Anthony Prato got called up to Double-A Wichita Wind Surge from High-A Cedar Rapids Kernels. Prato was a 2019 7th round pick and has some really good numbers this year

-> When Patrick Winkel made his High-A career debut with the Cedar Rapids Kernels on May 25, he was hardly a lone Connecticut Yankee in the midst of an Iowa cornfield.

At the top of the Kernels’ lineup that day was Anthony Prato, a 2019 teammate of Winkel’s at UConn who was roommates with Winkel’s older brother, Chris, for three years at Storrs.

And right below Winkel on the lineup card, hitting eighth, was Kyler Fedko, with whom Winkel roomed during his own three years in Storrs.

“The Cedar Rapids Huskies,” quipped Jim Penders, who coached all three on the UConn baseball team.

Indeed, while it’s certainly not rare for former college teammates to cross paths as teammates throughout the minor-league ranks, for three former teammates from one Northeast school — and not a “super power” like Tennessee, Vanderbilt or Stanford — to be together on the same minor-league squad is certainly ...

“Kind of a little deja vu,” according to Winkel.

“Pretty crazy stuff,” added Fedko.

“An amazing set of circumstances,” Penders summed up.<-

On the one hand, not sure if these guys should be in this thread. OTOH, looking forward to Burrows making it to PNC because the Bucs are really thin in SP, especially since Keller isn't panning out and Quintana will be a trade chip.

Glad to see Tim getting back to AA after a tough stint in Harrisburg last year.

I love to see this. I was wondering if Tim was getting too old but nice to see him back in AA.

Certainly not too old. Lost a year due to the minor league shut down due to COVID. This is an important promotion for him as he needs to overcome the mental hurdle of getting beaten up at the AA level last year.

Goats will be a challenge for him. Was thinking about going to game to see him. Hope this demotion and time down at A ball will help his approach and long term success.
