Look at Ray Ray Run

Fair enough, my apologies. That was wrong of me.

Get into it with me? Lol. Present an actual fact based point and add something to the discussion that isnt some absurd arbitrary rule that encompasses players based on things outside of their control. Its amazing how everyone who plays and covers the game and watches him says hes about as incredible a bat as exist. It's almost like we are seeing the same thing. Weird. Pal, I'm giving you thought on what teams are looking for and how they evaluate risk. If you want to argue that a guy with two elite hit tools is the riskiest top 10 pick, then you go ahead and do so... just know you're factually wrong and that is not how an mlb team would evaluate risk. Risk is separation between PV and FV - which is why high school kids are inherently riskier as the math confirms.

True Jack, but risk is tied to the discrepancy between PV and FV. There is less risk tied to guys who are closer to their FV with their PV. Saying you dont draft guys based on their tools today is absolutely laughable.

Well no, I wouldnt be, as high schoolers by grade do not receive elite tool grades outside of speed and arm strength. I'm talking present value not FV. Maybe you're confused.

God that's so short and so quick. Unreal really. Agree with Byrnes, watching that swing is a thing of beauty.

What is funny? Name another one... a plus tool is not an elite tool.

No. Hes not. This is literally factually wrong no matter how many times you say.

There are only two players in this draft with 2+ elite tools right now - adley and rutsch.

Yeah, I had heard this as had most. I disagreed with law. They were passing on adley if he fell. They loved Witt

No, an absolute is saying something like never draft someone for some arbitrary reason.

Absolutes have no place in professional sports drafts.

Harold doesnt even know how many games are in a season.

The thing I hate most about adley is he switch hits. Already enough shit for the catcher to learn in the big leagues

Harold cant afford a jacket that fits? Jesus christ

Is harold really pretending that anyone thought Harper was a catcher?

Kenny and Hawk in cahoots to say fu to all the math nerds. Honestly as absurd as that sounds, this is white Sox baseball folks.

The bat speed difference between the two, and the incredible progress fletcher made in the past two years is what entices me so much - given his limited reps. His bat speed is elite while Hampton's is really good but not elite. The only real difference I see.

Fletcher is just Hampton with fewer reps, but possibly a higher ceiling.

Not if they told him not to show emotion. This is a show afterall.

Bobby Witt jrs gf could not look more Texas athlete girlfriend.

One of the biggest jerks to ever play the game. Looks like adley just got a call from the Orioles

Sox could probably work with Jackson ruthledge - honestly would be a great fit but no chance.

Poor kids... travel all the way to the draft just to be stuck talking to randy assmunch Johnson.

I want Tre Fletcher in the 2nd round.

We'll be in round 3, my guy tre fletcher will be off the board and harold will be saying... "honestly, I see Ken Griffey jr in this kid... and that's just a modest projection!"
