Anderson 1-3 SB

 

Delmonico 1-3 2B

 

overall what a great day for the minor league teams. some of the lower level players are just plain and simple raking..... nice looking youngsters there.

It's amazing to see how much speed is currently in our system, Eddy Alvarez is 4th in SBs in the SAL, Engel is leading the Carolina League in SBs, Anderson leads the Southern League and Saladino, Leury Garcia and Micah Johnson are all in the top 10 in SBs in the International League. I can't remember a time when we've had so many burners in the minors.

was it in baseball the cliche of you can't teach speed???

 

but i still love the positional players playing and developing. dang it, it is too bad that these kids are at least 2 yrs away.

Yep and if not for his injury, Jacob May would be right there with Anderson.

Reminds me of when I first started following the minors as a kid and thought Ruddy Yan was going to be the next Rickey Henderson.

This. This is when I was so naive about prospects and took everything that Phil Rogers said about them in the BA Prospect Guide to be the gospel.

 

That 80 stolen base season was something though he did nothing else.

Probably cause you had someone like me writing about how great he was going to be (if he could hit). That guy was fast though (Ruddy).
