Baseball America has Ryan McKenna on its mid-season All- Star team!! Congrats Ryan!!

Will be very interested in seeing how he does at Bowie over the final half of the season.  A strong finish here and he becomes a top-10 prospect for us, IMO.

He is moving quickly.  The organization needs some good news....Hope he gets hot and keeps going.

I don't want to rush the kid. Ideally my timeline would be 2020 or late 2019. I love this kid's attitude and work ethic. I dont want him or any of our other top prospects anywhere near this cesspool right now.

I'm in. Future regular. Late bloomer, not shocking given where he came from.

MLB.com: McKenna's 2 triples bump AFL OPS over 1.000

AFL line: .371/.476/.657 (1.133), 4 doubles, 3 triples, 5 RBI, 35 AB

I mean it's 35 ab's.... if he had a .500 OPS, that also wouldn't matter... but still, it's a nice cap to his '18 year.

Looking forward to seeing him back at Bowie, and see if he can get off to a good start in his 2nd time seeing the Eastern League.

Love this kid!

Anybody know if Mckenna viable in CF and what's the defensive assessment? Looks on the small side for a COF.
