    I may be wrong , but I believe alot of players who jump from Class A to the big leagues are Rule 5 draft picks , so they have to stick , or get sent back to the team they were drafted from ....not sure if Santana was acquired by the Twins like that ....

    MLB players who went straight to the majors, no minor league experience, research by Baseball Almanac.

    Hey where are you from, Icee? I live in Goldsboro and go to both Granger Stadium in Kinston and 5 County. Grainger has more charm, but 5 County is more convenient and has more amenities.

    Thanks a bunch
    That's a TALL order. But I know of two, personally. The High Desert Mavericks (California League, Upper A) sent two pitchers to the parent KC Royals in 2005. Pitchers Chris Demaria and J P Howell.

    They were with the Mavericks at the start of the season, and were called up.
