We have a Pedro Martinez in our farm system?

It appears the Padres do. He got the save on a 4-1 Padres win in the dominican league.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I guess I should have looked a little closer at the box score.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
That's my bust. I copy and paste a lot in putting these together and I copied the wrong player's name. That line score belonged to Francory Pineda, who is in the Cubs system, not Martinez, who as Andy pointed out is in the Padres system.

No biggie. Thanks for continuing to post these. It's awesome.

Wow, that's a lot of doubles. If he develops any additional power some of those doubles will turn into HRs.

He has a good frame to add the power and is still only 21.

Lee is an impressive hitter for his age.

He also has an insane number of errors.

Shortstop - and he has the athleticism for it, so the errors aren't a huge concern yet. Lots of youngsters make tons of errors at short in the minors, as Clapp has noted.

Further, his age is debatable - in the good way. In Korea, kids are born at age 1, not 0. So it's possible that when they say he's 18, he's actually 17.

[Coldneck]

Who is Austin Biben Dirkx? I've never seen his name before. He is 24 years old which is quite old for A ball, but he does have 17 K to 1 BB ratio through 26.1 innings. i noticed he was drafted by Seattle. Did we get him as a throw-in in the Cedeno/Heilman trade?
