I'd like to see how he does in High A ball.

That's a very good point. He is a tools guy, so he may have figured things out. On the other hand, it might all go to shitsville once he hits AA.

He's had so much success in just his 4th season in the Midwest League. Just think, if we promote him, history suggests he'll be this good in the Florida State League by 2012. He should be MLB-ready by 2020 and all star caliber by 2024.

This is not some silly theory that's unsupported and deserves being mocked by photos of Xena.
