caulfield12 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 There's really something to be said for keeping all those kids together and in a winning/confidence-building environment. It's better for the organization and for their development...when they come to the big leagues together (2009-2011), they will already be very comfortable with each other and used to the idea of winning almost every game. It's perfect, I think. I would rather promote them directly to Chicago from AA, rather than sending them through Charlotte first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well my point is that I think he should have started the season in AAA. He clearly proved last season that he's done well enough in AA ball so far, so I don't really see the point of him repeating there, even if it's only for half a season.

BearSox Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I don't think so, he still needs to work on his plate discipline and cut down on K's. He struck out 41 times in about 150 AB's last year in AA. If he cuts that down this year though, he should rise quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
