One great part of the new CBA that gets little press is the rookie promotion incentive, and it appears to be working. More top prospects breaking camp with the club instead of going to AAA to "work on their defense". Maybe that Mariners executive can get his job back, as this year they are having Julio Rodriguez break camp with the team.

Stott in Philly appears to have won the SS job. Hope he has good range to make up for the 7 DH's on the rest of his team.
