I very nearly trashed the issue when I got it a couple of weeks ago.  There are two players in the M's system that are flying below the radar, and they didn't list them?  Un-freakin' believable!
I'm talking about Nate Tenbrink and Vinnie Catricala.  The four or five people who actually read what I write knows about them because I've been trumpeting them for two freakin' years now!
Take a look at Tenbrink's numbers over at BB-Ref or where ever. Take a look at the "Hitting Evolution" piece I did on him, and you will see a young man on the rise.  I've recently been told that Jack Z has been to every one of Tenbrinks batting cage outtings so far.
Vinnie "The Cat" Catricala is coming off of a season where he ripped up the Midwest League, but like everyone on that team he was over-shadowed by Franklin.  Check out his numbers also at BB-Ref, or even take a look at the "Hitting Evolution" piece I did on him.  Prepare to be impressed.  In many ways Catricala's season with Clinton was better than Franklin's.
Both of these guys should have been in this years issue, and leaving them out is very, VERY short-sighted.
