Rough start for Atlanta Braves prospect Mike Minor in the Arizona Fall League's Rising Stars Showcase on Saturday. The Braves' top pick in June lasted just 2/3 of an inning and gave up seven runs, six earned. Probably shouldn't read too much into that. We'll see more of the touted left-hander with the Mississippi Braves in the near future. Remarkably, Minor's team rallied to win 8-7, and 2009 M-Braves closer Craig Kimbrel worked the ninth for the save. M-Braves shortstop Brandon Hicks, who replaced Ole Miss product Zack Cozart on the West roster, went 0-for-2.
