I remember Duncan now that I think about it. Wong should bump both of them to get him some AA ab's down the stretch. Duncan can find another position or they can promote him to Memphis for awhile. Who cares about Garcia.InvincibleCakeEater wrote:Jose Garcia and Eric Duncan get the bulk of the PT.

I'm all for it personally. I don't think 1 month of AB's at AA is going to stunt his development if he's overmatched. If he holds his own and looks legit that could conceivably shave a half to full season off his ETA by not having him piddle around in A+ for however long next year. No downside to it IMO.phins wrote:You want him to skip high-A and go straight to AA? I doubt we do that. We started him at a full-season club as it is.
There's no way he starts next year at AAA, even if he spends the last month of the season at AA and plays in the AFL.JoeMcKim wrote:If getting Wong ready to start next year at AAA with a September callup then I say have him skip A+.
Because he was a low ceiling/mlb close pick and we have no other options at 2B sans theriot and skip.phins wrote:Why are we pushing him again?
They did that to Wallace, I think.phins wrote:You want him to skip high-A and go straight to AA? I doubt we do that. We started him at a full-season club as it is.
