LET'S GO KJERSTAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where does he start next year? Delmarva?

I think Delmarva to get his feet wet.  Depends on how he does, I could see a rapid promotion if he mashes.

I'd personally like to see him play winter ball somewhere.  Not sure if that's possible.

I would guess Delmarva. It’ll be 2 years since he played. I could see him taking the Westburg route if his play dictates it. 

I assume they wouldn't send him to the AFL....

I don't think he's ready for games if he has just started taking bp.

I already can't wait until the start of minor league baseball next year.  We'll have 2 first round picks debuting.  Kjerstad and then our #1 draft pick, perhaps #1 overall, later in the summer.  Then there are guys like Willems and Craig who we didn't get to see this year.  Add some Latin talent to the mix and there's a lot to look forward to.

Yeah I agree. Wishful thinking.

milb.tv is a great deal.

It's also especially valuable when the MLB product is a dumpster fire.

Have I not been posting enough recently for you so you had to dig up an old post to get your fix in?

I just don't get it, I'm not that interesting.

I didn't say you were interesting.   Seemed like it might make a few people chuckle.  Just trying to add a little cheer to the world.   You didn't need to comment.   It is what it is.  I started reading from page one and that was funny.

Oh yea, the super spicy take that a fourth round pick who was a high school player might not pan out.

What an interesting take, worthy of bringing back up months later.

I'm ever so sure that if it hadn't been me that had said it you still would have mentioned it...right?

You and I often disagree but I've gotta agree with you here. 

Just joking.

I'm not offended if you aren't joking. 

I'm not interesting, I'm just a dude at a computer that is pessimistic about the team's future.

He looks a bit skinny, but he's got all winter to work on that.   Trey can show him the ropes!   Glad he is healthy enough to take this step.

I'm not sure what he looked like before, but that swing looks pretty damn powerful to me.

Wrong.  It would be funny no matter who said it.  There's just very few people who would have said something like that regarding a draft pick with such little to go on.  Not bust potential.  Serious bust potential.  Interesting.

Just happy to see the young man doing baseball things on a baseball field. Would love to see him get into some Fall instruct games and then start next year in Delmarva where hopefully he will be fully recovered, thrive, and move quickly.

I'm really pulling for the young man after all that he has been through!

Since he got it a long time before vaccines were available, I think we can cross that off the list. 

Once again everyone discounts the option of time travel.
