GreenSox Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 (edited) QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Aug 9, 2015 -> 10:18 PM) Yup. I want to see Tim at AAA to get taste for next season. I wonder how much better AAA is than AA. AAA is replete with org. guys. Charlotte has maybe 3 real Sox prospects on its roster. I guess the org guys are better than the average AA fodder. Eddie Alvarez is a monster. Edited August 10, 2015 by GreenSox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not real familiar with how different each level is so someone will correct me. But I'm guessing there's a bit of a gap with AAA because you have some vets there, guys repeating it and top prospects up there. Just my two cents.

Quin Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Aug 9, 2015 -> 10:07 PM) I wouldn't mind bumping up Alvarez and Anderson each up a level, and let Rondon go back to A+. They could get a couple weeks taste of the new level and make adjustments in the off season as needed. I didn't even notice that Rondon is in AAA. Ooof. Talk about do or die.

I assume Rondon's AAA stint will be shortlived, although I wouldn't mind them putting him into a utility role maybe next year. If his glove is as good as advertised he could be a nice bench guy. Wouldn't hurt to see if he can handle the mentality that requires though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his glove is as good as advertised he could be a nice bench guy. Wouldn't hurt to see if he can handle the mentality that requires though. Especially with his weak bat. Not worried about him losing regular ABs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that many good prospects struggle in AAA at first despite doing well in AA tells me it's a better brand of ball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Right now the Barons are leading their division for the 2nd half which would put them in the playoffs. That's both a "playoff baseball experience" for those guys and extra games under pressure for guys like Tim. Charlotte has a shot but right now they're 2.5 games out of the "wild card" spot for their league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an injury thing. They had just brought in Sellers to fill a spot, and then he got hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
