Not the licenses, the actual name. Its ptatc not ptac. Although the are my medical licenses.

You mentioned a few regressing, I mentioned a few progressing. The system isnt perfect here everyone is progressing. Both Montgomery progressed. With McDougals stuff he is more than a 45 if he maintains the control which progressed this year. I disagree Smith is a reliever. Schultz is a question mark due to health. Quero is also a positive. If you want to dive deep antonacchi looks to he an MLB piece. There are few few relievers who progressed as well. The draft philosophy is also a positive. I know we are going to agree but there are many positives especially in the lower levels.

Some of the prospects did some excelled. Bonemer was a league MVP. Montgomery did well through the system. The changes they made with Smith didn't work early but did well later. McDougal took a massive jump forward. My overall grade is based in the fact that we all know JR isnt going to spend for big free agents. So the only real option for Getz to have a winning team is to draft well and develop them. I like all of the changes they made for development. The minors as whole are improving. I really like the draft of the two high school kids. The new complex in yhe DR will help the international players as well. The down side is that all of it takes time. Looking solely at the MLB club this year is short sighted. I get it they sucked but I think they also achieved the goals this year. First and foremost get the best odds for a top draft pick. Second show progress from the young players. What they did with Montgomery is outstanding. He looked like he may never make the MLB. We became an above average MLB shortstop after all they issues. So overall, a B for the organization progress, not necessarily the MLB club in isolation.

My grade was based what he did for yhe entire organization not just the MLB team. If the question was what happened only at the MLB level the answer would be different.

You could at least getting my name right when you want to stereotype me by your bias.

Has nothing to do with performance.

That would be interesting as its been reported that many pitchers dont like throwing to Lee.

Those were the ones that Venable was allowed to hire for himself i believe. This is nothing more than Venable being allowed to bring in more of his guys. Last year they didn't want to change everything at once.

The best.

Ill take that bet.

Really good. The resteraunt is down here in New Lenox.

The Hog wild brisket nachos also improved as the year progressed.

I just think it's going to be a bigger fight and strike/lockout than you think. The players think short term as their careers are relatively short. Thevowners are playing the long game.

This is where I think you are wrong. Its pretty well known that many teams are not making money. The twins have significant debt. JR brought ishbia on to pay off debt. Many teams are probably making money but not all of them.

Got it. Agreed.

McDougal has been more consistent for the first game.

Possible, if it was bothering him for a while. Legs and the transfer of kinetic energy up the chain drives everything. But no more than 4-6 weeks back. If it was longer than that they most likely would have given him a longer time off.

Yes. Patellar tedinopathy in his knee. Shutting him down for the season to let it heal and rehab.

It a good plan if the tendonopathy is reoccurring. That's not something you want to linger, especially with a guy that tall. Unfortunate.

I have 100 on 50.5.

Yep, grade 2 is about 6 weeks. 4 at the absolute positive best.

Had to wait for all the mail in ballots. 😁

I agree with everything except the 100 loses next year. They will have enough talent within the organization to not lose 100.

Oppor is not coming fast. At least 2 years away. Only 21 and needs many more innings.

Other teams. Its a league
