He'd better develop the mental wherewithal to stop doing that or he'll never live up to his hype.

Steal with your brain, not with your legs, that's what I always say.

DPD. Named to the futures game roster. Slightly less duh but still duh.

Jesse Rogers wrote a bunch of words about Baez and basically, he's back and awesome (Baez, not Rogers.)

Also:

"His power is better than mine at that age, and he's a really good fielder. Wow."

I'm not sure Manny is a great judge of fielding, but I'll take the first part as being pretty great.

Manny is already embracing a meme.  Many power.  Such glove.  Wow.

Does someone have to be considered a really good fielder to evaluate defense? I'm pretty sure Manny is not worse at catching baseballs than you or I for instance or even Jep Thoyerstink but we'll weigh in nontheless. This is great news.

He might be up when rosters expand in September.  But he's not on the 40-man yet, so maybe not.

Absolutely - though I saw this on Twitter today. Very promising.

Seems like a pretty clear sign that he's figuring the league out and putting it all together. I might start writing homoerotic Parksian scouting reports in celebration.

He might as well work on it with the major league coaches.  He sure isn't going to drop the Cubs any lower in the standings.
