Yeah, not much being said about Deni on a national bases, or, locally. I guess his low draft/prospect status is the reason. I would expect that to change by next seasons rankings. If he continues his offensive production into next season, I would say that would legitimize his prospect status, especially if he is moved up to Springfield. Sure would great to see a 16th round pick blossom for the Cardinals, as that is the type of drafting we have to do to compete with the big boys markets. Our Latin talent pool is already looking better than it has in years, and I only expect that to increase with Bloom.

Remember Pujols was a late round draft choice.

Looks like he runs well for a big kid. Some similarities to Albert. Think he runs better than Albert though.

It's interesting to see he is a bigger build guy, 6-1 230. But he is sitting here with 39 sb (vs 9 cs).

Both juco draftees too.

I wonder how he is with the glove? Sure hope the bat keeps developing!

he's been fun to watch.
He walks a lot, that goes well with his Plus 25% K rate. That's at Low A and High A...I think it'll only get worse without some sort of correction. There's hope there, b/c he does see the ball better than most free swingers do.
