They must be so scared seeing his imposing frame in the on-deck circle.

If they start tonight's game but cannot finish before five innings, they might need another pitcher if there's a doubleheader tomorrow.

Where do you start Dalbec next year? I'm usually in favor of pushing college players to Salem - especially ones who have dominated to NY-Penn League as he has. But someone with his power but also his swing-and-miss issues might do well for a couple months in Greenville.

If he doesn't go extremely cold I would guess Salem. College bat who succeed at a low level after drafting. Success story

What's his K rate now, something like 22-23%? I'd probably start him in Greenville with a very low threshold for moving up. His HR power will be tested by Salem, that's for sure.

He made quite the jump from a guy that should be pitching to Benintendi with more power in a month.

I'm surprised no one has done any kind of in-depth look on Ball and whether or not he's made progress - or at least whether he thinks he has made progress.

Or if anyone has done it, I've not seen it.
