Hopefully Brendan Donovan can still hit when he comes back.
Cjinte has an ERA over 5.00.

Laz Montes gets the call up to AAA. Had a .755 OPS at home in Arkansas but a 1.075 road OPS.

Will be interesting to see how he does in the bat-friendly PCL.
Interesting about Montes, I was wondering why they would move him up with those numbers. That makes sense!

Hopefully Donovan puts up numbers that make the three players they traded for him irrelevant.

I watched Cjinte pitch for Springfield. I thought he had given up "switch-pitching", but yesterday he did switch to left handed twice against a left hand batter. He looked good, lot's of triple digit stuff.

Pretty sure Montes will crush in Tacoma.

I can't believe Celesten hasn't been promoted yet....

Apparently, Michael Arroyo is moving up to Tacoma as well. I would imagine we'll hear something about Celesten soon.

I don't know why they force their top prospects to hit in that Arkansas hell hole.

I wish the travelers would get the hell out of there.

Or at least spend a couple hundred K to reconfigure the ballpark. It is insane how cheap they are.....

Maybe they're promoting Montes and Arroyo so they look better as trade bait at the deadline

There is literally nobody available that I would trade Montes for.....Besides all they need is Relievers and RH hitting bench bat.

Yeah, I like Arroyo also, Good right hand bat, but I'd trade him. Untouchables for me are Cade Anderson, Ryan Sloan, Celestin.
Stephenson, and Montez are close to untouchable both high potential.

Agree with all that other than Stevenson. Almost 22 yo and still in A ball hitting .236. Decent OPS due to a bunch of walks but I would definitely trade him for the right return.....
