Cubs' Prospects FUTUREBONER thread

In other great news, 17 year old Gleyber Torres was promoted to Boise

This is actually crazy good news.

He was the 11th youngest guy in rookie ball, and now he's been promoted to low-A where he's the youngest guy in the Northwest league by a half a year. 

17 years old, and he's got a 29/33 BB/K ratio. YEs, please.

Is 29/33 good significant?

Are you new here'd?

I did a little research on my own and found out to my astonishment that Gleyber Torres is not a pitcher. So those K/BB rates check out.

Great thread. Would definitely read again!

He's been described as a "16 year old Soler". So hopefully now he's a 17 year old one.

I'm surprised I'm apparently all alone in disliking Parks.

I have no opinion but I have to admit his creepy sexy language about young dudes makes me laugh.

Give me reasons to hate him other than Javy's night blindness and I'll probably join you. I love hating things. It's what I'm best at.

I think his homoerotic "baseball prospects make me feel sex feelings" schtick is lame at best and sort of offensive at worst.

He also didn't rank Soler as a top 50 prospect in his midseason list this year. BURN HIM.

You must be some sort of masochist if you continue to visit this messageboard then.

He's just doing what any of us do after we've been to the restroom.
