We might have two prospects that we thought were gone in Perez and Plummer. Easy to forget they’re the same age as A guy like Burleson. Those two oppo shots by Plummer were cranked. Impressive power there
Perez, Plummer, Torres, and Donovan all could be added to 40 man. Torres would probably need to reach AA though.
Yes 27 – we might have a strong position player pipeline if they keep it up. Nunez not crushing it but definitely doing the best with his promo out of the three 3B, which is a good sign given he was least certain prospect of the three and all three promos were aggressive. I like them all but tough adjustments for age
It was bombs away for Nick Plummer whose three-home run night led Springfield to one of the #stlcards system’s two victories on Thursday. Peoria fell despite Michael YaSenka’s impressive mound effort. (free) https://t.co/0p0qKmLYbB pic.twitter.com/kuyAsm7hqF

FCL Cardinals offThe pandemic year in 2020 with no minor leagues and maybe the MiLB rework probably contributed, but I wonder if its the same in other organizations. I know there are some injury issues also, but surely not just us.
With the elimination of two short-season clubs, organizations have less flexibility re player movement than previously.
Used to be that player on the bottom end of the full-season demotion ‘dominoes’ could be re-assigned another lower-level club. Those options still exist but are are now severely curtailed.
Yes, it’s a situation of the organization’s own making but it’s a different minor league baseball world out there.
Futures Game lineups:
NL
1 Alek Thomas, LF, ARI
2 José Barrero, SS, CIN
3 Nolan Gorman, 3B, STL
4 Luis Campusano, C, SD
5 Michael Harris, CF, ATL
6 Brennen Davis, RF, CHC
7 Ryan Vilade, DH, COL
