Well, you stated it as fact to rebut my statement that he should be getting as many at-bats as possible. I didn't mean to be a douche, I was just correcting you.

1 week of extra ABs at AA is not going to be half as valuable at that point as seeing where he is against ML competition.

Aaron Hill was only in Minors for one full season. So it's possible JM could be up at the end of next season.

Aaron Hill and his time in the minors has absolutely nothing to do with Jared Mitchell and his time there. I still think it'll be 2011 before in the bigs.
People have referenced Beckham and other players in this thread, but none of those guys have the flaws Mitchell has.
However, once he begins to correct his flaws, he will be a regular MLB player.
One last thing...did anyone realize Carl Crawford was that big? I had no clue he was 6'2"

speaking of this subject, Gordon Beckham--- the SS from UGA 2 years ago--- already starts at 3B for the White Sox.

Mitchell probably won't be on the 40 man roster next year, so it is unlikely that he gets called up before 2011.

Look at all the great LSU players who never cracked the bigs. It will take him a while.
Hes fast as shite, hes black as shite, and he doesnt field like shite. And his bat is coming along imo.

He also gets picked off on the base paths, strikes out way to much, and has trouble hitting off speed pitches from left handers.
It will take him some time to get these things corrected.

quote:Like I said scottie...he has abilities. He can fix all that stuff in the minors and be ready to go in 2011. And I never said he would be ready by 2010. That would be crazy. 1 year in the minors is not enough.

I agree he should be called up to the majors about 2011

Might yield a strategic advantage if he wasn't going to be wearing white and gray uniforms.
