11) Velazquez12) PerlazaWe've been talking about these kids for 3 years.
Now, we're seeing them in action.
We're seeing what their games look like, compared to the established MLB'ers (Some All-Stars).
Velazquez went on to the Royals and slugged 14 HR's in 40 Games.
His combined slash: 52 Games / 17 HR / 34 RBI /
.586 SLG /
.888 OPS
Multiply by (3): 156 Games /
51 HR /
102 RBI Now consider this.
Last year, Velazquez was probably ranked around
9th on the
Talent Chart.
That speaks for the (Stone's throw away) talent we have.
And I haven't even mentioned the infield youngsters.
Morel, Busch, Shaw, Vazquez, Mervis, Triantos, McGrady, Slaughter, Strumph, Rojas.
Even the pessimist are beginning to see it.
I can't wait. Myrtle Beach, South Bend, Tennessee & Iowa, starting all over again.
Maturing talent, at all levels.
Multiple Championship MiLB Seasons - 3 years running.
Bring on the season. I hope you're ready.
