Hitters
1 Bryce Harper WAS OF A+ Appears he's here to stay, especially with the Werth injury.
4 Billy Hamilton CIN SS A Slowing down. Only 2 SB in last 4 games. Up to 31 on the year.
5 Wil Myers KC OF A Beast mode - 4 HR in last 5 G, 11 for the year, 1.1145 OPS.
6 Manny Machado BAL SS A 0.67 EYE on the year and .310 avg in last 10 games, so he's settling in.
7 Miguel Sano MIN 3B A- 4 HR in last 6 G and a 1.091 OPS. Turns 19 this week.
8 Jurickson Profar TEX SS A .300 in last 10 G after slow start. Just wondering where he fits with the Rangers.
9 Anthony Rizzo CHC 1B A- 2 HR on Wednesday and now has OPS up over 1.000. Reportedly could be a corner OF in Chi.
11 Nolan Arenado COL 3B A- 5-for-11 in last 3 G but just 1 HR in first 117 at-bats. Still could get promoted soon.
12 Travis d'Arnaud TOR C A- A .766 OPS in the PCL isn't exactly impressive, so Arencibia is safe for now.
14 Michael Choice OAK OF A- Just 1 HR in 120 at-bats after blasting 30 in 467 last year. Odd.
Pitchers
4 Dylan Bundy BAL SP A 33:2 K:BB and zero ER in 20 IP. Time to promote him already.
5 Jameson Taillon PIT SP A Up to 5 IP/start after 4 IP last year. 33:6 K:BB in 30.2 innings and 1.76 ERA.
6 Tyler Skaggs ARI SP A- Could get the call if Corbin struggles again. 43:7 K:BB in 32.1 IP.
7 Gerrit Cole PIT SP A- 34:10 K:BB in 28 innings and should see the big leagues next year.
18 Trevor May PHI SP B+ .208 BAA and 40:12 K:BB in 35 innings. Who needs Cole Hamels?
