Yep lol. Here's the article snoogans is referring to. It's pretty insane seeing the comparison to all of the big DSL performers over the last 3-4 years. 

YouTube video JJ Cooper and Geoff Pontes released a few weeks ago is linked in that article. Do not watch this if you do NOT want to get excited about Jesus Made:

Also I don’t think it’s a coincidence that we have an insane DSL class in what just happens to be first year with the new facility.

The whole group may be more prepared (both physically and mentally) than those that came before them.

Could be especially exciting with 17 year olds getting the full pitching lab experience before even coming stateside.

Hard not to get chills watching this. The old school part of me still says don't go crazy off of DSL numbers, but with the evidence they lay out it is really hard not to. The fact they went through the hypothetical of him being the consensus 1.1 in next years draft is crazy.

yeah and that 1.1 was a no brainer

I think putting him 17th in their top 100 is too high.  I'm very excited about him but there is little history to show future success using the trackman data.  It all makes sense logically, especially the combination of elite number he has. I just take pause getting too excited about him. I've already got him in my top 10 brewers prospects and that feels rushed.  Carolina should be really revealing.
