    Anderson had a .325 OBP @ Round Rock down from his .349 OBP @ Corpus (where he had a great year). He struggled at Round Rock, so he may still be one year away.

    How might he be one year away? This kid seems like he could a # 2 batter for our team. He can play center field and move hunter pence to right field. He's 25 which would be a good age to bring him up considering that we have been way too conservative with our prospects in the past. If Cody Ransom can hit for power and field pretty well then it wont matter that he is the shortstop equivalent of jason lane (when it comes to batting average) because you dont necesarily expect your shortstop to have a high batting average. He's nearing 30 and we should give him a shot next year. He had a pretty sweet catch against the brewers. JR Towles looks like he needs another year of seasoning though but he can be a pretty good catcher in the near future.
