Yet we have not seen any call ups... which does not make any sense at all.
I am not sure calling up guys with mediocre numbers at best over their minor league careers just because they are hot to start the season is going to do a lot for the major league team.

I would also be very leery of putting too much stock into hitting numbers at AAA for any team/player.
