Did anyone watch the Futures games today fro Arizona?

Grant Green was named MVP of the game and the annoucers were RAVING about him. He ended up going 2 for 2 with 2 doubles. The second one JUST missed going out to dead center.

I hope we see him by September. He played 2nd today due to the USA team having so many SS's.

I watched and was quite impressed by Green's 2 ABs. The kid looks like a player.

Given that Pennington can't hit, hopefully Green will be ready for the big show come 2013

Well,

I say bring him up, and while they're at it, bring up Taylor, Miller, and hell, even Recker at this point.

There is a reason they call us the Triple A's for god's sake!

Amen, brothers! The minor leaguers can't be any worse than the current alleged big leaguers.

It was just announed that they are going to move Green to centerfield.

I guess they feel he won't replace Weeks OR Pennington any time soon.

So, get used to a shortstop with NO pop and a low batting average for the next few years.
