At 25 or younger I would put him in the majors if he already has 3 years in AAA. Otherwise, I would only bring him up if you think you can get him some playing time (at least 10-15 PA/BF) during the week. Or if he has been recommended to the majors for over a year already. BTW, I have a lot of guys not reach their potential, so don't take my word as gospel. Just my opinion. Updated Tuesday, October 18 2016 @ 5:46:04 pm PDT |

Rock777 Joined: 09/21/2014 Posts: 9568 Haverhill Halflings III.1 | He only hit .192 in AAA, so I don't know if I would expect him to be a great hitter. But it probably wouldn't hurt to put him in AAA if you aren't planning to play him. One caveat: if you already have played him in a couple games since last Friday, I would just leave him on the major league squad until after the training update. | ||

Although as a POT 12, he is pretty close already, so maybe not. Either way if he is going to get 0 innings, I'd leave him down. At 22 he has plenty to time to reach his potential.
