Akron's going to be must-see this year

I have a trip to the beach scheduled the first time they are in Richmond this year. May drop out.

What are the chances Meija and Bradley aren't on the Rubberducks in August (next time Akron is in Richmond)

I'd go on a limb and say, yeah, they probably will be.

But nothing surprises me anymore.

Very unlikely they play above AA this season to be sincere. The way they have been trying to develop guys is a full season at each of the levels if possible and since we don't need to rush either guy, they will try to keep them at AA this season and if they do really well there, then AAA next season (if not so hot they will keep them at AA for another season)

Absolutely possible, despite the sincere feelings of others.

Pretty sure they'll both end the season at AA. There's a small chance Mejia moves to AAA, but there's almost no way Bradley moves up.

I worded mine different.

Do I expect them to move up? No. Would it surprise me? No.

 

[The Wizard of Moz]

Thanks for the responses. Really hopeful I get to see them both. Last year watching Zimmer and Frazier from right behind the Ducks dugout was really cool. Actually there was a good bit of Tribe fans there watching

I'd say the odds of Mejia being up in Columbus are 50/50, while Bradley most likely stays in Akron all season.

Chang hit his 3rd HR on the season already today.

Chang hit his 3rd HR already today.

Part of me says he will get traded, he just has no place on this team going forward, where do you think he fits long term?

 

[Ob1]

Can he play 2nd? I feel like there could be an opening there in a couple seasons if they keep Jram at 3rd. Or can he play 3rd?

Bobby Bradley with AA HR #1...hopefully the first of 30+
