Minor League Ball Gameday, August 5

Good evening prospect watchers. Sorry about the late discussion thread today. Apparently there is something big going on in the news in regards to baseball. I've been trying to figure out what to say about it, but the bottom line is that it has been more than a decade since I gave a rats ass about Alex Rodriguez, and I won't pretend otherwise.

You can talk about the Biogenesis thing if you like. The only prospect involved is Cesar Puello of the Mets, and we've already talked a lot about him lately. At this point we just need to wait and see how he plays after his suspension is served. I'm assuming he's playing clean at this time, but the burden of proof is on him in 2014 to prove that his apparent progress is real.

***Tomorrow's Prospect of the Day will be Engel Beltre of the Rangers.
