John Lamb promoted to AA


along with Danny Duffy according to reports. What a year John Lamb is having so far, the kid just turned 20 years old and has been cruising the last few months.

 

Also, Michael Montgomery is reportedly ready to head back to Northwest Arkansas, KC's AA team. Nice to see him back, hopefully he is fully healthy now.

 

Is this now the most stacked pitching staff in the minors?

"Is this now the most stacked pitching staff in the minors?"

uh, yes. i’d venture to say those 5 would be a better starting 5 then a third of the majors.

Agreed

That’s straight up nonsense.

Yeah, not at all

They may have more talent concentrated in these arms than some MLB rotations, but none of these guys are ready to pitch in the majors at this point. It would be ugly.

Right now?

I don’t think any of those guys could hold their own in the majors right now.

Hotlanta

I’d make a case for Atlanta, With Teheran, Beachy, Delgado, Vizcaino, and Hoover. Put a gun to my head, I’m probably taking Atlanta’s group. It’s really close though.

KC crushes Atlanta in hitting though. KC’s farm system is without a doubt the best in the minors right now, right?

It would be awfully close if Vizcaino was healthy

With him out, KC’s group is tops there. And yes, I’m not sure anyone can match KC’s farm system at all.

the Atlanta pitchers are not all on the same team

Which I think was the intent of the question stated in the OP

by jibs on Jul 28, 2010 1:28 PM EDT up reply actions  

Right

And regardless, leaving out Minor for Hoover is pretty goofy.

Whoops

Totally forgot Minor, you’re right

Re:

But all those guys aren’t at the same level. All of the KC guys listed above are now in AA NWA (I believe).

tragically I probably won't be able to see him in Frisco

Family is still going to be in town at that point, so might have to see him before or after along with the other guys.

No worries though, as I still have plenty of other reports for you guys in the queue. :) Also expect an announcement of sorts before too much longer concerning future TL-related content from me . . .
