Star of the Night
Alex Panteliodis!
Goat of the Night
Vicente Lupo is someone who I had high hopes for after Jason Parks showed him some love in the offseason and he absolutely killed it in the DSL as an 18-year old last season. The whiffs have always been there, but his hit tool was lauded and his power was deemed at least a plus tool. However, the GCL has not been kind to Mr. Lupo with his exceedingly high strikeout rate, and the disappearance of any power. There's still hope as he doesn't turn 20 until November, but his stock is currently taking a have hit.
