A Few quick thoughts-

Change she is a commin-

Let’s talk about a few changes to look for starting next week.

First- Roansy Contreras has graduated and is no longer considered a prospect, so I will be removing him from the updates moving forward.

Second- I am going to take Brennan Malone out for now, he just cannot stay on the mound. I’m still hopeful on Malone, his stuff is simply electric but for now we can’t see that.

Third-As some of the picks sign we could see some movement, namely Temarr Johnson who should slide right behind Davis as the number 3 prospect in the system.

Good Things come to those that wait…..for adjustments

I won’t spend too much time on this, but I’ve notice a lot of the same people who screamed for Oneil Cruz to be on the 25 man roster since before the season began are now screaming he needs to be demoted. My dudes, please breathe. Many prospects struggle in the early going for different reasons. Let the kid make some adjustments.

Stick a fork in him

As many of us know Hudson Head was the key piece in the Joe Musgrove deal, and he came with a lot of deserved hype. But I just don’t get how he’s still in A+ ball. I’m even starting to wonder if his mental side of the game is being permanently damaged, help the kid out and send to a level he can get right, please!

Rollin,’ Rollin’, Rollin’!
