First Impressions is a look at recent call-ups, a snapshot of their early progress in the majors. Initial BaseballHQ.com Call-Ups reports on the players in today's column can be found in the Content tab on their individual PlayerLink pages (linked from the player name below). Because many of these players have accumulated less than 150 PA or 60 IP, small sample size warnings apply to the analysis here.
