Farhan Zaidi does not like to slow play his development pipeline. If the cream rises to the top, he’ll scoop it out and dollop it on a major league roster without a second thought.
Although they’re not quite ready for major league action, this morning, the Giants promoted catcher Joey Bart (#1 prospect), OF Heliot Ramos (#2), and Sean Hjelle (#6) to Double-A Richmond, a move that we should all look at as a sign the team wants these guys to reach the big leagues as soon as possible.
If all goes well, “soon” could be next season.
