1Cubfan, it looks like you posted that post a couple of times, so I removed one of the duplicates.
As far as Pie, I like your idea with Pierre, but I like Pierre in the leadoff spot, given there are bats behind him to drive him in. Personally, I think Pie can use maybe a half of a season more to dominate AAA, and would like to see a midseason callup.
As far as his ability on the field, I've always had the impression, Pie is the kind of player that can dominate all aspects of a game, sort of like Andruw Jones. Pie just needs to become more consistent, but he certainly does show flashes of brilliance like last night.

Your stats on Harvey were incorrect. Daytona actually played a double header with Harvey going 2 for 3 in the first game with a homer (one RBI), and 1 for 3 with a pair of RBIs in the second game. I assume some of the other reported results from Daytona are incorrect too as a result, but I only checked Harvey. You can get the stats from both games by going to "schedule" on the MiLB page. There is an archive of box scores on there.

To the anonymous poster, the minor league reports are for the previous days games. In other words, the 8/25 report was Thursday's games.
I'll pick back up on Monday with a weekend report.
As far as Harvey, I still have hope based on his last two months, and his walk rate going up in August. That being said, scouts still say he is struggling with the curveball.
This should be particularly evident at the AA level next season.

Kyle, I did a little research which pointed me to John Sickels prospect retro of Jason Bay.
I couldn't find anything about Bay struggling with curveballs, but it was interesting to see his line in the FSL as compared to Harvey.
