I just realized that Baez had 35 extra-base hits in 240 AA plate appearances last year. Good God, man!

Isn't AAA more of a hitters league, too? I think the PCL is like a network of Coors Fields. He's going destroy AAA pitching.

Also RE: Chuck's question - most of the projections have Bryant ending up in right field.

I don't think Baez will stay at short. Remember Rizzo's contract is tradeable if they want to stick him there. If Alcantara's worth a shit, he could play short with Castro moving to second. Or maybe somebody puts a quarter in Starlin and Alcantara plays second. Bryant plays third. Soler in right. Almora in center. Some big fat tree of a free agent plays left.

World Series.

The ideal look would be something like Baez at third, Castro SS, Alcantara 2B, Rizzo 1B, LF Soler, CF Almora, RF Bryant.

Naturally only 1 or 2 of these things will work out in any meaningful way which is why Parks titled his prospect report Prospects Will Break Your Heart.

Parks also said somewhere (Twitter?) That MIKE OLT! is a wild-card. If his vision is back to normal, and he's not bailing out on inside pitches, third base gets a lot more interesting.



I'm not going to stop doing this until he gives me my first FUTUREBONER.

Now that the Cougars have release their schedule, any interest in a group buy? They've actually got a nice picnic area there - very kid-friendly.

In actuality, my bff and I have talked about Kane County as a slight possibility for one part of my bachelor party. But, IIRC, they don't have an all-inclusive section

Is Kane County relatively hilljack free? I highly doubt Yeti and his ilk would make a dent.

Eastern Kane County is sort of the last outpost on the hilljack frontier.  Geneva, Batavia, St. Charles and Aurora aren't much different than any other Chicago suburbs.  

Western Kane County is basically Iowa.
