I know you guys always had a 50FV on Candelario. Up until this year, he hasn't proved worthy of that projection. But he's been truly excellent for almost all this year, and seems to be locked in. Where are you at with him now? Still a 50FV, average regular at the corners?

still a 50 for me

Do you ever have concerns about lack of diversity of prospect type with teams?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:12
yes, especially on the pitching side. If you have all top-of-the-zone 4sm types, won't it be easier for opposing hitters to make in-game or in-series adjustments against your staff?

which of the higher ups do i talk to to get your prospect profile blurbs to show up on their fangraphs player page? I'll try and make my case as politely as possible

it's been discussed but the worry is that it makes The Board redundant and less useful.

Why is Gavin Lux and others with more than 100 ABs still on the Board?

Are teams operating their Dominican academies at all at this point, and if so, do they have guys who would normally be stateside in the low minors working there?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:16
in some cases, yes
not in an official capacity, though

FWIW, I think the Board is most often useful for sortable stuff, I don't think adding the write ups would diminish my personal use

Is the Phillies' current bullpen situation attributed to poor development or scouting? How can they be so bad Eric??
Eric A Longenhagen

some of it is just bad luck, fatty. Seranthony (maybe they botched the timing but they can't help he got hurt), Robertson, Arano getting hurt (he looks heavy at the campsite, btw) Llovera not ascending.

Any change to Weather’s ceiling if the fastball stays 95-96?
Eric A Longenhagen

I guess. It's been up and down over the last year or so, though.

I've gotta scoot. Thanks for coming this week. I've gotta move again in the coming weeks (COVID/landlords, man) so my chat schedule may be variable but I hope everyone is doing the best they can to stay well. bye bye
