    For those of us who were looking forward to getting a glimpse at Pence... too bad. :confused: The rosters for the MLB Futures Game were announced last week, and to my dismay Hunter Pence seems to be left off of the roster. What gives?

    The other American outfielders are better than him. They are higher ranked prospects at a higher level. Pence is 22 at low A ball.
