How far away from the Bigs are they? 2010?<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Flaherty was just drafted last year and played in low A ball. It could be a year or two before he even gets a long look in spring training if he keeps performing well. I would guess he won't be a serious consideration till 2012.
Lee was sent to Australia for camp last year. He's only 18 or 19 years old and he'll be seeing his first action in the States this year. My guess is he'll spend most of his time in AZL and he'll be in the minors as long as Vitters and probably longer. Keep an eye on him though, he's a HUGE talent and if he picks things up well in the US, I am really excited about what he can do for this team a few years down the road.
