    I’m terrible at linking stuff, but we are the top farm system on mlb.com

    The difference is that our depth is unproven, over-drafted, and under 20. No hype at all, and everything needs to be earned. Other teams probably have equal current talent grades but I’m personally not going to count a 23 year old, 8th round drafted, 35 FV guy like an 18 year old valued the same. But it’s also not a video game, and potentials don’t always go up. We just got to ride it out and say “duh, told you so” when it all works out (hopefully).

    I wanna say at some point in 2005/2006 we had Weeks, Fielder, Braun, Hardy, Hart, Gallardo, Alcides Escobar, Lorenzo Cain, and Nelson Cruz.

    Juan Ortuno and Handelfrey Encarnacion in Carolina. I just think they’re neat.

    I’m still in awe that Drew Rom faced Drew Romo today.

    Sure seems like everyone is throwing sinkers.

    Going to tell my kids I witnessed the rise of Spencer.
  8. snoogans8056
    Add Fischer and the DH to this as well. Them all being a perfect mix of left/right is also pretty cool for platoon purposes too.

    Brought it up in a previous thread, but Wilken and Adams had weird splits vs. LHP. Wilken had only 43 ABs with a .163/.419/.442 (18 BB to 16 K) Adams put up .214/.450/.333 over 42 ABs (14 BB to 15 K) Maybe some bad luck with the averages, but the OBPs hiding behind them are pretty studly.

    I don’t think we will have many top 100 guys. Top 100 is all hype and velo. We are starting with 17th round picks that throw 90. It’s an uphill climb. Letson needed top 1% extension with 97mph (and health) to break in.
  11. snoogans8056
    Wande Torres with 97 mph lefty sinkers…? Seems all over the place, but dang.
  12. snoogans8056
    They can’t frame the Durbin trade around the team being cheap. Its harder to rationalize them just being smarter than us.
  13. snoogans8056
    Any guys come to mind that were a bit more banged up last year than we’d have known? Maybe expecting more from this year with better health luck?
  14. snoogans8056
    So this year’s draft class would be the class of 2023 in high school. Our 2023 high school signees were: Josh Knoth Eric Bitonti Cooper Pratt Bishop Letson Bjorn Johnson Hayden Robinson Josh Adamczewski Our first real big high school class in the rounds 11-20 era. Will be cool to see how they’d have stacked up with this 2026 college class (which everyone is calling one of the best in years).

    Brock Wilken wins the 3B job out of camp.
  16. snoogans8056
    I think promotions are going to be heavily influenced by 40-man, this year more than any other. Quero, Jett, Wilken, and Adams are going to be the only positional call ups this year. Quero is already on the 40, and the other three will have to be added after the season. No one else will even have a wiff of a 40-man spot due to the potential lockout. That will, however, set the stage for a potential 2027 AAA lineup made entirely of top 100 prospects…. C: Dinges 1B: Burke 2B: Made SS: Pratt 3B: Fischer LF: Adamczewski CF: Lara RF: Pena
  17. snoogans8056
    I’m all in on Wilken being a better MLB player than prospect. Too much bad luck, too much stop/start. If he plays all season last year, I think he’s no doubt our opening day 3B.
  18. snoogans8056
    What if the bullpen depth is created by bussing guys back and forth from AAA? Heck, could one of your piggy back tandems also move back and forth?
  19. snoogans8056
    I did look up this last draft class and I’m way less worried. First round will be maximum savings (like Fischer), but we saved only 250k on Ebel, and 150k on Cairone. Every other pick was by the book except for Flores in the 4th (about 125k over slot). So in the end last year we only really saved big on the first pick, and 250k on Ebel (Cairone and Flores cancel out-ish). We can probably still do some of our wild stuff in 11-20.
  20. snoogans8056
    Looks like we traded our Comp B pick with Durbin. Gonna be a weird draft based on us having roughly half the money we are used to. Do we go with all senior signs from the 4th round and on? Gonna be a whole new experience this year.
  21. snoogans8056
    Brock Wilken is the controllable young 3B.
  22. snoogans8056
    Sure feels like Megill and Patrick are our next selling at their high point guys… We are clearly clearing out the infield for that wave of prospects coming up. 1B / DH: Adams, Wilken, Burke, Fischer 2B: Turang SS / 3B: Pratt, Jett, Made 3B: Wilken, Fischer Sign Turang to an extension, let him be the adult in the room.
  23. snoogans8056
    How do they go about rehab? In my head it’s a room of Knoth, Broughton, etc. all rehabbing together. Or do they do that independently, closer to home?
  24. snoogans8056
    More to you as someone with an ear to the wall. But now after re-reading the post, it seems to be strictly injury related questions.
  25. snoogans8056
    Is there anyone in the system that we’d be surprised at how giddy the front office is over them? Basically someone they’re calling their shot on? Sorry, I get antsy when this forum goes a day without a post.
