Maybe...
just maybe, they should stop hitting him in the 9 hole now.
I saw yesterday he was hitting 2nd with Vallejo out.

Lemon is eventually going to beat The Newberg into submission!
Keith Law: (1:45 PM ET ) I think Michael Young should shut his mouth and move to third base.
Lemon might be our version
of Polanco. He’s a tough out, doesn’t dazzle you in any way, therefore the underrated value, but he continues to be successful.
The "Fire Wash Watch" is on. I say he's gone by April 26th.
It’s very early and anything could happen, but what I like is that, despite being very young for each level, his numbers have improved each year in full season ball. I also find it a little stupid that the BA hot sheet on Friday mentioned 21 names (including guys fringier than Lemon on any scale) and didn’t mention him. He’s had six hits the last two nights, but he was still hitting .550 at the time.

Agree
Flameouts are always possible with any prospect, but hard to ignore a guy young for each level whose productivity only increases as he goes.
Keith Law: (1:45 PM ET ) I think Michael Young should shut his mouth and move to third base.
Corey Young would be hitting 1.000/1.000/4.000.
The 40 Trumps All!!!
I love you, Marcus Lemon.

Asked this in a minor league thread the other day… Would you actually trade Golson for Lemon?

Is this some sort of pop culture reference
my unhip ass is not getting, the he’s so hot right now…Lemon, thing?

Ok
didn’t see that one, and after watching a couple clips, guess I didn’t miss much.

The first time I saw it
way back when, I thought it was stupid. And the Stiller/Zoolander stuff is hit and miss. But if you like to watch Owen Wilson and Will Ferrell be goofy, it’s funny. Also, I’m a Vince Vaughn guy, but when will you ever see him in a movie for like five minutes without saying a word?

There's some great stuff there
David Bowie calling the walk-off?
The orange mocha frappachino run and gasonline fight?
A school for ants?
It’s fun.

exactly.
I love that he was in it, and didn’t say shit.
I hated this movie the first time I saw it. I liked it a lot better the next few times

I was at that game
yesterday, and I got his autograph
When/if he makes the majors...
What position will he be playing?
Who would be a good comparison to him?

this is what i do...i guarantee.
The angst associated with Marcus Lemon amuses me
I think when I see someone / something that half the people are yelling “overrated!” and the other half are yelling “underrated!” the consensus view is probably about right…
I'd take the under.

considering I've never seen the kid play
and have only heard of intense love or underwhelming comments…I’d say I’m excited to see him rise through the higher levels…but not committed yet.
