I love Gore but wonder when he’ll be called up. Bizarre that they haven’t moved him from High A.

Possible same route as Chris Paddack...Comment

Which is what? Start in the bigs at the beginning of 2020?Comment

I’m no expert but I’m guessing this year, he will get promoted to AA later in the year. For 2020, he will start the year in AA, if he destroys the hitters in AA, Padres will set up the same workload as Paddack, prob 125-140 innings. If he doesn’t, entire year in AA. Then in 2021, when he’s 21 years old, maybe he could get to 180 innings, going back and forth like PaddackComment

Ugh. He’s option year for me next year at $5. I will need to option him out or drop him.Comment

not that you didn't know he was good already, but in his first four games at High-A, at ten months younger than the second-youngest player (Nolan Gorman), Wander Franco is 9 for 15 with a double, two HR, three walks, zero strikeouts, and a steal.In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway.

Jo Adell looks ridiculous in AA - .380/.443/.608. The only weakness I've heard of for him is his high K rate, and he has that down to 16% with the walk rate up to 8%.
I thought people were crazy for taking him late in redrafts this year, and I thought that was a definite after his early injury, but he might actually get called up at some point anyway. He's special.Comment

He was my first round reserve pick in our AL only 5x5. That places his contract at $15A when activated. Not cheap, hopefully worth it. One of the few rookies that I have owned over the years that I consider untouchable...ish.Originally posted by Ken View Post
If he comes up I hope he doesn't get enough ABs to lose his rookie status. He would remain free for me at next year's auction.Comment

I'm in the same boat with 2 minor differences - (1) he's $15A immediately (although it doesn't count against the auction budget next year if he's still a rookie) and (2) it is a 15 team mixed.Originally posted by Gregg View Post
He's really fun to follow though.Comment

The Eloy Jimenez $15A Owner told me if I want him it will cost Adell and my $40B Gerrit Cole. I told him no.Originally posted by Ken View Post
As much as I like Eloy (traded him away when I had him) I am hoping Adell will be better.Comment

Luis Robert now in AAA. He starts with 4 for 8, and a two game ISO of .847. Over three levels, he's .353/.402/.637.
Will he be up in September if he keeps hitting? The White Sox have no one better to play.

Oh. In that case, never mind.

Robert I could imagine. Adell - he's really young, and Trout/Upton/Calhoun is a respectable OF. If someone gets hurt and they get a little closer to a playoff spot, maybe?In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway.
