now before everybody comes screaming at me saying that its to early I just want to say my peace.
I think ackley and smoak could have been a lot better players if they would have had more playing time in the minor leagues we brought these guys up way to fast and i feel that mike is going to be on the same pace for the same result. Mike was drafted in 2012 that same year we was playing well in AA batting .333. the next season he got promoted to AAA hit .227 in 200ABs and got promoted to the majors. I understand that at the time the catching position was a mess with montero and others but we called him up way to fast he should still be in the minors TO THIS DAY. in his 371ABs he is batting .216
ackley spent a little more time in the minors but his .270 ABs in AAA and then he gets called up. I think these guys should have a solid year minimum in AAA and a good Spring training the following season to be called up to play in the majors.
and just a side note zunino is the only player in the top 10 2012 draft class playing in the majors.
