Is it time to talk about Keston Hiura?

Ray27Ray52 · 07-07-2018, 12:46 PM

I think it's time. He could be a year away. He could be two years away. He could be called up next month. We don't know. But we do know that he has hit at every level. Unfortunately he is stuck in the black hole known as Milwaukee. Let's keep this thread going and talk about it.

Keep your stash and sell it when he is traded to mets

My favorite prospect, and I own nothing

ThoseBackPages · 07-07-2018, 01:07 PM

never heard of him

coltsfan23 · 07-07-2018, 01:09 PM

I think he's called up this year if he doesn't get traded. Brewers could really use a division title.

BostonNut · 07-07-2018, 01:10 PM

Who?

What is his slash WAR?

The fact he wasn't called up already leads me to believe he will be traded.

Better to be in Milwaukee than Baltimore

drstrader5 · 07-07-2018, 02:47 PM

Is he good? Just found these in my closet.

I think I have a few red refractors in my glove compartment!

Schocktown · 07-07-2018, 05:23 PM

Superfractor is in my billfold but don't worry I keep it safe in a penny sleeve.

shayscards79 · 07-07-2018, 06:21 PM

$80 for a raw base right? I think people have been talking for a while now.

Tarvan · 07-07-2018, 08:19 PM

I gave him a ride to the airport when he was promoted to Biloxi. Started following his progress since and am very impressed. I hope the Mets can get him in trade. Might be a future PC player for me.

BigL7370 · 07-07-2018, 09:36 PM

He looks like a pure hitter type - if he can stay relatively healthy I want to say he's sort of has potential to be Anthony Rendon lite.

OscarOne · 07-07-2018, 09:41 PM

He came through Hawaii in both 2016 and 2018 (here is his autograph from 2016). He was always really cool, and happy to talk/sign stuff.

His ding as a prospect was his health. His bat was clearly going to carry him to the majors, but that elbow of his was causing some teams to question his final position. His bat could probably play anywhere, but if he could stick to a MIF spot...man...watch out.

It says something that even with the dinged up chicken wing the Brewers were willing to take him as high as they did. And I think they made the right call.

Brewers would be stupid to trade him to the O's for a half year rental. Let the O's rape some other team for a bunch of prospects for a guy that will be a Yankee in 2019.

AwesomeBrian · 07-08-2018, 03:25 PM

I pulled his 80 Grade red auto 4/10 from Platinum last night. Nice looking card

Pasmith16 · 07-08-2018, 09:31 PM

Is it time to start talking about Hiura probably getting traded to the Orioles?

prospects · 07-13-2018, 11:17 AM

just bought a nice keston. finally got one

reddragonthe · 07-13-2018, 03:15 PM

Baseball Prospectus seems to think it’s time to talk Keston. Top 5. Probably ignoring the last couple weeks. Haha.

They should be ignored. Weeks of success in AA then he sustains a thumb injury and they don’t DL him and it affects his play. Should rest up and get healthy to show his #5 status again.

Ray27Ray52 · 01-08-2019, 06:45 AM

Anyone think he gets the call in 2019?
