Tanner Franklin

Uh, you got Rodriguez, Jesus Baez, Josiah Ragsdale, Daniel Ortiz, Jack Gurovich, Wamen Chou.

Plus you got the pitching staff that features Liam Doyle, Tanner Franklin, Daniel Eagan, Brandon Clark [laughs] who was throwing 102 the other day.

Should make them quite a handful in the postseason.

So, um, yeah.

So Liam Doyle, top notch.

How about his teammate at Tennessee? also being a double a and arguably being just as good if not better throughout the entire season tanner franklin at double a not through a ton of starts he wasn't up there the whole time 3.34 era 30.9 k rate he's got a little bit more of a walk issue right now than doyle even does regardless real legitimate crazy stuff especially the fastball Speaking of the fastball, Brandon Clark just earned himself a promotion to that AA team to play there in their postseason run.

August, in the month of August, right before getting promoted, he had a 3.07 ERA.

Seems fine.

I'm just saying.

I'm just tossing it out there with what he's producing.

Tanner Franklin, maybe not so much.

Brandon Clark, probably not.

Senya could be ready to go.

And then you got William Doyle and Tanner Franklin coming right behind them.

So I think there's a lot to be excited about as far as the pitching staff is concerned.

Speaking of young players who had a really good road trip, there's two guys we want to highlight as we move on.

Solid players.

Alec Burleson, Jordan Walker, Raniel Rodriguez, Palante, Doyle, Baez, Herrera, Bernal, Leahy, Franklin, Sanja, Fajardo, Ragsdale, McGreevy, Liberatore, Matthews, Brandon Clark, Ty Pete, Cooper, Jerby, Blaze, Jordan, and Hunter.

You can stop.

This

list is a joke then.

You're telling me the guy

that has hit 100 RBI in Major League Baseball and Alec Burleson is in the same category as a Fajardo and Tanner Franklin? You're telling me that Jordan Walker, who is approaching 30 home runs, has he already had 30 home runs?

No, I think he's too short.

And I still don't think he's necessarily the best prospect in the system pitching-wise.

I'd still take Liam Doyle and Tanner Franklin, but we'll talk about that later.

But it shows you how stinking awesome he is and how great the Carlos Farns system depth is right now, arms-wise.

If this is the guy that's coming out, it's the electric stuff.

He's just so exciting.

And I think truly the best version of the Cardinals has Cooper jerky in that rotation in a couple of years.

I think just the idea of getting into a playoff series where you've got Liam Doyle and Tanner Franklin as these big power arms at the front of your rotation.

And then you throw Cooper jerky in game three.

Yeah,

I've got, you know, my work wives are BK and Tanner and then Curbs and Joey.

That's great, man.

Couldn't beat it.

Maybe they want to have him start and kind of at least start the season down at AAA.

You still would have Sange and Molina down there.

And then by the time you get to September, you would hope that maybe Doyle and Tanner Franklin could potentially be options for you for potential start, just like they've done with Quinn Matthews.

Do you guys think it needs to be a young guy? No.
