Farm System

I just found out who Hatch's head coach is...Josh Holliday. Guess who's brother he is. I'm fomenting a conspiracy theory.

[rok]

I'm already there.

Sooooo Happ promoted to AA. Also Nathan will begin his rehab assignment with the Smokies.

I'm not watching but it sounds like Eloy is doing stuff in the Futures Game.

He is no dainty Susan, that one. And he's not done growing yet.

He's a beast.  That was off Ryan Stanek it looked like.

19 years old...jeez. That dude is going to be built like an NFL safety by the time he's in his mid 20's

So, Vogelbach can't be in the Cubs system much longer, can he? I mean, he has to be part of nearly every AL trade scenario right now.

I would assume both Vogelbach and Candelario will be popular names coming up in trade rumors all month. Lots of redundancies at the corner IF spots up and down the organization.

Paulino's name has been popping up a lot lately as a rising star in the system. Now being promoted to SB. Would really be nice to finally have a top arm to follow down on the farm.

I was just going write a little something about him yesterday; he's been lights out in Eugene this year.

[jstraw]

I'm sad he doesn't get to go to Bancoober.

I really do realize that Torres was our top-rated prospect for ennui reasons only . . .
