Victor Mesa, Jr. getting hot at the right time for the Miami Marlins

Victor Mesa, Jr. has been on a tear the second half of the season in the GCL. Mesa, who is only 17, is being moved along slowly in the Marlins minor league system.

The one thing the Miami Marlins front office wants to see is their top minor league prospects finishing their seasons strong. As Derek Jeter, Michael Hill and Gary Dembo watch Victor Mesa, Jr, J.J. Bleday and others save their best for last, it’s heartwarming to know just a year ago this time the franchise was under intense scrutiny from Major League Baseball fans for having dissected a popular lineup and traded away top stars in the process.
