Any idea what’s going on in the Trash Pandas game?  The app has it in an injury delay the last 10 minutes.

He's playing for my local team hopefully he can be good as the other Angels catcher to play in Australia

Why is an Angel draftee playing in Australia and not an Angels minor league team?

He's not playing there now.  He'll play in the off-season.  It's the equivalent of a prospect playing in the Dominican Winter League, etc.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Baseball_League

"Because the ABL's season takes place from November to February, the ABL is one of baseball's recognised winter leagues (although it is summer in Australia when the season takes place), where minor-league prospects in North America are often assigned as an English-speaking alternative to the primary Spanish-speaking Latin America-based winter leagues.

Thanks, that clears that up.

Btw wasn't Rios drafted to play 3B? That was his position at Stanford IIRC.

He actually never played 3B at Stanford.  Played mostly OF and a little C.  When he was drafted, I think they announced him as a 3B, but he only played OF in the minors last year.  This past off-season, they said they wanted him to focus on catching.

The positional stuff won't matter if he can't hit, though.  Admittedly it's a small sample size, but he's been downright awful at the plate so far.

I can't be the only person that saw them ranking prospects by "tiers" who then started laughing.  I'm all tiered out.

I'm in tiers right now lmao

Moore has singled and homered in his first 2 ABs tonight.

[jsnpritchett]

 

[Make Angels Great Again]

Just absurd. He can’t possibly keep this pace, but he’s got to be a top 25 prospect. I think he’s our obvious #1.

[Make Angels Great Again]

To have a 1.600 OPS over a 30AB stretch is legitimately insane, for anyone at any level

Wow! Moore is raking big time. Does anybody know what he did in last night's game? Did he play or what?

1 for 3 with a walk. 1 K. His hit was a single.

Lol.  Moore just hit ANOTHER HR.

[jsnpritchett]

Only a single in his 4th AB.  Boot him back to Inland Empire!
