Reported in THE ATHLETIC this morning about a young Padres catcher.
Are you movin’ much too fast? Back in early April, Keith Law wrote about Padres catching prospect Ethan Salas, saying “I can’t believe this kid is 16.” Well, that 16-year-old kid (he turns 17 tomorrow) made his pro debut yesterday with the Low-A Lake Elsinore Storm. He made quite a splash: he doubled, singled and walked in his three plate appearances, meaning he enters his last day as a 16-year-old with a 1.000 on-base percentage in the minor leagues. There hasn’t been a 19-year-old catcher in the big leagues since Pudge Rodriguez in 1991, but the Padres’ willingness to promote Salas to affiliated ball before his 17th birthday suggests that he could be on track to be the next one.

Looking at BR he was actually 2 for 3.
I find it scary that there's a player in the California League who's barely older than me.

amazing that age just hope the maturity of the 16 year old can handle it. But an amazing story
