    Should Hotchkiss get promoted soon?

    He spent two seasons in Rookie Ball.

    One full season at the next level.

    He's been at the next level all season.

    He's only given up 35 hits in 50 innings.

    At 24 years old, is he ready to be challenged at AA?

    I think he's ready. I'm hoping he gets the opportunity in the next two weeks.

    Since about the midpoint of last season, he's been aces. He became a starter late last year, was moved back to relief early this year, and now he's back starting again. If he were to be promoted, the question would be: in what role?

    As a starter. But, it would probably be best to wait for 3 more starts to happen first where he's at right now. I don't see him being any different through his next 3 starts than what he's been doing.

    He has kicked around long enough. At his age it's time to make a bid to reach MLB. AA is where a player shows------or goes. Give him a nudge up the ladder.
