Ryan Carpenter and Jake Floethe- too good to come back to Hudson Valley. Where's pitcher Andrew Bellatti? Also, can't see Nick Schwaner beatig out Ty Morrison for OF.

In doing these projections, I'm finding there are so many pitchers in every organization who pitched good enough to move to the next level. But in many of those cases, there isn't room to move up until some of the guys ahead of them are released. I'm guessing that will happen in the coming weeks and I can start moving guys up the depth chart.

Bellati was an oversight on my part. Not sure how I missed him. To give you an example of what I stated in the previous paragraph, I now have 7 worthy starting pitchers in Lo-A, but they'll likely go with a 6-man rotation. Things will clear up in a few weeks.

I probably flipped a coin with Morrison and Schwaner. Neither was very good last year. I needed a LF with Mahtook expected to play CF. Could be either one of those guys.
