Planes are the ideal reading environment, no interruptions, few rival activities that are as enjoyable, someone will bring you a drink if you ask, and it helps keep your posture. What's not to love

Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz delivered five innings of shutout baseball with 8 Ks and 1 walk. He’s put together an incredible season. The walks have dialed down since his promotion to AA. Looks like that higher level of competition has not phased him in the slightest.

Cody Bellinger and Trent Grisham are both good defenders and well above-average offensive producers this year. how is it a topic of conversation every time Jasson Dominguez doesn't play?

great park to watch a game, too. but they might miss Esmerlyn Valdez, Javier Rivas and Omar Alfonzo (gone to Double-A) if they face strong pitching in the postseason

this Grasshoppers team feels like one of the more dominant minor league squads we've seen in a while now 76-30 on the year (best record in all of MiLB) and 39-11 since top prospect Konnor Griffin joined the team on June 10

but the lineup with those guys, plus Griffin and Keiner Delgado, is one of the more fun minor league lineups I can remember
