DateQuestionAnswer
2017-11-17 13:00:00 (link to chat)I know you mentioned Livan Soto as a prospect in the lower minors for the Braves - what about Yunior Severino or Abraham Gutierrez?
(Jim from Norwalk, CT)		I do know Steve liked Severino, and he wasn't that far off Soto. A very different profile. Bat carries it, might not stick in the middle infield. Jasseel de la Cruz and Jeffrey Ramos were the other guys he liked from that GCL team. And hey, might be writing them up for the Futures Guide version of the list depending on how many players Atlanta loses. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
2017-11-03 13:00:00 (link to chat)If you didn't stop at 21, how many Braves prospects could you have kept writing up? Anyone from the Danville or GCL clubs that should be included?
(Drew from Atlanta)		Steve told me he easily could have found a few more guys from the GCL and Jack loves the Danville roster, so yeah, there were a few more. Livan Soto and Jasseel de la Cruz were two of the names that were among the last cuts. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
