Wow. All the top B-ham prospects got at least 1 hit tonight...Shelby, Beckham, Allen, Flowers, and Vicideo. That's a team.

We'll see. I think there's a better chance that Beckham will stay in the minors longer than that, and he'll end up playing 2B.

I have to admit, Ramirez looks as smooth as silk at SS. It's going to be real hard moving him out of there. I mean, if he's a gold glove caliber SS, you pretty much can't.

I liked reading that game time temperature of 72 degrees. This will be my first season following the Barons on here. Usually when the big club brings up a guy, I really don't have a sense of what kind of player they are. Usually when I player gets traded, I had no idea of who they were. This was a good start for the Barons. There sure are alot of strikeouts in the minors!

Where are you guys going to be following the Barons this year? As in, what's the best site to use?

Yes, Hawk has mentioned CJ Retherford more than once I believe. Not entirely sure why he is high on him.
