I can't wait for you to start sharing what you were on when you made this post.

Key here is present tense. But there is zero question in the world where the upside lies, and it becomes a philosophical question at that point. Would you rather have a guy with a higher chance of being a 50 to 55 starting pitcher, or a guy whose ceiling is about a 65, but with a higher bust factor? The Sox have made their choice.

So Joc (7) + Q (8) + Colome (5) + 3 million = Hendriks (12) + Rodon (3) + Eaton (8) Former or Latter?

But stats?

A few former Sox organization members in that list.

Also of note, it looks like a woman is Senior Director of Minor League Operations in Grace Guerrero Zwit. I wonder what this means for Jeremy Haber, wasn't he the assistant GM before?

lol, wat? For a dude that is a DH in waiting?

Oof that is a disaster of a scouting report on Yogurt.

Bears out on Watson https://www.letsbeardown.com/articles/report-bears-out-of-deshaun-watson-sweepstakes/?fbclid=IwAR1bjn7p2qkcczEPBdCbSZGaDP3ECuNeqsgOuoN7UV8TNjHXqs-j9VuXtqA

This list looks a lot better if someone out of that Latin American group or Osik takes a big step forward this year.

So an agent that is willing to use whatever means possible to create a market for his players is weird and sad. In the 21st century where influencers have become such a part of society, I am only shocked that it isn't something used more and in more creative ways.

Some interesting maybes, but we definitely need more work in the premier positions on the diamond in the minors.

Except Don Cooper doesn't give AF about anyone else or what they think.

Why, because he is such a willing interviewer?

I have faith in you, you will find a way.

What do you think Andrew Vaughn would have gotten by facing a number 5 starter in High A ball that he didn't get by going up against Sox top prospect pitchers with better stuff?

Yeah if I could get a front line starter, Andrew Vaughn is at the top of my list of our top prospects I would be wiling to deal. The Sox offense is loaded, and we have a lot of other 1B/DH types behind him, as well as that Abreu guy in front of him. It isn't hard to see a scenario where they have Eloy going to DH a year or two down the road.

Even if he had a normal MiLB season, the Sox never utilize their drafted starting pitchers too much in the draft year. Usually they pick up very few innings until their next year.
