I thought he was good solid ballplayer. Could fill a role and make majors as backup if he chooses organizations wisely. Good player but does nothing so well as to make you say "wow".
Just looked at Fellhauer's stats and he really dropped off last year. He had a bad average and his OBP, SLG and OPS all went down. Unless they have guys they want to move up from Dayton, there is no reason to bring him up to Double-A yet. I'd rather have Day's bat than the former.
Also, it'll be interesting to see if Carlson starts back in Bakersfield or not. Also with Jose Castro. They signed Welington Ramirez, he did bad (.237 avg, 6 HR) in High-A last year and could go back there, but could be moved up to Carolina.
Here's a quote from someone I texted in Double-A; "We're going to be good."
Yasmani Grandal has officially been moved from the Carolina roster to the Bakersfield roster as of this morning.
Smart in my opinion. I didn't see the need to start him there with Meso in AAA and Grandel's bat being questioned whether or not it was ready for AA.
Go Reds!
I'll try and find out a roster today. I may not be able to tell exactly but I can give kinda a general idea of what's going down.
Daryl Thompson still is listed as being in Carolina. Other than that and the Dallas Buck question mark, I think it is pretty much set. I would expect to see Smit's name come off when this is complete.
I don't know how accurate that roster is. I could be pretty close, but it very well could be way off.
Got a roster!
We gonna be good.
Hope you're right, 21, but I have to say that I'm skeptical. The teams at A and AA all stunk last year, so it's hard to see how it could be that much better this year at Carolina. I suppose it's conceivable that the stockpile at Louisville is holding back some folks who would otherwise be there.
Yea, it's a good mixture of guys from last year and new, but mostly the former. One only or two "surprises" for me that I saw. Rotation should be solid and bullpen (I think) can be good. Lineup will be very flexible.
