestionably jealous of. He's got so much of what you'd want in an elite pitching prospect.

[eaganmafia]

Barnes better dominate a bunch of kids in the Sally.

Barnes better dominate a bunch of kids in the Sally.

It's been their MO recently with Ranaudo and now Barnes.
They start them in Greenville solely to get used to pitching on a 5 day rotation. Knowing they should dominate (and have) allows them to get acclimated to how to prepare on days 2-5 without fretting about results.
Ranaudo had 10 starts in Greenville last year before his bump to Salem. I would expect something similar with Barnes

[mentalgidget]

Will Middlebrooks is assaulting the International League.
Through 19 games he's at .375 with an OPS of 1.208.
8 hrs heading into today where he's hit another

With Youkilis struggling, it'll be interesting to see what the plan is if he keeps this up

[Yankees1962]

Youkilis isn't the only one struggling.

The sad thing is... being over .200 is actually better than most expected of him... myself included

[jeter62375]

It's only AA and he's 26, but Christian Garcia's line:

8
9 IP
3 H
1 ER
2 BB
12 K
1.00 ERA
3 SV

I always wondered why the Yanks didn't try him out of the pen.

[flymick24]

it's only a matter of time until his elbow explodes again

[False1]

Youkilis isn't the only one struggling.

Slugging <.200 that's impressive

[StaleMilk]

Miguel Sano

.256/.408/.692

Could of been had for money only. Was a terrible miss.

[awy]

oh but so huge risk

[Yankees1962]

The Rays do make mistakes too in drafting and developing players.

Paul Severino‏@SeverinoMLB
MLB: #Rays Tim Beckham received a 50-game suspension after a second violation for a drug of abuse. He was the #1 overall pick in 2008.

[NYCrusader]

Looks like it wasn't for any performance enhancing drugs.

Jon Heyman ‏ @JonHeymanCBS
Beckhams suspension is for a recreational drug. Not a great week for rays No. 1 overall picks (delmon was another)

Brackman up to his old tricks:

17.1 IP

9.87 ERA

[Big_Matt34]

Matt Barnes debut in High A Salem. 6 IP/4 hits/1 run/1 BB/12 k's. Damn.

And Jackie Bradley Jr needs to be promoted to Portland soon. His line on the season 366/488/538, 1.026 OPS, 22 walks, 17 k's, 11 steals and only been caught once. Also plays plus defense in CF, along with having a plus arm.

[Jax Teller]

Beat me to the punch. 1.2 scoreless innings so far against Cleveland.

Really should have kept him.

[philleotardo]

Interesting read on Bundy and his long-toss program. I feel like the Red Sox made Dice K scrap his long-toss after he came over. Anyway, I would have Pineda, Campos, Joba, Banuelos doing this religiously.

Longtoss isn't a universal program that works for everyone. For all the Bauers and Bundys it works for, it will destory 5-6 other arms.
