Laz is having a horrid start in Everett. They is literally Nothing to be excited about in the entire org right now with position players.
Smith, Peete, Emerson are all doing well in Modesto. Peete will need to add power, but I think he will. Arroyo is doing well in Everett and Young doing well for a 20 year old in Arkansas. They are all a few years out. Not worried about laz though. Still early lots of guys take time to figure out a new level

Looks a bit like Yordan's path to the big leagues

Keith Law of the Athletic has put out his mid-season Top 60 prospects list that includes 5 Mariners.... Emerson, Celesten, Arroyo, Ford and Young. Non-Athletic subscribers can actually look at the list via the NYTimes. Here is the link

4 HRs in 267 PAs seems a bit low for a #5 prospect. He supposedly added weight but still only 2 in 150 PAs this season. That is 8 per 600 obviously.. :?

He's the only player Law feels is untouchable
“Emerson is the only guy I would say, ‘We’re not trading him,'” Law said. “There’s too much upside. He’s too advanced. I think he’s gonna move really, really quickly. I can’t imagine the player (as a trade return) who would justify doing that.”
