Very impressive homer by Eldridge today at Surprise. John Miller said it cleared the berm in CF, quite a shot!

If he gets to the majors and is legit he will hit a ton of splash hit homers

One can only hope.

2.22 Recap:

JH Lee -- lined the first pitch he saw 105 mph for a single, caught an over the shoulder line drive at the wall (bro has ZERO fear)
Luciano -- played a carom off the wall perfectly
Huff -- 2 run bomb off the team that just DFA'd him, successful challenge on a called ball
McCray -- bomb
Roupp -- 2 sharp innings
Bryce -- well, you know...110mph, 450 feet. On an 0-2 pitch where he "shortened up"
Peguero -- hit 102 on the gun; 1 IP, 2K
Teng -- clean inning, down 15 pounds of fat, velocity is up

Bad news: Murph is out a few weeks with an oblique strain. My guess is he doesn't make the squad. Early favorite is Huff, with Stassi a possibility.

At this point, the pitching rotation looks like:
Webb
JV -- this puts him on track for the home opener 4.4
Ray
Hicks
Harry

Reminder that ZiPS ranks Eldridge—who doesn't turn 21 until October—as MLB's sixth-best prospect. Two of his closest age-based comps (per ZiPS): Boog Powell and Big Papi
