Haven't looked at all the pitching probables, but Kiker, S. Castro, and Chris Dwyer are pitching. Probably some other good ones too.

have to fill up the 75 word quota or whatever. so here's an interesting thing I saw from Ben Badler's prospect hot sheet chat.

    Brent (Appleton): Has Montgomery developed enough in his short time since the top 100 to justify a higher ranking? Or to put it another way—is he already a top 20 prospect in baseball?


Ben Badler: Yes. This guy is every bit as good as Casey Kelly, if not better, yet I get 20 times more questions about Kelly (well, not today). Three pitches at least above-average, good command, a good delivery, athleticism and complete domination in High-A as a 20-year-old? Not sure what more there is anyone could ask for from a pitching prospect.

i dunno, seems like jumping the gun because of mostly 1 awesome start. then again, if he improved the offspeed pitches as much as the hot sheet makes it seem like...maybe not ridiculous.
