'Dores on the Farm: Dansby Swanson, Carson Fulmer Make Noise in AA Ball

Vanderbilt's latest crop of baseball alums are quickly progressing through the minors.

Dansby Swanson and Carson Fulmer haven't even been professional baseball players for a full year, but they're already leaps and bounds from rookie ball.

The Commodore alums have each made a splash in AA ball and shown off the kind of prodigious talent that could make them MLB-bound in 2016. Swanson is slugging a robust .541 through two weeks with the Mississippi Braves, while Fulmer has shaken off the rust of an early-season slump to become a steady starter for Michael Jordan's former team, the Birmingham Barons.
