Yep, Hensley is gonna be a monster #4 in that rotation.  Think about that for a second. *grins* 
One of the best rotations I remember for the Ms minor league teams was the 2003 San An Missions fronted by Blackley, Nageotte and Mads - before all 3 guys blew their arms out.  *knocks on every piece of wood in sight*
This rotation of Pineda, Robles, Cortes, Hensley and whomever, with Paredes and Fields and Varvaro, etc backing em up, looks like it could be even more fun than that championship team.
That team had a bunch of AAAA bats that were old-for-level fronting the offense, as well as a bit of Snelling and a young Jose Lopez.  The fun part about the offensive performances we'll be looking for from Ackley, Halman, Poythress, Peguero etc is that they're all several years younger.
It just looks like a monster team on paper.  I hope they play like it.  Now would be a REALLY good time for our minor leaguers to up their trade value...and for the keepers to prove they belong on the big club sooner than later.
