Though much of the pre-season attention has focussed on San Jose (due to the Bart-Ramos super duo) Augusta may end up with the more interesting roster just due to the depth of the pitching staff. Four of the system’s top seven pitching prospects start the year in Augusta (by Baseball America’s top 30) and the rotation is likely to feature an honest-to-God major league prospect every single night of the week. This accumulation of pitching talent hasn’t appeared anywhere in the system in a good long while.
