Man alive, actually seeing these names on rosters is giving me a different feeling for our system than I’ve had over the off season. As we all know Colby’s the only blue chipper but these rosters are absolutely packed with interesting prospects. For those of us who love to follow the day to day happenings with the farm clubs it’s really been a dreary century so far but this season could be the start of a whole lot of fun. We shouldn’t be looking too bad in the low minors either and a potentially good draft on the way. It should help to take the sting out of a tough season for the parent club.

We are set up for some massive trades once they decide who is gonna be around on the big league club mid year.

Extra starters, relievers, pitching prospects.

Butt load of Outfielders.

Can’t wait to see what Mo pieces together.

Are you putting Mortensen in Springfield starting day 1, or do you think he just moves up quickly and spends the bulk of his time there?

I was looking at your preview here, trying to figure out where all of the relievers fit, and I’ve come to a conclusion: this organisation has way too damned many relievers.

They need to start about two more farm teams just to have room for all of them.

Come to think of it, I think I see the logic here. Considering the big league club’s direction the last year or two, maybe they’re planning on converting all of these guys into starters in the majors. I’ve got you pegged, Dave Duncan. Indeed I do.

I think Tyler Norrick will be put in the pen in springfield this year.
