    If he can keep this up in AAA he'll be up this summer

    He's good. So glad he's playing right field. He's too much an athlete to keep at first.

    Very cool. I’ve been following him. It seems the plan was to bring him to the majors next year, but moving him to outfield and now to AAA suggests to some observers that the team may be accelerating his progress. If he can start mashing against AAA, I would take a shot on him.

    I assume the pitching will be a step up from Dbl A

    Yeah, it will be a little better. His first game he went 1–4. I expect him to continue to do well.

    Typically there is an uptick in command.

    No. They have had him at first or left field thinking that left field is his fastest path to the bigs.

    And, just like that, Cags hits his first AAA homer.

    He is very talented but he ain't Babe Ruth.
