January 28Jan 28 59 minutes ago, WestEddy said: Interesting - this would seem like an easy pickup. Former top 100 prospect, LHH RF, 23 years old, still has an option left. It's that old "lack of plate discipline" bug. FanGraphs had him as Colorado's #5 prospect last year: Looks like he was the #3 prospect in the Rockies farm system in 2024 and #6 in 2025. Would be an obvious claim if he could play CF but it looks like he’s a RF. Swingitis and perhaps lack of contact is his issue but his minor league numbers still look pretty good and he has youth on his side. He just turned 23 — New Year’s baby. I propose we make him this year’s Canario and talk about him until Getz finally claims him… or doesn’t, and he goes to play in Japan. Edited January 28Jan 28 by WhiteSox2023

January 28Jan 28 Does anyone know when this was recorded? Getz mentions a significant reliever at around the 23 second mark. I’m assuming that’s in reference to Domínguez but not sure.
