Lot of it was bad choices. How many teams would draft a non athletic Vaughn or a scrappy Madrigal.
This is nothing new. Kenny liked those 2 sport college players. If you play 2 sports in college you usually are not great at both.
Sometimes these picks that are offense first don't work since the best since the best bat .300 but what good is it that their defense is horrible and their speed is slower than Konerko.
Relying on other teams at scouting is nothing new here.
