Wilner trying to pump up Tellez to the unwashed masses to divert attention away from the gaping hole left by Edwin. Typical corporate shill, nothing to see here.
I kinda get the feeling that Blanton really wanted to go there, for whatever reason. Surely there was more money to be made somewhere else on a 1 year deal.
He actually has connections and talks with scouts. He's been doing this for a long time. We have an insular community where a lot of groupthink occurs.
I agree with this. Sickels is considered one of the 'major' lists, and his opinion definitely carries a lot more weight than our compilation of baseless opinions & stat scouting.
