They put him on the 40 man, might as well be aggressive with him. Send him to Richmond, it's not like he has control issues. Let's see what he's got. And besides, getting racked in the Cal League could set him back. Might as well set him up for continued success, then SELL HIGH !!Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08483153782366187271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7389427040394111033.post-75890312327197837982014-01-05T09:44:14.648-08:002014-01-05T09:44:14.648-08:00I am not sure if anyone picked him to break out i...I am not sure if anyone picked him to break out in 2013...and that would be great, as it would imply that, (well, I am looking at it half full), we will see more pleasantly surprises in the future....players not on the radar now.BuyLowSellLowernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7389427040394111033.post-53408810425337157082014-01-05T08:21:47.477-08:002014-01-05T08:21:47.477-08:00Flores had the 6th most IP in the entire org (Cain...Flores had the 6th most IP in the entire org (Cain/Bum/Timmy plus Gloor/Westcott). I think he's got to be first in line for Richmond if the Giants do send Escobar to the PCL. <br /><br />Great command control of 4 pitches, uptick in velocity and an avoidance of hits. 216 BAA and 7.18 H/9. I guess he has to prove out every level like most prospects, but I'm pretty excited about the combo of change/curve/cutter to go with a uptick fastball.<br /><br />Like we've discussed, I'd put Flores ahead of Mella until the lad played full season ball, 2nd best fastball in the org taking a back seat to innings on the bump. Great to have both of these guys.Shankbonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04803824507120403397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7389427040394111033.post-77858237446496952792014-01-05T08:17:18.104-08:002014-01-05T08:17:18.104-08:00Correction: The sentence should have read, "....Correction: The sentence should have read, "...actually getting stronger down the stretch CAN BE OVERSTATED."

He'...You and I feel very similarly about Flores. He's actually #12 in my ranking as well, behind Mella and Panik, but importantly ahead of Agosta and Gregorio. I've seen quite a few knocks on Flores this winter, about "so-so" stuff, just as you mentioned. But I don't think the importance of him staying healthy all year, and actually getting stronger down the stretch. Those reports of 95 on the gun, with a potential plus change up (in the words of David Lee), and amazing control... that's nothing to sneeze at. Time will tell all, but Flores is a serious prospect in the organization now, and I think he could have another big year ahead of him. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
