Not too long ago, the Cubs assigned Albert Almora Jr. to their alternate training site in South Bend. Along with Jose Martinez and Miguel Amaya, Almora comprises much of the offensive contingent of available call-ups. The Cardinals recently designated for assigment southpaw reliever Rob Kaminsky. Looking at the present and future value of Kaminsky and Almora at the same time is a bit of what I'm currently referring to as “deeper dive baseball.”
For roughly a decade, I've committed energy to the minutiae of affiliated baseball.
