The Phillies got some notice this week as Aaron Nola became the first Gold player on the Phils. Odubel Herrera was also boosted up to 83 overall and is now on the cusp of going Gold.

A bunch of other young, talented players got boosts as well. That list includes Trayce Thompson, Jackie Bradley Jr., Trevor Story and Nick Castellanos.

Yadier Molina needs some love. This guy mashes right handed pitching at a .350 clip yet he sits at 74 vs RH pitching and an overall 83. He needs gold status soon hitting .315 and still one of the best catchers in the game. BTW this is coming from a Dodger fan so of course I'm not a big Cards supporter.

As a Cards fan, obviously I agree. Even if I weren't, I'd still agree. They've always been hard on him though. He's not a power guy but he sprays all sides of the field and does it at a high rate, especially for a defensive minded catcher.

I also wish Aldemys Diaz would get the love he deserves. Is he going to hit .380? Not and probably not even close but offensively, he's shown he has the ability to hit for average along with a bit of power. Once he can get his throwing under control, he could be one of the most well rounded shortstops the cards have had in a long time. Hitting is something that can't really be taught. Fielding can. It's a mental thing for him, if he can overcome it, he'll be great.

I think Diaz deserves a bump, but a small one. His scouting reports werent outstanding, and he isnt considered a "bat" prospect. If he's still hitting .330+ come July 1, then bump him deservedly.

A lot of the unproven young hitters it seems are getting the wait and see approach when it comes to their ratings. Diaz and Jackie Bradley are both in similar situations, and they've only seen small bumps.

Yadier was not good last year hitting, he deserved any downgrades he got then. He's bounced back this year though, no disagreement there.
