I like seeing Brian Pointer’s name in box scores. I have big hopes for him. Still searching for info on what’s wrong with Kevin Walter, I’ll share when I know.

My 2011 Top 30 Prospect List: Mid-season stock update
Busy times here at the site, but now with the draft over and on the back burner until mid August, I thought it would be good to look at my top 30 list and see how my rankings look, and also how my view of players may have been altered since I prepared the rankings in mid-December. This is a quick snapshot, and just my brief thoughts in passing, it is not a re-ranking of my top 30 or anything substantial like that. I’m going to simply categorize all 30 guys as follows:
stock up – the prospect has shown improvements that make me think I will be upgrading his standing after the season
stock down – the inverse of above
no change – nothing to change my opinion of the player
Do not try and infer a new top 10 or top 20 or top 30 from my comments. Again, these are brief snippets and takes on our guys right now. When I put together my top 30 this winter, it will require a lot more in depth review. This is just a quick update.
Quick note: I had started writing this last week, but then waited to publish, and forgot to do it, so some of the stats may be outdated. I’m sorry!

Box Score Recap, 16 June 2011
Guess what everyone, the Crosscutters season starts Friday night, and the GCL season starts June 20th. More box scores! For now, Thursday’s action.
So I have this other website
You know me, I’m not big on spamming here. So I’m only going to mention this once. I’m also going to turn off comments here, because I’m not looking for feedback here, I’m simply spreading the word once, like a small seed in the ground. I’ve been meaning to create a place where I could write about things other than Phillies prospects. And I finally did it. This will include lots of things, including general Phillies/sports thoughts, as well as music, books, movies, and life’s deep questions. If you follow my twitter feed, you already read this stuff. Now I have a chance to write more long form essays. So, if you want to check it out, the link is here. If you don’t, that’s totally understandable. Thank you.
Justin De Fratus promoted to Lehigh Valley
Per the man himself. And now its a race between Justin and Schwim to see who reaches the majors first.
Congrats Justin.

New site feature: Q/A
Hey, new feature. Instead of doing random mailbag posts, I created a new page at the top of the site called “Q/A”….post your prospect related questions, and when I have some time, I will do my best to answer them. It will be like a running question/answer log. Let’s try it.
And just because I know someone will post a question in this thread, I’m going to turn off the comments.
