Some bad Barons defense let Nastrini down in the first inning

Elko played for Ole Miss in the CWS with a torn ACL, so maybe that's what you were thinking of.

For those interested, JJ Cooper clarified why BAs mid-season ranking of Lee saw him plummet from 7 to 29.

Those fake accounts have been awfully quiet recently...

Works for me as long as I don't have to watch Gavin play anymore

Just you wait until TA moves to catcher, problem solved

It hasnt been good, but it's also 30 innings

Sure does

He has 16 in 50 games played this season with a combined .935 OPS between Kanny & WS. I'd say that seems like machine-pace to me

You mean to tell me that every single prospect won't work out and become a perennial all-star? Blasphemous.

Lol you're reaching here. I never said it was all good because I'm well aware that it isn't and said as much. However, it's also not the 2012 White Sox top 30 list compromised of Addison Reed and trash. That was an absolute trash system.

All I'm saying is that the stat-line scouting of collective numbers like you mentioned points out obvious flaws, of which I'm not disputing. But strictly looking at those and basing an opinion on that doesn't take into account the context of said numbers or the individual output of certain players vs journeyman gas-cans and roster fillers. It's important to dive into the individuals that are most likely to help the club, and I believe there are a fair amount of interesting options that are in the lower minors.

Like others have mentioned, as it stands right I'd put them in the bottom third of systems. We'll see if that's altered any post-deadline. I don't disagree that the system is still lacking, but I wouldn't define it as trash either.

You know it's a bunk list when they have Jacob Gonzalez at two and Schultz still at four.
