isn't it late in the season? What's it mean? They can't put him in AA again next season? They are now basically committed to promoting him next season?

If he hits well in the PCL. Fairly likely and hits well in ST next Spring they certainly aren't going to demote him back down to AA in April.

Vogelbomb is going to LOVE this. The will probably promote him in Sept next season and then he takes over for JP in 2027

Tacoma looks to be playing in playoffs and Arkansas is not so more playing time at a higher level would be my guess

I wouldn't think you want him in AAA for an entire season, if they think he is AAA level now then he would be projected to be promoted before September

Hollander also stated Tacoma needed an IF and they felt Emerson was best suited out of the choices

Where is he going to play? I guess if Ben still sucks he could play 3B and if Cole still sucks he could play 2B.

He is only 20 until next July. 5 months in tacoma isn't crazy.

I don't know much about it but I thought in terms of development it was. An elite prospect spending an entire season in AAA
