Yes

 

Until we trade 3 of our top 10 prospects, of course

[Angrioter]

With our top picks signed, are we a sure thing to be a mid tier (10-20) or better farm system again?

 

The 30 teams participated in the draft. Wait and see my bro, wait and see.

 

We need to develop guys into real players.

Yes, but we had two picks top 11 and neither are 16 year old high schoolers. This should boost us more than normal 1 first round pick year where we pick a hifpgh school pitcher and fail,to sign him.

Pompey, Norris

Pompey, Norris

 

Yes, but first, Pompey should hit AA-ball pitching (ALA Mookie

For Jason Hammel no doubt, because man this guy is pitching lights out for the first time in his career. Alex likes pumping the fans up with players he traded when they were their best.

[TheHurl]

I wonder why Arik Sikula was demoted to A+ again. Probably just roster crunching... He was tearing up AA. Possibly a future cheap bullpen option.

 

He has a pregnant girlfriend, could be a geographical thing for him (I don't know he's a Charleston guy originally which would probably be the same distance )...probably knocked up a Florida girl though

FantasyFrodo (Washington): Rank these pitchers: Jose Berrios, Daniel Norris, Marco Gonzales Rank these hitters for their bats: Hunter Dozier, Michael Taylor, Rio Ruiz, Jesse Winker Thanks!

 

Chris Rodriguez: Norris, Berrios, Gonzales. #BullDozier, Winker, Ruiz, Taylor.

#GAMEDAY

 

Patrick Murphy making his debut today?

[Mikeleelop]

Any good news from Alford?

[Frenchsoup]

 

How's are 2.5-3.5 war future CF doing?

[theblujay]

How's are 2.5-3.5 war future CF doing?

 

He's right on track

[GD]

27 PA lol, seriously guys?

[Frenchsoup]

Looks like he's striking out less and walking more, just a terrible babip lol.

[43211234]

A .056 babip is hilarious, regardless of the sample.

[GD]

Pimp-Foley

[43211234]

For his sake "this girl" had better be the one he's always tweeting about.

[Brenner]

Nobody is judging him on his 27 AA PAs.

 

Only 27 AA PAs, relax

[gruber92]

Goins quietly putting up some decent numbers.

 

.300 / .351 13BB 19K versus RHP.

 

Just saying..

He has a 77 wRC+.

 

Enough. It's not happening. He cannot hit. End of discussion.

What's his wRC+ against RHP?

 

If he gets called up,he'll only face RHP,so his overall wRC+ isn't relevant.

[Caper]

Frank Viola starts today for Dunedin

 

I was just about to come on and say that. Jays prospect... rocketing up the org.

[Angrioter]

Smoral

2 scoreless, walk, 2 K's

[Mikeleelop]

Lansing go 14 tonight

 

Compare

Alford 4/6 with a double

DJ Davis 0/6.........

[Mikeleelop]

C'mon Anthony, quit football

 

That would be my thought as well

 

Classic SSS but Alford is batting .467

[burlingtonbandit]

Not good news but Delabar blew a save in Buffalo. Gave up 3 ER in the 9th with a 2 run lead. Obviously hindsight but it would of been great to trade him in the off season when his value was sky high. You never know with relievers year to year.

[venema20]

It is to bad that Alford is leaving for football after this weekend. The kid could be a legitimate prospect if he focused on baseball. Id hate to see him waste his talents

[Atothe]

The kid has a pretty good hit tool. If he focused on baseball we could be talking about him in Dunedin right now.

I heard the hit tool was a question mark. Its the power/speed/arm that are the plus tools with the question being if he will hit enough.

Its sss so there may still be questions about his hit tool but man he's been impressive.
