Hey now, Montero's numbers have been down because he's not motivated enough by the weak competition;)

Can't wait for what the excuse will be when he still struggles to hit major league pitching this September.

That means he was ranked a better power prospect than that much more hyped catcher at the same level.

 

Well Montero is two years younger and power is the last to come around... Not making an excuse but would you seriously rather have Larvaway in your system than Montero?

Brentz goes 1/2 with a BB in game 1 of a DH, 1/3 with a HR in the next.

 

Salem line up to .271/.329/.576, with 18 HR in 228 AB.

 

Season up to .308/.365/.607, with 29 HR in 399 AB. Very interested to see what he can do in Portland next year.

At the moment it's pretty hard to say no. Lavarnway is the better player on both sides of the ball right now. I've seen a lot of toolsy catchers who never make it, and as Lavarnway is right now he's probably a big league catcher, albeit a flawed one who still needs to do a lot of hard work on D.
