Casey Gillaspie hit his fifth home run Wednesday
Jake Bauers is getting more and more attention for his nice results in the Southern League at such a young age, but don't overlook Casey Gillaspie. He's absolutely hammering the ball right now. His 14 extra-base hits are among the league leaders, and he's walking more than he's striking out. It was pretty easy, and maybe even fair, to respond to his results at Bowling Green by saying a collegiate first-rounder should have the success he did. I don't think it's so easy to do that today.
