FCL Sox just gave up an 8-spot in the 7th on 4 singles (one on a pop up to first) and 5 walks. Must've been a blast to watch.

Today was Cespedes’ first pro game at 2B. I was curious how they were going to handle this when Cespedes was healthy enough to play defense regularly, as Arias is enough of a prospect to make sure he gets regular starts at short as well. When the FCL season ends, seeing how they handle the infield throughout the system will be very, very interesting. If you assume Cespedes and Arias move up to Salem, how do they handle everyone else? Zanetello, Alcantara, and Anderson are getting MIF time in Salem (plus De Leon, although he's not as important these days). Greenville is already splitting MIF innings among five dudes. Mayer, Yorke, Paulino in Portland. We're gonna find out real quick who they think the priority guys are. |

Obviously they know all the players but would it ever be the type of thing where they try to leverage this type of potential logjam to get one of these guys? |

Teams scout players in terms of acquire/don't acquire. Maybe their Red Sox scout turns in a bunch of middle infielder types as acquires, but I don't see the Red Sox being backed into a corner because Marvin Alcantara can't play every day. |

Sogard's six homers in May have averaged 99 exit velo and 364' lol. Ride the wave buddy.

Some signs of life the last week or so He’s got one of those classic low minors K/BB statistical profiles where you wonder if there’s an element of over-passivity there. Also a super-low BABIP but not a ton of power, is any of that related to the hitting environment in Salem? More questions than answers at this point but nice to at least see signs of life. |

Is it time to challenge Bleis and bump him up? He's starting to really pummel the league which is a "not so great" for hitters location. Wasn't Anthony promoted early once he started to mash. |
