surprised nobody had him yet.

The 6'1 200lb Roberts hit .416/.575/.746 as a jr for High Point University (NC)..3rd team All American

His first yr in Beloit ,after not joining the team till May 1 & despite playing only 7gm after July 6, was solid.

As a 5th round pick & 23 yr old, why hasnt he moved up.....he should be more of a prospect & he has performed.
His .894 Beloit OPS is actually higher than Miguel Sano's .848.
Is MN sticking him in Beloit cause Lance Ray (.204) Angel Morales (.213) Danny Rams (.194) & Dan Ortiz (.274) are blocking him????
