What’s The Point: Prospect Up
3
What is up party people? This has already been an incredibly exciting week for baseball and we're not even to the weekend yet. Two of the top prospects in baseball have been called up! Jordan Walker reclaims his rightful place in the big leagues while Elly De La Cruz gets his first taste of the show. Ok ok, technically Walker got the call last week but it was after my article got posted and I'll take any excuse to talk about him. Since his triumphant return he has blasted a bomb but more encouragingly, he has started every game. Big things are in store. As for Elly, the sky really is the limit and he wasted no time showing off what he can do, ripping a double at 112 MPH for his first hit. He has the look of a superstar and I don't want to throw cold water on him but his strikeout numbers could out a damper on things. Of course he can improve and obviously I want him on my team, but it is something to remember. In all likelihood, it is way too late to add either of them by the time you read this. That being said...
