Andre C. Fernandez of The Athletic brought up a great question as to when Marlins fans could expect the team’s first-round draft pick, J.J. Bleday, would make it to the Majors. The Vanderbilt star is still at least two seasons away from making a direct impact in South Florida.
If it does take that long to develop Bleday, who has power and middle-of-the-order ability, when can fans expect to see the organization’s top minor league prospect, pitcher Sixto Sanchez, in a Marlins uniform?
It a topic that should be explored more.
