I'm not seeing Taylor = Brad Miller. Taylor power has evaporated in a normal ballpark. Miller is a much stronger hitter. Taylor OBP currently higher than his SLG. Can't shake the image of a Willie Bloomquist bat.
I look through the MiLB box scores each evening, but this season I have not clicked on the Cal League scores once. If someone rakes there, it means nothing in my world. If they can't hit there, yikes! It is good to see Taylor can still hit a bit at AA unlike many of our other High Desert mirages. Taylor strikes out at a pretty darn high rate for a guy with no power, thankfully those BB and SB make up for it. Will be interesting to see where he ends up in a couple years.
Nice call on Romero, I liked him quite a bit after last year but now the shine has dulled. Never cared for Kivlehan, waaaaay too many K's at Everett. Then cut the K's but couldn't hit for power in Clinton. We'll have to find out if he can keep the K's down and hit for some power in AFL and AA next season. If yes then could be a nice piece but not counting on it.
Overall this AFL group is a bit on the dull side. We've been spoiled following so many great prospects the past couple years!
