Hello and welcome back to FanPost Friday! It’s been quite a week in Mariners-ville as the team graduated not one, but two of its farm system’s most highly-ranked prospects in Jarred Kelenic and Logan Gilbert. That was a lot of hype for one Thursday night game in May!
One fun aspect of having a highly-ranked and talent-rich farm system is that we’re going to get to do this whole MLB debut thing quite often if all goes as planned. One of my favorite things about following sports, and especially with baseball, is following a player’s development and ascent to the game’s biggest stage.
