The report is unconfirmed, but this seems to be more than just reading the tea leaves. According to Baggarly, Posey has been playing first base in Triple-A and general manager Brian Sabean personally scouted Posey last week to see if he was ready. Baggarly speculates that if recalled, Posey would see the majority of his playing time at first base rather than behind the plate, though he could see an occasional start there as well. If true, this story means the first of the truly top class prospects will be coming to the majors, with players like Stephen Strasburg and Mike Stanton soon to follow. Posey is hitting .349/.442/.552 with six home runs and 32 RBI so far this season at Triple-A Fresno.
