Great post, thanks!

The ability to hit really does seem like the difference maker. I know many have said that AA ball can a real eye opener in terms of who can hit and who cannot, but it also seems as though there is a big jump from Rookie Ball to A Ball....

I've been following some big name Wisconsin area players, Jeren Kendall, Gavin Lux, Ben Rortvedt and all three struggled to hit .220 in A Ball. All 3 were taken in the first two rounds of the draft. Their careers are hardly over, but man oh man it seems that it is tough to hit pro pitching
