Tiger Cubs (notes on the minors)

[Arlington]

Maybe they've already ordered an outfielder's glove for Colt.  He could be the next Shane Halter.  

 

Hinch Heaven  He could sub for any player at any time.

Anderson RH : 2b 3b

Lee RH : 2b 3b

Baez  RH 2b SS 3b CF

McKinstry LH SS 3b RF

Keith  LH 2b 3b 1b

McGonigle LH  2b SS 3b

Possible if you carried 4 outfielders and 2 catchers.

Not at all. The take away was to remember that just because a player tears up the AFL is no particular indicator of whether they are  close to an MLB call-up the following season -- or not.

As you posted, Briceno followed a great AFL with a strong performance at......AA.

what does his age have to do with it? The point is that Briceno demonstrates that the AFL is an easier league than AA - much easier.

I'm not knocking Briceno - just using him as a yardstick

While that's true, it's still something that out of all of the hitters (who have the same advantage), we have had the last 2 MVP's  who were not old for for the league. And it's also nice Anderson did so well this year.

I would always rather see good statistics than bad statistics.  It might not mean anything, but it also might mean something.   Players go through hot streaks, cold streaks and periods of adjustment making small sample sizes very sketchy, but the more good stretches a player has the better.

No doubt.
