My prospects have gone 18-3 in Spring Training so far, although in all fairness my bullpen is all Major League relieves due to a farm system weakness there.

I know they are playing against other farm systems essentially, but I'm starting to wonder if some of these guys might be ready to make the jump sooner than later.

My answer is no, they're not nearly ready. But it's a sign that when they do get ready, they may do you well.

I took a look and none of your AAA guys have even spent a full season there. And looking at their SIs, they would get killed by big league pitching. Just IMO.

Interesting to me is I've never had a spring training lineup that consistent from top to bottom as yours is. I'll typically have 3-4 guys perform like studs and just as many hit below .200. I think that's probably the curse of small sample size. I would not read too much into the numbers from spring training games, good or bad.

I've had a good spring too but I've got some 25 year old major leaguers getting reps in the field and a couple of middle relievers taking starts. Those guys are performing accordingly. I would be afraid your stats are more due to a favorable schedule with matchups. But you definitely should enjoy their success.
