Prospect Potent Potables - 4/21

• Only two games into his big league career, Mets' first baseman Ike Davis is getting some pretty lofty comparisons, reports The New York Daily News.  It's not like the kid was playing in a pressure-free environment to begin with...
• We knew it wasn't going to continue to be this easy for Austin Jackson, whose career is off to a good start for the Detroit Tigers, but is striking out with record consistency, according to John Lowe of the Detroit Free Press.
• Given the Indians' unsettled infield situation, Tony of Indians Prospect Insider suggests that Jason Donald could be knocking on the door as the solution at second base.
• If you think Cardinals' pitcher Jamie Garcia is off to a good start, consider the pitchers he's been matched up against, says Matthew Leach of MLB.com.  After his next start, Garcia will have faced pitchers with a total of 4 Cy Youngs in his first three starts of the season.
• Mention the Washington Nationals' farm system, and you will undoubtedly end up in a conversation about Stephen Strasburg, but as Ben Goessling of MASNsports.com points out, the Nats have a lot more help on the way than just Strasburg (namely Jeff Kobernus and Chris Marrerro, who feels like he's been around forever already, but is still young for Double-A).
• But let's not forget Strasburg, who is currently participating in one of those things you only see in minor league baseball, a 10:30 a.m. start.  If you think 100-mph is hard to hit normally, try doing it before lunch.
