Hello, friends.
With just one week until the calendar flips to June, you know what that means -- that's right, we're only seven days away from me dressing up like Pikachu for our son's second-annual Pokemon birthday party so a whole pack of feral six-year-olds can throw homemade Pokeballs at me. Please, keep me in your thoughts.
*This will end the official costume count for the school year, with PikaNick joining DumbleNick(2x), Giggles McNickels the Leprechaun, and the Tin Diesel Man.
This time of year also means that prospect cash-in season is picking up steam again after the first waves have passed. Pressing team needs (but definitely not service clock manipulation), mean more and more top prospects will soon be hitting the field. With that in mind, let's look at a handful of guys who could be getting the call soon.

‘Stash Party’ could allude to so many different scenarios when just seen out of context.
I love watching Cedanne play the OF, but if the Sox can improve their lineup, he should be a late inning defensive replacement, not an everyday starter. I feel like they went into this year with a rigid plan and just aren’t bending from it, which is absolutely ridiculous.
