This Naswell Paulino kid is roasting the DSL. No idea what his stuff is like, but he was one of our more expensive signings in last year's capped class.

 

He just turned 17 three months ago too.

 

Good, good... *rubs hands together*

Former prospect Dickie Joe Thon signs with the Atlantic League Sugar Land Skeeters.

Any reason we don't see Pentecost up to AA yet. He as been very good in A+.

 

In addition to the other answers here I thought I read something about protecting him from the Rule 5.

There are minor league portions where all you have to do is move them up a level to keep them but I think if they are in AA or above they must be on the major league roster. Right?

[Jimcanuck]

Luis Robert came back today.... 1 PA and pulled.... knee injury could be worse than letting on

[Angrioter]

How much is Pentecost actually catching

 

Pentecost' catcher glove funeral very soon.

In the long run, probably profiles better as a back of the bullpen guy. This is his first full season, so they will take it easy with him. New Hampshire next year.

Who's that?

Pentecost, likely.

Borucki and Robson promoted to AA.

Andrew Case up to AAA.

Funny if all of their Dads were at the game. Crowds in the FSL are like 200 people and you'd have 2 HOF and another great player in the stands.

That would be pretty awesome to pull up a seat beside the 3 dads.

What is Cavan's upside? Utility IF? It would be cool if all three came up and became MLB players at the same time, but Biggio seems like a longshot.

Utility IF is as good as I think we can really expect from Biggio.

Most likely.

 

But he has upside to be an OBP guy with above average speed and good defense. He's cleaned up his swing a lot since being drafted.

[burlingtonbandit]

Can he even play SS? I thought he was 2B only.

He's the Justin Nicolino of the three guys.

f*** this pic just reminds me of Marcum, Mcgowan, Romero and Morrow. THE FUTURE

 

That definetly worked out.

Luckily all of these guys have a very big dissimilarity between the ones that you mentioned.

All four of them made it to the majors and had varying levels of success. Injuries were their biggest enemies, not their talent level.

Plus, they were pitchers.

It wasn't about their position or anything. Sportsnet is going to come out with a lovely episode one day on these three and their going to get are hopes up so high and bam.

 

I'm just playin around. ha

[Orgfiller]

Also saying that Marcum, McGowan, Romero and Morrow were the future is egregious. McGowan was long dead by the time Morrow was in the picture, and when the latter emerged as a great SP for us Marcum was traded for Lawrie.

[Caper]

Ol' Tim Tebow doin ok. It has to be better then most baseball insiders predicted. I still think he is just starting to late to make it much higher. But he's doing ok.

 

Maybe he'll get some sort of Adam Loewen type look at some point.

[John_Havok]

Pearson moved up to Vancouver
