Projected AAA bats

[Chad Turner]

1B Johnston 26 HRs
SS Gray 30
SS Amaya 15
3B Myers 16
LF Burdick 24
CF Mesa Jr 18
RF Conine 20
C Banfield 23

3B Bride 13

SS/2B/3B Devers 7

Bench: these guys only got a half season worth of ABs last year.  

OF Costes 6

C Pereda 6

C McIntosh 14
C/1B Hostetler 14
CF Davis 7
OF/1B Mancini 6

That group hit 239 HRs last year.  I haven't seen numbers like that out of a Marlins minor league team ever.  The concerning number is that they amassed 1504 Ks.  

Notes:  As of now I have Brujan (who is out of options), Myers, and Edwards making the opening day roster.  There's no way we have 3 SS and 4 C or 15 total.  But all these guys will spend time in AAA unless they get cut.  

Thoughts?

I'm not sure we know how to evaluate 2023 AAA numbers yet. I know offense across the league was way up in large part to ABS but I haven't seen anyone try to adjust the numbers yet (but it might be out there).

Right after you put this up, Jonah Bride arrived. If he doesn't squeeze onto the active roster, he'll see a lot of action in AAA. Hit a career-high 13 HR in a half-season at AAA last year, but leaving the juiced offensive environment of Las Vegas, I think that total would come down.

Yep.  Somehow I forgot to type Groshans anyway.  I guess I jinxed him.
