Next Prospect to Come Up?

Braun is hurt right now, something seems a little fishy over in Nashville.

I'm pumped to see Gallardo

me as well

Carlos Gomez was called up by the Mets today. I've heard him called Reyes lite. I'm not sure how serious the Alou injury is.

I don't think he will be up for long, but he is very fast.

Yeah, 17 for 21 in steals in 36 games His other numbers aren't that overwhelming - .286 BA, 2 HR, .777 OPS, but as a 21 yr old in AAA, that's pretty dang good. I think he'll fly under the radar in most leagues.

BTW, there is no such thing as Reyes lite, as light cannot catch him.

Gomez as 6"4 and 200 lbs. and is faster than Jose Reyes. That is some speed for that size.

Anyone know when Milledge will be back?

What do you guys think about Evan Longoria from Tampa? Iwamura is coming back soon supposedly, which makes me think that Longoria is going to have to wait it out longer in the minors but I've been waiting on this kid. Anyone else hyped to see him?

Who would you compare Gallardo to who is now in the majors? What numbers do you see from him for an entire season?

That really depends on what season you're talking about. Are you asking about what kind of numbers he'll put up when he gets called up this year, next year, in a few years, or at his peak, etc?

Moved my question to the thread in Minor League Forum.

Yeah. he is the one I want to see the most. I think he will win the ROY in 2008.

Gollardo's ETA is late-june. Seem accurate?
