I don't think you are. On the majority of these types of lists "potential" is really heavily calculated, and players below AA a lot of times have not had their warts exposed yet. I found the Astros list to be rather peculiar based on what I have heard. Who knows.
It seems to be getting worse when it should be getting better. I understand tracking information should help teams figure out what lower level prospects are likely to develop better, but at the upper levels, a lot of questions have already been answered by the prospect such that only thing less is to prove whether they can hit MLB pitching.
Baseball America mentioned in their update that Peter Solomon had TJ. No information on Dubin, though. Jose RIvera wasn't in the top 30, but was listed as a riser.
Tyler Ivey is now officially off the IL. He got the start for Fayetteville in the first game of their doubleheader and he walked one and struck out two over three scoreless innings. Jonathan Arauz also hit his 7th home run.
Seth Beer just hit his 22nd home run of the year. It's a three-run homer that gives Corpus a 4-1 lead over Northwest Arkansas in the 7th inning. J.B. Bukauskas: 6 IP, 7 H, ER, 2 BB, 9 K
Seth Beer's splits are now .286 .942 vs righties, .317 .966 vs lefties. So much for the notion he can't hit lefties. Stellar outings by Ivey and Bukauskas. Among recent outings by Paredes and Sneed, our pitching prospects are really starting to hit their stride right when we were about to call it a lost season. Let's hope it continues.
Parker Mushinski is rehabbing in the GCL Whitley went 2IP 1H 2R (1ER) 4BB 5Ks in his rehab appearance.
This season has been an absolute disaster for Schroeder. His day is done going 0.2 IP with 1H (that could have been an error) 4R 4BB 1K. Fastball was in the low 90s.
Okay, how concerned are we about Whitley? There’s something very very off with him. Not sure if it’s mental or physical but he’s a completely different guy than he was in spring training.
