Jordan Thompson promoted BEFORE Tre Morgan

Yeah, I didn't see that coming either.


JT was at Low A hitting .233/.400/.465 over 43 ABs with 11 Rs, 11 RBIs, and 2 HRs...and 10 walks vs 16 SOs
He's now at High A hitting .250/.444/.400 over 20 ABs with 5 Rs, 2 RBIs, and 0 HRs...and 4 walks vs 4 SOs.

Tre should be promoted soon too.
He's still at Low A hitting .304/.392/.478 over 69 ABs with 14 Rs, 5 RBIs, 2 HRs, 7 SBs...and 9 walks with 10 SOs

Morgan's promotion hinges on either current top 1B prospect Xavier Isaac getting promoted from High A to AA, but he's not exactly killing it, or the other 1B getting promoted. Random other guy is sucking. So perhaps we see Tre and random suck guy swap out. From there, Tre could show his defensive prowess and makes everyone wonder who the hell Xavier Isaac is.

Anybody want to claim they thought JT would be LSU's first minor league promotion this year?

FWIW, I picked those guys because they were both at the same level. Not fair to compare them to Crews and Skenes. But even if we did, would you have bet JT gets promoted before Skenes (from AAA to MLB) or Crews (from AA to AAA)?
