Unknøwn Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Ross should be back in Atlanta on schedule and Blanco I bet is having some tough mental issues right now going from the 25 man roster last year and battling for an everyday role to the minors so his slow start doesnt suprise me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.C. Collins Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Wow Freeman and Heyward are in Mrytle Beach.....I would think they would be in Mississippi at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ransack Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Wow Freeman and Heyward are in Mrytle Beach.....I would think they would be in Mississippi at least.At their age High A ball is a pretty good place to be. They could both be in AA by the end of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToP-oF-tHe-ClAsS Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Do we have any top prospect third basemen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknøwn Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Do we have any top prospect third basemen?No none of our top prospects are at third base in fact I dont even think we have a third base prospect thats worth mentioning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLBrave Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 No none of our top prospects are at third base in fact I dont even think we have a third base prospect thats worth mentioningWe don't really. The only guy (can't recall his name) we have that is decent is more of a defensive specialist. Doesn't look like a major league caliber hitter.

D^3 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 From what I've seen so far there aren't many hitters on the AAA squad right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Snellvillain Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I thought Heyward was supposed to be designated to Gwinnett, what ever happened to that? Or was he just expected to make his way up to Gwinnett by the end of the season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or was he just expected to make his way up to Gwinnett by the end of the season?Heyward will probably never play AAA. He will get time at AA, then jump to the majors, much like Francouer & McCann.
