MiLB Daily Performances Thread - 6/3

He's not a sexy prospect, and not young, but Even Anundsen's been solid all year. Tonight: 7 IP 0 R 2 H 2 BB 4 K.

Now has a 2.32 ERA in 54 IP. He's been on a tight leash (I assume b/c of injury history), but nice to see the progress.

Im loving me some Olt, I just bought the rainbow this weekend, Super auto, red auto, orange and gold auto.

I have always liked his glove. His bat is really suprising me. Hobby wise the only thing that scares me about him is where he ends up. I doubt he ever plays 3B for the Rangers. He could end up in a hobby waste land.

I see him as at least an everyday starter. He's a pure hitter (in his 4 seasons he has hit .361, .280, .294, and .333) who I think could have enough overall bat to stick at third as a starter as long as the glove holds up. I see him as a .275/18/90 kind of guy who hits a lot of doubles. The way his power has progressed over the last year and a half, I want to say he may even have what it takes to hit 20-25 homers at least a couple years of his career. He has a pretty aggressive approach, which always makes Ks a concern, but if he's hitting like he is right now then it doesn't really matter. I'm mostly just curious to see if he can keep up what he's been doing lately, because I'm pretty sure he's batting well-over .400 in his last 20 games.

Davidson is pretty much exclusively playing at 1B these days so while he's definitely got to be in the plans for AZ, I don't really think he's the long-term solution for 3B.

If he lives up to your .275/18/90 projection that fits a second-division starter. Lots of red flags to overcome to reach his ceiling, however. Most importantly, can't hit lefties.
