<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->First-round draft pick Andrew Cashner hasn't pitched yet, but Piniella said he's already on the fast-track to the majors.
"He's not going to spend too much time in the minors," he said. "Just from watching him pitch and throw, you can't tell he's only a year out of college. He's right in that group that has been around baseball three, four years now, experience-wise. … This kid is a college kid. It's not like he's out of high school, so I would think they can be aggressive with him."<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
