May 10, 200620 yr To all the guys in the know about Kris Harvey...is he still hitter well? And any chance of a callup to Carolina this year? If not, how far do you think he will advance?
May 10, 200620 yr He is the next coming of Miguel Cabrera. I am not just saying that because he is a legacy and my baby marlin though :thumbup His bat isnt tearing it up but he has been solid for the year so far. He has a killer arm and potential to be good. But he is 22 and playing at A ball. He needs to prove he can move up and get it together to really progress into future plans. I would love to see him get some time at 1B perhaps if Jacobs keeps struggling he could have a future there. But, it might be a waste of that killer arm he has.
May 10, 200620 yr He is the next coming of Miguel Cabrera. I am not just saying that because he is a legacy and my baby marlin though :thumbup awful comparison
May 10, 200620 yr He is the next coming of Miguel Cabrera. I am not just saying that because he is a legacy and my baby marlin though :thumbup awful comparison it was a joke honestly he could develope into a solid OF player thought defensively and with the bat.
May 10, 200620 yr 19/3 K/BB is alarming. Are you sure those aren't Abercrombie's numbers? No wait, the k's would be much higher.
May 10, 200620 yr Harvey is in a horrible slump I don't have the numbers but his past 15-20 games have got to be below the mendoza line.
May 11, 200620 yr I'm Pullin' for the Kid ! (Harvey) but he gets an extremely late jump on the balls hit to the outfield. He seems to be turning possible outs into base hits for the opposing team. It looks like he would be a better infielder. He does have a good arm and can run but does need a better eye at the plate. He still has a lot to prove if he wants to move quick through the system. Carolina, I doubt it this year. Maybe next year but thats pretty optimistic.
May 11, 200620 yr Between Harvey, Cabrera and Sanchez we better get extraordinary fielders to plug up the middle
June 3, 200620 yr Author You can work on defense. He'll always have that cannon. Hopefully his big bat is for real. Where do people see him ending the season?
June 4, 200620 yr If he can really get his offense going...High A to get a taste of better pitching. I thought High A was a hitter's league?
June 6, 200620 yr In the minors is not always about putting on the huge numbers it is about developing skills and abilities...Harvey is right on track...He will make his Dad and all us Marlin's fans proud soon enough
June 6, 200620 yr Author I'd hope not. I might be wrong, but with the rocket launcher he has, I assume he is penciled in @ LF in the near future. My guess would be Willingham or Jacobs gets 1B permanently and the other is moved, when Harvey is ready. Might be wrong though.
June 6, 200620 yr Harvey's K/BB ratio is alarming and if he doesnt improve that he isnt going to be much more than a 4th of.
