  1. I am starting to believe we have 3 top 50 prospects in all of baseball in Carolina right now. Wow. Made being as advertised isn't even the story here. How good have Peña and Payne been? I'd wager they're flying up prospect rankings. Huge speed and power tools with both.... but the mature approach they have and the swing decisions??? They're both making has me dangerously optimistic.
  2. Historically the Carolina league is pretty neutral to pitcher friendly.
  3. 3rd base is a black hole and was a massive oversight by the front office. Would have been nice to have gotten a legit player for that position. Capra and Dunn aren't gonna cut it. I also have serious serious doubts about Durbin there too.
  4. Priester is far closer to Adrian Houser than he is to Corbin Burnes....
  5. Arnold man I don't know. This is by far the worst trade of his tenure here on its surface. Shane Smith is better than Priester and we had him on our roster the whole time. But decided to give sports to Elvin and Connor Thomas instead. Two back to back baffling decisions. And I am extremely pissed about losing that pick and its bonus pool slot.
  6. Yessir! It is gonna be one heck of a fun summer in Zebulon. That roster is absolutely STACKED.
  7. The seeing possible time this year in AA was not me wish casting btw. That is a direct quote from Ben Badler and the Baseball America pod. I think that is very audacious though and unlikely.
  8. A mock with us getting Gavin Fien?! GIVE HIM TO ME
  9. I'd assume Pena is gonna join him in Carolina. I think the front office is excited about Pena as well. Norris (who was the first on Chourio breakout in the mainstream) actually saw Pena in person and liked him more than Made. I'm sure that's changed now but if both can hold their own/play well in low A. Well... that is one hell of a one two punch of prospects. I think there is a realm where Made sees a touch of time in AA though that probably is too aggressive for my taste nor do I think its super likely. Just possible.
  10. You don't draft for need in the MLB draft. What your system "needs" this year might have an adequate amount of talent the next. You never know how guys will develop. You draft who you think has a punchers chance at making the big leagues. I believe the brewers have recently gone with a model based on traits (I am purely speculating based on INTL. signings and draft picks) So far it has worked extremely well. You draft the guy that you think has unique, plus traits, and try to unlock the others to make them a complete prospect. Bishop Letson is a good example of this. ELITE extension with poor to middling stuff coming out of H.S. Sort of a unique arm slot too. Now take a look at the jump the stuff has taken after being in the lab. I really like the approach
  11. Great piece of inside out hitting by Yophery. For some reason he goes under the radar when people are talking about Brewers prospects. Lot of projection left in that body and he was not overwhelmed by much more advanced competition last year. He held his own. Still like him a lot going forward. Adamczewski is FUN. I think he could be in for a big year as well. He torched rookie ball and low A last year, Excited to see both these cats in Appleton.
  12. Great point with Dunn he is very under the radar as well. I am much higher on Dunn than I am on Durbin, but would've preferred a proven 3B option in the mix as well.
  13. Bingo. Elite bad speed, good chase rate (17.6%), good walk % (11.2%), really good defense in centerfield, burner on the bases. He even was working with driveline to fix the hole in his swing at the top of the zone. Like you said he just has to stay healthy. Please baseball gods!
  14. There are 3 players in the MLB with a bat speed > 75 mph (200 swing minimum) and a sprint speed in the 90th+ percentile. Elly De La Cruz Julio Rodriguez Can you guess the 3rd? Hint: I think all of his peripherals adds up to a big year on the horizon.
  15. Some guys just take longer to find that release point. He is still super young, and the stuff is still hellacious though. It is gonna play amazing out of the pen. I think he ultimately ends up a high leverage reliever but I do not fault them for still keeping him as a starter. Things can click but his control grade currently makes that an uphill battle.
  16. My early draft crush right now is Gavin Fien HS IF out of Great Oak. Really really like the bat and the projection. I think he can add power to an already great frame for a HS. He's got some serious pop for a 17 year old. And the bat is super quick in the zone. Finds the barrel, Hope he doesn't get too much helium.
  17. It is also only one year of control for Cortes that is the bummer. The prospect comes in at 24 in their system from arguably the worst farm in baseball. I don't like scouting the statline. So I put very little stock in a Fall League jump with such a small sample. Kid also sounds injury prone as all get out. WHICH normally I don't buy into could be bad luck but sometimes there is a pattern there. Breadsticks in NEW have always been on top must be a regional placement lol. Breadsticks in NEW have always been on top must be a regional placement lol.
  18. Devin being a malcontent must have really soured his value. I don't care if it was just one year of control he still was one of the better closers in baseball and all the Brewers could get in return was one year of Cuban Suter (I am exaggerating a bit) and a 5'6 prospect that has to probably stand on his tippytoes to grab a cheesefilled breadstick at KwikTrip. I'd wager we would have got more at the deadline than a prospect with a Monasterio level FV, but whatever such is the life of a small market
  19. Not sure I call a guy with EVs comparable to Sal someone with "pop"
  20. Incredible article with Yoho headlining it on Baseball America. Put it this way the changeup is an outlier of an outlier type of pitch. It is off the charts unique. Expect him up for a reliever role for the playoff push possibly Miz too.
  21. Nice thank you! Really really fun stuff to hear and I am stoked to see him stateside ASAP!
  22. No I have been searching on X for the blurb though. Thought ESPN+ came with my streaming package but guess not lol
  23. Kiley just ranked him 45th in his top 100. I am floored with how aggressive his placement is. But I respect the hell out of Kiley's evaluation and his connections. Wow I got goosebumps seeing that. Only Emil Morales from (LAA) as the other DSL rep. Rival execs see a possible superstar here. Credit to the INTL scouting dept. they have been killing it and then some.
  24. Pratt and Burke in Appleton? As someone that lives in the valley!
