Catching up with short-season bats
Joshua Lowe shook off a rough start and earned a promotion - Kim Klement-USA TODAY SportsThere are some promising hitters in the lowest levels of the minors
I originally wanted this post to cover pitchers too, but when I was picking out hitters, I ended up with too many. I think it's best to separate them.
I didn't include every player hitting well, and you'll see that not all of these are hitting well. I wanted to cover a mix of more well-known players and players performing well, so someone like Oscar Rojas, who has pretty much hit consistently throughout his career, wasn't included in this post.
Stats are through Aug. 2's games, so it doesn't cover the first player's Hudson Valley debut.
