    ...So we have more upside in Quad Cities than in Houston.

    Is this the first time #1 overall picks are on the same minor team? Don't know if Strasburg and Harper ever teamed up.

    Steve Chilcott and Tim Foli both played for the Visalia Mets in 1969. I don't know if they ever played together. Chilcott only played 7 games due to injury.

    Dave Roberts and Bill Almon definitely played together in 1975 and 1976. Dave Roberts and Mike Ivie played together in 1973. Mike Ivie & Bill Almon played together in 1974.

    Padres almost had 3 #1s on one minor league team.

    The Greeneville pitching staff currently has 10 pitchers with a K/9 rate greater than 9.

    #25 this year, passing last year's total.

    Not counting his pair of all-star bombs, of course.
