OF Victor Scott II and RHP Andre Pallante have been optioned to AAA
C Pedro Pages and RHP Nick Robertson have been recalled as the corresponding moves


Why are they sending Scott down? Pallante has always sucked.
Who are the two that they are bringing up?

Because Scott should've never EVER been up.

The question isn't why they're sending him down - it's why they had him on a big league roster to begin with. Sending him up here to die is not developing a young player. It's throwing shit at the wall.

He had to go down. He wasn't going to improve getting obliterated. And frankly, he probably shoudl've been sent to AA. He didn't look like a guy who can excel even in Memphis. The bat just has way too far to go still.

Scott would have put up a historically bad season if he stayed up here. He was on pace to be -8 win player. Calling him up was totally irresponsible.

This team has ZERO clue on how to identify OF talent. Let 3 guys walk and end up with the worst OF in MLB

You misspelled how to identify any and all talent and effectively use what talent they have.

Hell at this point I'm not even blaming the players, everyone seems to play below their expected norms under this organization now. It's cultural rot that's the issue.

Cardinals' pick in Baseball America's just released mock draft.

7. Cardinals — Nick Kurtz, 1B, Wake Forest

Kurtz was hitting under .300 for the first 25 games of the season. But if you look at his overall production he’s still managed to be one of the very best hitters in the country thanks to exceptional plate awareness and power that has surfaced in a huge way in April.

His 26.1% walk rate is second among D-I hitters and his 14.4% chase rate is the best of any college hitter you’ll see in this mock draft. His 17 homers are tied for ninth in the country which is perhaps not ideal for a top-of-the-draft first baseman but much more impressive when you consider he had just two homers through his first 20 games.

Being a first base-only profile could hold Kurtz back among the top tier players, as could his more lengthy injury history. But his offensive track record and toolset seems as safe as any in this draft class.

Not sure it really matters who they draft.

They can't develop talent. They'd manage to **** up Ken Griffey Jr.

It's depressing to know that no matter who they draft that player's career will be wasted.

But at the same time, it's refreshing to know it from the start and just not care.

I used to worry a bit about the development of a guy like Chase Davis. How he's picking up ball/strikes against more polished opponents. How he's transitioning to wood bats. Is there some static in the low minors that suggest the approach is good even when the results aren't?

Now? Pft - who gives a ****? The guy could develop perfectly. He could have a 1.100 OPS this year in AA. Who cares? We'll call him up, ruin him, trade him for dick and then watch some other team unlock him (This is going to happen to Jordan Walker).

So knowing all that, I don't worry even a little how a guy is doing in the minors. Because even if he's great, it won't benefit this ballclub in any way.

So why do guys have such success in Memphis then stink when they get to the big club?

I get the pitching is a different animal but other teams rookies seem to be able to adjust well enough. Winn seems to have done decent.

Do they **** with their hitting approach when they come up?
