Is there any top pitching prospect in this organization that doesn't have a severe injury.

We will see if Swanson comes back... would be nice to get the 2023 version. But let's be realistic, he might not even make it before getting hurt.

When Tyler Heineman is your best hitter in this lineup, you got problems.

Heineman should have been the one to get the Vlad deal.

Power, average, and now speed. Heineman is the complete package.

2 on, 2 out and Vladdy comes up. Predictable result.

Vlad needs to get it together. This is embarrassing.

Holy heck, Daulton Varsho.

An extra bases saving catch, and robed of a 6 RBI game by a Springer GIDP.

WOW.

What is going on in our MiLB pitching system? It feels like every top pitching prospect ends up needing surgery, going back to Pearson.

The 'wow'? It's been an amazing game.

The missed RBIs? Spring GIDPed just before his first HR, so he only got one RBI on that one, instead of two or three.
