I know there is a clear drop off after Delgado, was just wondering who is next.

This is the Braves pitching situation as it stands:
1. Tommy Hanson, 24
2. Jair Jurrjens, 25
3. Tim Hudson, 35
4. Brandon Beachy, 24
5. Derek Lowe, 38
6. Kris Medlen, 25*
7. Mike Minor, 23
8. Julio Teheran, 20
9. Randall Delgado, 21
10. Arodys Vizcaino, 20
11. Sean Gilmartin, 21
*Injured and possible reliever
That's the order they are in right now as far as major league readiness imo. And all of them are under team control next year. There's no way they go into spring training next year without trading a few of them.
Also, Gilmartin obviously is unsigned and unable to be traded in the offseason even if he does sign. I just put him at the bottom of the list to remember he's there.

Hope I'm wrong, but still don't know about this guy panning out.

Honestly, I think we made the incorrect pick. We are desperately lacking bats on the farm. Our embarrassment of riches when it comes to pitching has helped to mask the deficiency.
Posted on 7/12/11 at 12:49 am to volfan30
Of course Viz may end up being a reliever

Also, I think there is a pretty solid chance that at least one of the big 3 will be called up to the big leagues on August 31st so that they will be eligible for the postseason roster out of the bullpen.

He would be dominant, but I really hope that's not the way we go with him if he stays with our organization

Yeah not taking a bat such as Mikie 
was definitely odd this year.

I am not high on Mikie, but feel that he would have been a much better fit for us.
Posted on 7/12/11 at 12:56 am to lsu31always
He may end being an Eric Byrnes clone
Posted on 7/12/11 at 12:57 am to lsu31always
There were a few hiters I wanted there
pick just didnt make much sense to me

Seemed like a poor man's Hunter Pence to me. Jack of all trades, master of none
Posted on 7/12/11 at 12:57 am to SwampDonks
Then Gilmartin gets lit up in CWS. Not what I want to see from experience senior 1st round pick.

Seeing that Pence is pretty much a highly functioning retard what does that mean Mikie is?

How many times have you watched him pitch?
Posted on 7/12/11 at 1:00 am to SwampDonks
Me touting Bryce Harper before anyone else LINK
Going to try and find who I wanted in 09, I know I wanted Wheeler but San Fran took him. I didn't like the Minor pick at the time.

i remember a game against the Mets this year. wasn't that impressed. he was good at Vandy. minor league numbers just don't stand out.

TBH noone really was when he was drafted, at least I wasn't.
but he added velocity and has pretty damn good secondary stuff, so he started striking out 11 guys per 9
if he keeps his walks down, and learns how to pitch a little bit better instead of throwing, he's going to be great..IMO of course
but everyone got so high on him due to his strikeout rates
