January 18, 20215 yr I like him but I'm afraid of what we would've given up. I don't think he's such an upgrade over Q, for example, to give up pieces when you could have another SP for just $.

January 18, 20215 yr Author one of the reasons I’m grateful for Sox shift to working budgets to get top prep guys - head was given 3 mill in third round in 2019. As we saw in Padres other trades, getting young, athletic, toolset guys in system hold value for a long time and can be converted well in trades.
January 18, 20215 yr The Padres ain’t fucking around. Pretty nuts they have added Snell, Darvish, & Musgrove and still have a half dozen top 100 prospects.
January 18, 20215 yr Is Hudson Head the equivalent of Jared Kelley, as far as rankings/prospect status?

You mean over-slot college hitters in the second aren’t the way to go?
January 18, 20215 yr The Padres are doing big things. Good for them for attacking it the way they have.
January 18, 20215 yr Waiting for the “who cares about the Padres” posts when they or the Dodgers are the teams the Sox would have to face in the World Series...

January 18, 20215 yr Author Respect to preller. Part of this you can see is after last year they weren’t going to have an important year of their window just handing spots to young pitchers. Braves have had same struggle but then they all put it together in September/oct. Im of them mind that it’s ok to let those dudes force their way in to a spot when they’ve shown they can command and get AAA hitters out and aren’t just throwing their top stuff all over the place and relying on inferior hitters to get themselves out.

Still can’t believe we couldn’t extract an older lottery ticket type prospect for Basabe, although I guess we can add that to the long list of ways the Padres have fucked us...lol.
