Nice read-up, Alex. I'm really impressed by what Heredia has done so far, both in the FSL and so far at WV. He's the one kid no one's really talking about, but he has every bit as much talent as Cole and Taillon. I suspect by the time he's 20, he'll be making his ML debut.
Heredia went 5 innings tonight, allowing just 1 earned. Struck out two.
I like Heredia too, he's a big 18 year old at 6'6, 205 pounds. It'll be interesting to watch him develop over the next few years
To tell you the truth, as much as I like him, if he can be dealt as part of a package for an upgrade in RF or late-inning bullpen arm, they should do it. The emergence of Nick Kingham IMO has made him expendable.
