Rotoworld -
Royals prospect third baseman Mike Moustakas was promoted to Triple-A Omaha.
Well deserved. Moustakas' stock took a bit of a hit in 2009 by virtue of playing half of his games in Frawley Stadium with Single-A Wilmington, but the 21-year-old thrived with a promotion to Double-A Northwest Arkansas this season. He led the hitter-friendly Texas League with a .347 batting average, 21 homers, 76 RBI and a 1.100 OPS during the first half. Assuming he can handle Triple-A pitching, there's a chance we'll see him in September.

I'm shocked he stayed here as long as he did... Best of luck to him!

Royals third base prospect Mike Moustakas homered three times and finished with 11 RBI Monday at Triple-A Omaha.
Moustakas was drafted second overall in the 2007 first-year player draft and is putting up some gaudy numbers in the Royals' farm system. He hit a two-run homer and a three-run homer in the same inning Monday and is batting .326/.374/.637 this year in 454 at-bats between Double-A and Triple-A.

His 11 RBI's broke the Omaha record of 8 that was set by Kit Pellow (interesting)
and the 11 RBI is a new modern era record for the Pacific Coast League.
