over under 25.5 hr's for meso this year
I'll take the over, but just over. I hope he stays at AA the rest of the year. He's still very young.
Dubito Ergo Cogito Ergo Sum.
I assume (and hope) he'll be in AA the rest of the way baring injuries, save perhaps a late season call up to AAA if someone in AAA gets bumped to the majors. Spend the rest of the year in AA, hopefully putting up similar numbers as he has previously this season, play all year in AAA next year with Grandal playing in AA next year, then off to the show the following season.
