As is often the case, I disagree with most of their list, which focuses too much on reliever and 4th OF types.go birds wrote:hes not listed in the VEB current list...hes one of the perennial "prospects that are 2-3 years away" from breaking out

I’ve been wanting to see a MiLB game. Maybe I’ll drive up to Peoria on Friday.

Re: Elehuris Montero SUPER THREAD
That's not nearly good enough. Our current first baseman hit 3 HR's and 4 in the span of 24 hours. He'll never make it if he doesn't improve.PA_Hiker wrote:Two homers for Elehuris last night.

Elehuris Montero, 3b, STL

Thoughts on Elehuris. Does his scouting reports back up the stat line he has put up so far in A-ball?

Elehuris Montero, 19y/o 3B slashing .320/.380/.530 in A ball. More 50/55 hit with 55 power which is good at 3B, but Montero has considerable 1B risk. He's a pretty big kid.

Re: Elehuris Montero SUPER THREAD
1B risk... that just struck me as funny. I get what he's saying, but if you think about it, the Cards haven't had a legit first baseman since Pujols. We've had players who settled at 1b because we needed someone there or because they couldn't cut it elsewhere -- Carpenter or Craig. They hoped Adams would fill that role, but he didn't really work out.Jocephus wrote:Elehuris Montero, 3b, STL

Even though 1b is a great place to throw guys who can't defend and can hit, it would be nice to lock that position down with a elite hitter who can field the position for a decade or so. If Montero does that, I'm not going to be too disappointed that he was a "1b risk".
