Butter Parque Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Anyone know anything about Kevin Escorcia from the DSL? It looks like he's 18/19 years old. I believe he was signed for a $50,000 bonus by Marco Paddy in 2012. Seems to have gotten off to a good start in the DSL. Any chance he makes it over to the states for rookie ball?

Feeky Magee Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 My favourite Ravelo stat is that he hit 3% better than league average at low-A in 2013 despite hitting .226 with no homers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance he makes it over to the states for rookie ball? Pay almost zero attention to DSL stats at this point in the season. Maybe after they've played 30 games or so the numbers will start to mean something although the DSL is notorious for having guys put up meaningless stats (both good and bad) compared to their actual ability and or potential.

Any chance he makes it over to the states for rookie ball? As far as I can tell, there are about half a dozen players from last years DSL team that aren't on the roster right now, so I am not sure if there would be room for him to move up with those guys, plus all of the new draft picks coming in.

I think it's funny that a few months ago people were screaming for us to cut Dunn, guys have countdowns on their profile until his contract ends, etc and now we want to extend him. I love that he's having a nice season, but he will be 35 next year, doesn't exactly fit into our future/core plans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree overall, and I don't think there's a great chance that he's back, but completely ruling it out at this point seems premature.

Agreed and Ravelo just turned 22 and still hasn't hit for the type of power you would want out of a full time 1B/DH type. So even if Dunn is back on a 1-2 year deal, it's no big deal. Ravelo isn't the type of prospect where you HAVE to make room for him on the major league roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hopeuful for a nice power outbreak this year and it looked like it may be coming in April, but he's back to normal again now. Ravelo's ISO per month: April- .242 May- .105 June- ..075 Overall- .143 I do like Ravelo and hold some hope for future power, but he's borderline top 10 right now at best for me.

In a weak system, I think he's solidly in the top 8 for me, even without the power numbers. He's young for AA, and he's hitting .295/.398/.427 there. His ceiling would be a poor man's Eric Hosmer, which is just fine with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
