No Miggy? Boo.

Miggy?

I'm pretty sure he means

Miguel Velazquez…since he was most commonly referred to as “Miggy” all year.

Since this is an Arizona League list…he obviously won’t be here.

Teo is a catcher, very young

outfielder

you must be thinking of Telis.

When you're drowning, you don't say 'I would be incredibly pleased if someone would have the foresight to notice me drowning and come and help me,' you just scream.

Teodoro

is someone you should be paying attention to. I think he’s more likely to make the big leagues than Miggy is.

Yep.

Leadoff skills, and still growing — which is worth watching since his dad Carlos played (CLE, CWS) at something like 6’5".

Even if he didn't grow or develop power

it seems like he might end up a good gapper with speed. Could be a fun guy to watch play.

also some love for Profar in the latest Ask BA

He’s listed as the 4th best prospect (with pro experience) who has not yet played full-season ball. Link

thanks.

The home run comment seems odd given Profar’s age.

Profar linked video of his last couple of games on FB

One game he hit a bomb to left center and the next game he doubled off the wall in LF, both batting lefty.

Yeah, seems like he has plenty of latent power potential

for his age and his position.
