Which Minor League player in your teams Farm System are you looking forward to ?

Question

to be called up and play

Well Brett Gardner he was in the Major Leagues for a while , but I'm looking forward to see him again

and also I also want to see Alan Horne

Answer 1

Tigers-- Dontrelle Willis--if he gets pack to his old self maybe the Tigers will have some pitching.

Clete Thomas--started off great and maybe in the up-and-coming years he can be a big power bat.

Jeff Larish--another big left-handed bat the Tigers have waiting in the minors.

Answer 2

Well for the Orioles, I can't wait to see Matt Wieters come up. He's been killing the pitching down in the minors. It's only a matter of time before he comes up to the majors.

Answer 3

For the White Sox:

Chris Getz

Aaron Poreda

Lance Broadway

But I pay a lot of attention to the A's farm system because of the Kane COunty Cougars. Watch out for these players!

Corey Brown

Craig Italiano

Jemile Weeks

Tyson Ross

Anthny Capra

Michael Affronti

Aaron Cunningham

Chris Carter

Fautino de los Santos

AND.............TREVOR CAHILL!!!!! He will be AMAZING! Keep these names in mind!

Answer 4

Jake Fox OF For the tenessee smokies AA of the cubs he is great

Answer 5

For the Jays i would reall love to see Curtis Thigpen come up see what he can do. With Gaston he is really good with young guys and telling them not to worry they will get time in. Same thing with Travis Snider in the outfield and Russ Adams. Id like to see Adams back in the majors. He deserves it. But it may be difficult for some of these guys to get up. Thigpen will probably get up soon because they Jays will probably ditch Zaun or Barajas. But for Snider and Adams. We have a huge young outfield so it will be difficult for them. But the way injuries have gone they may be up sooner then i think.

Answer 6

Wow this question is asked every day!

Juan Miranda, Cody Ransom, and Alfredo Aceves!

Miranda is a young 1st baseman from Cuba who is hitting over 300 with 9 homers and over 40 RBI's in AAA

Ransom has 22 Home Runs and 70 RBI's in AAA and is an MLB veteran

Alfredo Aceves could help the bullpen as he is a young pitcher who has a huge upside

Answer 7

Nate Schierholtz and Buster Posey (if he ever signs with us) for the Giants.

Answer 8

Killzone said it all, Gamel and Escobar.

Imagine this offense:

C-BRETT LAWRIE

1B-MAT GAMEL(from 3B)

2B-ALCIDES ESCOBAR

3B-TAYLOR GREEN

SS-Hardy

LF-Braun

CF-Gwynn Jr./HERNAN IBARREN

RF-Hart

It seems too good to be true. But it is true. And to think it may be only two years away. No holes anywhere in the lineup.

~Prospects are capitalized~

Answer 9

Curtis Thigpen spent some time in the Majors last season with the Jays, but i would like to see him back up.

Same goes for Russ Adams above.

the two i can't wait to see play in the bigs; Buck Coats and Chip Cannon.

Coats is going to be a GREAT outfielder for us one day.

Answer 10

Haha, I'm a Rangers fan and I'd love anyone that can pitch!

Answer 11

Mat Gamel of the AA Sounds.  He has incredible stats down there, and is really the next Ryan Braun.  He's a fantastic offensive player, but is terrible on defense at third base.  We'll probably have to find a different position sometime.

Plus, I REALLY wanna see Alcides Escobar in the MLB.  He'll be one of the fastest players in baseball, and is a fantastic leadoff hitter.  He'd be able to get the things done in the leadoff position that Rickie Weeks can't, which is pretty much everything.

Answer 12

None! The Reds have called up everyone even close to being major league ready. Some of them aren't ready.

Answer 13

Drew Stubbs of the cincinnati reds.

Answer 14

Fernando Martinez.  He steals 50 bases a year.  Hits about 15-20 HR and drives in 75 RBIs. He is also young so he'll be on the mets for a while.  

*** The Mets have been asked to trade him in a deal with other minor leaguers for All Stars such as, Manny Ramirez and Matt Holliday...

The Mets Rejected the trade offers.

Great Question!

Answer 15

Chris Dickerson, Todd Frazier, and Drew Stubbs for the Cincinnati Reds

Answer 16

Well, the Giants have already called up alot of prospects, but i'm definetely looking forward to having Scott McClain or Nate Schierholtz.

Answer 17

Well in our system three guys:

austin jackson- 5 tool player, extremely highly regarded, double a right now, 22 years old, should make an impact in 09 or '10/

Mark Melancon- some say the next joba, throws heat, very young though so cant really tell. 23 years old. Could possibly replace mariano rivera

Andrew Brackman- throws 97 mph, great curve in single a right now. 22 years old. Coming back from tommy john however.

Alan horne is already 25 and has injuries in the past. I want to see him play but i think he is going to be a bust.

Answer 18

This year:

Micah Hoffpauir - This guy is amazing...In his short time with the Cubs earlier in the year, he batted .380...In his time in the AAA He is batting over .340 and hit 4 homers in 1 game recently!! I cannot wait for this guy to be called up in September and produce for my beloved Cubbies.

Future:

Josh Vitters: Last year there was a bunch of hype when he was drafted 3rd Overall. He is projected to have as much power as Alex Rodriguez and may be the next A-Rod. Right now he is playing A Ball but thats because of a set back due to an injury. Cant wait for him to be called up either next year or 2 years from now.

Answer 19

Lance Broadway from The Chi Sox

He is a really good pitcher, and with our injuries, at least put him in the pen.
