bmags Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 I probably don’t talk about Forbes enough. Repeating the level, but he’s upped his power by a lot while cutting his k rate. Near .300 now, has to have checked every box this year. If he improves power through Birmingham he’ll be really interesting.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Sean Williams @SeanW1754 25m25 minutes ago More Nick Madrigal just made an incredible diving play to get a force out at second-base. Wow. He apparently glove flipped it from his chest to 2B for the out. That's pretty sexy considering that's never a play he would have likely ever made playing 2B.
