  1. Sorry for the confusion. Pentecost will start at 1st base in Dunedin. Zeuch will pitch for Dunedin this year...moving up quickly.
  2. I hope you don't mind me starting a new thread...sometimes these reports can get lost in the prospects thread. News from the complex today. Latos sucks... probably gave up 8 hits in a row in an inter- squad game along with showing some attitude. Travis hit the ball hard every at bat and made a great play in the hole to get an out. Gurriel is a physical specimen and hit a line drive single in the only at bat I saw. SRF dominated in his 3 innings ( there were 2 inter squad games on today) Talked to Christian Williams father who said his son would be in Lansing along with Biggio, Bichette, Vlady and Woodman. Will have to plan a trip to Lansing. Pentecost will start at 1st in Dunedin and according to Charlie Wilson, so will T.J Zeuch All the full season players leave tomorrow. I'll go again on Monday to see if they've started extended spring.
  3. Didn't get in. Can you open more spots or create another one and combine the results? It wouldn't let me ignore the credit card s***.
  4. How about $75 for 1st and $25 for second.
  5. My boy. Will send reports from A ball in April...heading down next week.
  6. Isn't that a beautiful stadium in Clearwater? If you get a chance head over to the Mattick centre off Salon and CR1 around 11 to catch most of the prospects and some of the big leaguers. Enjoy the game on Saturday.
  7. No. Unfortunately, I won't be there until late March and will stay until the first week in May. Will watch a lot of A ball and extended spring at the Mattick. I will also see the Jays for their 2 series at the Trop...first and last weeks of April. I buy the cheapest tickets ( under $20) and sit anywhere. Can't wait to get down there...will send reports.
  8. I have a friend who was at the complex today and has been going to Spring training for years. He was really impressed with Alford and Ramirez. I know it's early but it would be nice to get a couple of breakout prospects this year....can't wait to get down there. Fortunately, he will be sending me daily updates.
  9. I'm there all of April for A ball but will also try to get down for the last week in March...may need tickets then. I'll be going to the 2nd and 3rd games of the Jays / Tampa series at the Trop. Opening day of the series is usually sold out but I just get the cheapest tickets for the next 2 games and sit where I want...the place is usually empty. For those going down for the first time, I suggest that if you want to see the players up close and personal for pictures and signing, make a trip to the Mattick Centre. Players who do not make the away game trips and most of the top prospects are usually there working out or playing in a intra-squad game. It is very loose atmosphere and the best part , It' s free.
  10. I do the same each year at Spring Training,actually at the Mattick Centre where it's less formal. I still have Synderguard, Stroman, Sanchez, Vlady, Norris, Hoffman, D'Arnaud, Raines and many more prospects that never amounted to much....Kevin Comer, Deck McGuire etc.
  11. Can you recommend a place to stay in Lansing and how far from Lansing is Birch Run? Thanks.
  12. I'd make that drive from Niagara to watch him. Hopefully the following year he'll be in High A Dunedin and I can watch him for a month. I saw him in extended last year and was really impressed with the raw power....he also played a decent 3rd base. I've seen a lot of players in my 12+years of vacationing in Dunedin and no one stood out as much as Vladdy.
  13. From 71 year old Pablo Cruz, who was one of 4 recipients of 2016 Scouts of the year at the winter meetings on Vladdy Jr..." I've seen a lot of guys but I've never seen a guy with these kinds of tools". I concur.
  14. Always happy to share my observations, especially the low minors prospects in extended spring. Thanks for putting this together King. This board gets me through the months of baseball withdrawal.
  15. That's what I meant (I like you too).Lol
  16. Fowler at even 70M/4 plus Pearce is still less than what they were willing to pay Eddie...2 for the price of 1. Similar to what they did last year...Estrada and Happ over Price. I love this administration.
  17. Jays were willing to give EE four years at $80...They probably can get Fowler at four and $70+. For that $80, they would have Fowler and Pearce. I think that makes them stronger.
  18. If they had signed all of those guys, could have been one of the best drafts in Major league history by one team.
  19. Glad to see Vlady top this list. I have spent a lot of time in Dunedin watching these young guys develop going back to the Travis Snider days. As I mentioned to King, most of these young guys in spring training and extended spring tend to blend in together. In all those years, only 2 players really stood out from the rest...one was Vlady and the other was Thor with Sanchez and Hoffman a notch below.
  20. I didn't think about LGJ and I'm too lazy to correct my list but I would say he would still fall between 10 and 15.
  21. Stilson pitched tonight...era sitting at 14.09.
  22. Stilson is pitching in the Arizona Fall League and is getting lit up. In the games that I saw him pitch down there, his fastball sat around 97-98 but he walked too many and was getting hit hard.
