Happy Friday, Eric. Not your domain but Trey Gregory-Alford is showing as playing for Seattle's A ball team on the fangraphs page...

When an unranked guy like Ben Rice takes off like this in the big leagues, what was usually missed in the prospect evaluation?

In his case i'd say it was just: Look how big and strong that left-handed hitter is, you wanna stay on that guy. Sometimes I'm just an idiot who stays skeptical for its own sake, and I think that's what happened there. We also had a huge run of guys crushing at Trenton/Somerset and then not doing anything (Diego Castillo, Hoy Park) and that put me off the scent some.
