Ok....random post....who is your personal "cheeseball" Phillies prospect....the slightly under the radar guy you are pretty sure you are more interested in than others

Rudolfo Duran. His strength is starting to catch up to his athleticism. Top 10 prospect by the end of the year- book it!

No....I had already mentally assigned you Carlos De La Cruz. He's all yours

Gonna have to fight me for De la Cruz. Could be a beast.

They did put them in separate divisions so they don't play each other that much. Though geographically I think they divide the league schedule into 2 zones with the Central FL divisions playing each other and the South FL ones also. Downside of not playing at all would be playing all your games within a 4 or 5 team division.

We all probably need to remember that they don't really play these games for us. GCL is developmental and really only a step up from informal instructional or extended Spring games. The Phillies probably don't care who wins these games even if we do.

The GCL always kind of strikes me as a glorified extended spring training.

Bohm has hit a few hard ground balls to third so far. The first baseman can’t see throws from third because of the setting sun- never seen that before.

fish--do you go back to the Montreal Expo's days in Jarry Park? They used to stop the games for 15 minutes every night for a couple of months because the 1B absolutely could not see throws from the left side of the infield for that time. Could have been very dangerous for the 1B.
