Erik Cordier is the prospect that we got in the Tony Pena Jr. trade of the beginning of the season. Cordier has an upper 90’s fastball, and good control. Cordier experienced Tommy John surgery before the season started. According to Zach Jett of baby braves, “Erik Cordier has begun to throw all four of his pitches off the mound. His velocity hasn’t come back yet but his command of all four pitches has been solid.”
Tyler Flowers was the Rome Braves top position playing prospect is going to move to catcher full-time next season. This should really raise his value as a player. The Braves have also said that he is a fantastic defensive catcher.
