saw part of his outing before milb started cutting out.  

pounded the strike zone.  strike after strike after strike.  ahead on almost every batter.  I'm sure the Angels will fix that.

I counted seven of the 9 on fastballs up in the zone and two on that filthy slurve thing.

Kyren Paris hit an RBI-single and followed that with his 7th stolen base already this season.

Interesting that Oliver Otega has been used in the Bullpen this season! which is the role that I believe he fits in and hopefully he dominates and can help the big league roster as they seriously need his arm.

I noticed the same as well. That fastball must be touching triple digits in the pen pretty frequently.

Kochanowicz got roughed up a bit: 2 IP, 3 Hits, 3 ER, 2 Walks, 2 Ks.

Livan Soto has three hits tonight, including a 2B and HR. He's hitting .310 with a .961 OPS.

wouldn't be surpsie and outside of his first apperance he's looked good.

Guys, Paris has another two stolen bases (8) and two hits tonight. He also has a walk and RBI. He's hitting .348 after an 0-4 w/ 4 K's on opening day.

My comp for him was Jean Segura. The Angels were extremely high on him at the alternate site and we can see why. Hoping to see him make the jump to High-A and shoot up prospect lists.

Like a Howie and Segura hybrid.

I'm growing bullish on Livan.  For no other reason than I want to hear his walk up music when he gets to mlb.  

Seriously though, I wonder if he's starting to put on some man weight.

I'm hoping the glove sticks at shortstop.

I'm disappointed  in myself for it taking so long for me to catch on. I don't say this as often as I used to but my youth was showing.

The Paris Watch: when will he be promoted to A+? My guess is not until the second half (July), but you never know.

Livan Soto may turn out to be a good UT, fringe regular. I don't think he'll ever pack on enough power to fit the expectation of starting middle infielders, though, but he could get a regular gig somewhere.

I'm hoping Paris gets promoted by this Saturday. I'm going to see a Jordyn Adams-less Tri-Cities Dust Devils team play the Everett Aqua Sox. Outside of Adams there's not many other top prospects on that team. 

Who should I be keeping in eye on there this Saturday?

you might get Davis Daniel on the bump.  Not sure why they skipped a start for Aaron Hernandez but maybe him.  

Otherwise it's Livan Soto and maybe Adrian Rondon or Jose Verrier.

What was Detmers hitting on his fastball?

I still have hopes for him to contribute in the majors this year.

When will Marsh be activated and play in AAA?

[Second Base]

I think minor league placements were a little arbitrary this year because so many of the prospects basically took the year off. They went to the local high school field and dominated a bunch of 16 years old in BP and pick up games. The talent and competitive spirit had to be lacking. 

So right now, they're just seeing what they have. 

Paris is an exception to the rule, as I understand. He spent the layoff building muscle, and transformed his body. By the time the Angels invited him to the alt site, they believed they had a prospect that made a distinct developmental leap. 

Now that he's playing against other guys his age that were forced to high school field, you can see he's quite a bit more prepared to succeed. He'll likely move up by mid June if he's still producing. The competition will only get better as guys get back into the swing of things. 

But in general, I think a lot of guys will move around this year as teams get a better read.

Should be any day now.

This guy could be our future C. I believe he's thrown out every would be basestealer this season too. 

 

Does he pimp about it, though?
