I've seen guys like Gorzelanny (Pitt SP) already in the database. Any hidden gems that are surprisingly already there in yahoo that will be called up soon?
More or less AAA players who are doing good and could be called up in the near future that are already in the database. Yea, very small amount of players that fit this criteria, but there's a few I hope.

Micah Owings, AZ
Micah Owings making such a positive impression in the D'backs front office :
" ... He'll be in the big leagues by next week probably," Tucson outfielder Chris Young said, joking. After throwing six no-hit innings in his Triple-A debut at Portland last week, Owings (2-0) impressed again Wednesday night in a 5-1 win over Las Vegas. He allowed one run in 6 1/2 innings, giving up just two hits after the second inning ... Combined with his outings at Double-A Tennessee, Owings is 8-2 with a 2.59 ERA ... "He's an exceptional competitor," Tucson manager Chip Hale said. "I think his stuff is going to get better and better. The big question we have in our organization is, 'Is he a starter or is he a reliever?' ... "When he hits, it's like having a DH in there," Hale said. Owings led Tulane in batting average (.355), home runs (18) and tied in RBIs (63), while going 12-4 with a 3.26 ERA to earn Conference USA player of the year in 2005." (Tucson Citizen)
Humberto Sanchez, Detroit...SP....
Humberto Sanchez ... 6'6" righty ... made his Triple-A debut on June 8, beating Buffalo by tossing 5.2 innings and allowing just one run. He followed up his impressive debut with two scoreless performances last week, throwing a total of 13.1 innings of shutout baseball ... For the week Sanchez was 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA in 13.1 IP, including 12 K. Humberto spent the first two months of the season with Double-A Erie, where he posted a 5-3 record with a 1.76 ERA and 86 K in 71.2 IP. He's now won his first three Triple-A starts. Humberto Sanchez missed the first half of the 2005 season with a groin injury, and after coming back went 3-5 with a 5.57 ERA in 15 appearances with Erie. The 22-year-old looked better during his six starts with Mesa of the Arizona Fall League in the offseason, going 1-0 with a 2.13 ERA. The native of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, was originally chosen in the 31st round of the 2001 draft by Detroit." (International League)
Well if you read the first post correctly you would have noticed he mentioned Yahoo. Not too hard to figure out from there
I'm a huge Micah Owings fan. Been waiting following him since Class A and can't wait for his first start sometime this season.
I've been hearing Micah Owings name thrown around (although not here) and his numbers seem pretty good in a hitter friendly league. I see practically nothing posted about Owings here in the FBC. Anybody got any info on him? Mini-scouting report, potential upside, etc? He seems to be having a pretty fast rise after being drafted just last year.
btw, I also hear this guy can flat out rake as far as pitchers go. Is this true?
