Cespedes is one of BA's top FCL prospects to know. In a couple of years, once Mayer, Anthony, and Teel graduate, Cespedes will probably be the number 1 prospect. He might be, even if all 3 haven't graduated. Have a strong feeling Cespedes will rocket his wat through the system and within 3 to 4 years will be the long term 3b as Devers spends the back half of his contract DHing. My guess is Mayer comes up at some point in 2025 or 2026 and pushes Story to 3b, assuming he ever stays healthy, and then as Story's deal is expiring, Cespedes forces his way to the 3b job, an infield of Casas, Grissom, Mayer, Cespedes, the baseball gods willing. Will it happen like that? Nah, too neat, but it's certainly fun to think about. I'm just super excited about Cespedes. I think if he stays healthy he will be the real deal.

FCL game 1 lineup:
Franklin Arias SS Raimundo De Los Santos CF Kleyver Salazar C Andruw Musett 1B Starlyn Nunez 3B Karim Ayubi RF Yohander Linarez 2B Armando Sierra DH Kelvin Diaz LF
Luis Jerez SP
Cespedes might still be banged up. Also no Mikey Romero - I believe Speier said he would be rehabbing with the FCL to start their season.

Raimundo De Los Santos batting second is interesting. They usually tell you what they think of everyone by the batting order. He signed a year late for under 10k and then didn't do great in the DSL.

To your point, led off in July and August for one of the DSL affiliates. May have turned a corner in August looking at monthly splits.

Starlyn Nunez with a three-run HR in the first. Ended up going 1-5 with the HR. Also had three errors. Salazar reached base three times (1 hit, two walks). Musett had three hits.

Those kind of innings (Seadogs) make minor league baseball awful to watch.

Lots of unearned runs against Bastardo. Checked to see who made the error and it was #5 for Mayer. That’s a lot for 22 team games and a bit less for him.
Not a great start defensively.

Eddinson Paulino is at .290/.402/.537 after a double and a walk. He's been the best performer in the high minors among the ranked prospects so far this season. 13th youngest hitter in the Eastern League

Blaze Jordan is your Injury of the Day as he leaves after sprinting to first. Stream didn't show anything but he stayed on his feet at least it seems like
