Does Atlanta have any outfield prospects that could be ready by the time they lose Profar and Yaz (after 2027)?
Brendan Gawlowski

They'll be one of my first lists after prospect week. Suffice to say: they're really thin on bats right now.

My thought is that with Donovan onboard, only one of Cole Young or Colt Emerson makes the team (barring injuries). Who is your pick?

Emerson
Power vs Contact
2:58
Two high school draft prospects, one has 80 contact 20 power and the other has 20 contact 80 power, every other tool is identical. Which do you choose? Would your answer change if it was 70/30 or 60/40?

If those are the future projections we're in trouble with both of these guys.

Everyone talks about depth in a system, but is all depth created equal? The Brewers and Cards for example: one drafts more high schoolers than anyone else, and the other only college.

Depth is not created equal but there are plenty of ways for depth to be valuable. Do you have a lot of pitchers who could be sixth or seventh inning relievers like NYY? That's great. Do you have a bunch of risky but high upside bats like Seattle? Different kind of depth, but that's useful too. Do you have just so. many. guys. like AZ? Well, one of them probably exceeds their projection in a big way and that's also great.

Is there any team that misevaluates their pitching more than Baltimore? Albernaz just said Baz’s upside is a “Cy Young award winner.” Uhhhh you sure about that Craig??

Not crazy. I don't think he'll do it but, well, Porcello and Ray have one on the mantle in the last ten years...

End of April if things go well. Could drift into May.

I knew I was at the bottom of the barrel and scraping it, when I brought you on the force, Gawlowski!  What do you know about anything? You probably had your bread buttered on both sides since the day you were born!

I get a question/comment like this every week and I don't really know what to make of it. But it does seem like a good time to skedaddle. Thanks for stopping by!
