Tate Southisene - Moving up to Double-A Southisene is being promoted to Double-A Columbus, Geoff Pontes of Baseball America reports. Impact Southisene will take the next step in his professional career, joining Columbus after posting a .255 average with four home runs, 16 RBI, 26 runs scored and nine stolen bases over 145 at-bats in 38 contests with High-A Rome. Southisene is considered to be Atlanta's top overall prospect, and as a 19-year-old, he is now just two stops away from making his major-league debut.
