Another solid weekend from Ranier, brought his WM statline to .273/.370/.455. His June state line is strong with .340/.429/.623 so far. 2 1 Quote

An Erie/Toledo season in ‘27 could mean ‘28 with the big squad. Quote

LongLiveMaroth Posted June 23 Posted June 23 Because I know you all are clamoring to know how the big 2026 IFA signings are doing here is a quick SSS update. Manuel Boliver (C) - .342/.447/.421 Randy Santana (OF) - .237/.442/.368 Oscar Tineo (SS) - .231/.373/.333 This is a 13-15 game snapshot so far but Boliver seems to be as advertised. Quote
LongLiveMaroth Posted June 23 Posted June 23 (edited) We have some promotions. Christensen was a 15th Rd pick from last year RHP out of Central Arkansas sporting a 2.55 ERA with a 56/8 K/BB ratio. 06/23/26 RHP Charlie Christensen assigned to West Michigan Whitecaps from Lakeland Flying Tigers. 06/23/26 RHP Eliseo Mota assigned to West Michigan Whitecaps from Lakeland Flying Tigers.

Pitchers are only allowed 1 disengagement this year (compared to 2 in the majors) and SB's have really taken off. Wonder if that's something we will see in the next year or 2 in the majors. Quote

4hzglory Posted June 24 Posted June 24 Liranzo now up to an .810 OPS with his 9th HR of the year. Still only 22 and now becoming a decent catcher. It took Dingler a bit at each level. Dingler is the much better defender but Liranzo is farther ahead offensively than Dingler was at his age. 1 Quote

LongLiveMaroth Posted June 26 Posted June 26 As we get closer to the 2026 Draft lets take a look at some of the 2025 Draftees Jordan Yost - .261/.398/.359 (More walks than strikeouts and the expectation was not to have a ton of power but a good hit tool) Michael Oliveto - .154/.313/.231 (This is a 5 game sample size as he was injured for the first part of the year with a broken toe) Malachi Witherspoon - 5.12 ERA 58K to 18BB (So far has a real Jekyll and Hyde game log, twirls gems one start and then blows up the next) Ben Jacobs - 4.20 ERA 74 K to 28BB ( The ERA is really inflated by his last outing in which he went 2.2IP with 9ER otherwise has been the darling of this draft so far) Caleb Leys - 5.01 ERA 38K to 22BB (Not great getting lit up like this in the FSL for a college pitcher) Ryan Hall - He has had one start in the FCL did not go well, coming off of an injury Grayson Grinsell - 5.04 ERA 53K to 20BB (Lots of 4 and 5 ERA's here in the FSL) Cale Wetwiska - 3.38 ERA 11K to 4BB (Injured but just started throwing again) Nick Dumesnil - .174/.280/.360 (Yikes, thought he was going to be a steal for this draft, probably why I am not a scout) Trevor Heishman - Injured Edian Espinal - .338/.444/.494 (Almost 50 games in and these are video game numbers, I am guessing the only reason he is still at the FSL is because they want him to focus on defense being he is a converted 2B otherwise no reason he should still be in Low-A) River Hamilton - Injured 3 1 Quote
