I’m hearing Delmarva now. I’m sure it’ll be a short stay.

OPS over a .1000 to start the year, move him to Frederick at the end of the month maybe?

Aberdeen.

My unfair nitpick is he has 1 professional HR. Kid def has the bat skills. Would like to know more about his D.

I think power is often the last thing to come so I'm not worried. Gunnar had 1 HR his first year in a similar # of PAs as Holliday has had. 2nd year was covid so no stats, I feel like the switch flipped at the alternate site.

 

Also curious about the D, I see he is still playing 2B a bit which surprised me some (7-3 SS-2B this year). They like position flexibility though it seems.

Not worried. He will fill out. He honestly might only be a 15 HR guy but if he sticks at SS and has great hitting skills otherwise it will more than play. Im thinking the Os just like to keep guys versatile in the minors as long as they can be versatile.

Frederick. I wish.


I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

His defense is very solid. Much better than Gunnar in 2021. Smooth, great internal clock, strong arm.

Here's your consolation prize.

 

Frederick's Atlantic League team signed Starlin Castro, who hasn't played in the majors since a 2021 domestic violence suspension. He played in Mexico last year. The team's release featured the manager saying the move "speaks volumes" about what the city and league can offer.

I can't believe they kept Delmarva over Frederick. Nothing personal against Delmarva, though.

I was going to say the same thing. He's walking a ton and striking out less than his short stint in Aberdeen to end last season. .161 BABIP so I'm pretty confident he'll hit his way out of this early hole.

Jackson is on MLB network right now.  He is an impressive kid.
