Any reason why Kurtz has been so hard to nail down in particular?
Eric A Longenhagen

He checks some very specific boxes (big guy with short levers, vertical bat path) but I think he's a bad athlete and the bar at 1B is soooo high, and I'm traumatized by Vaughn/Tork....

How would you compare Seth Hernandez and Dylan Lesko as prospects at their same age (heading into their draft year)?

Sethy is a better athlete with better physical projection. Lesko's fastball had better shape and movement.

STL looks like they will fill in holes in their pitching staff for 2025 by tapping their farm system.  Any other teams likely to focus on internal promotion over FA acquisition?

TB, COL, OAK, CHC

Feel like there are a lot of near-ready hitters in those spots, kinda think all four clubs could sneak up on us next year
Especially Oakland. Lawrence Butler is gonna have 40 bombs next year.

This is probably more of a pro scouting question but I'd love to hear your opinion on why Tork has struggled so much to meet expectations.

Tight lower body, can't dip and scoop softer stuff.

Did anything about Jordan Westberg's performance last year surprise you? As an Orioles fan, watching him play alot I think he's better than advertised...

I 45'd him thinking he'd get worked up around his hands, he's a Dude.

The Giants yo-yo-ing of Marco Luciano makes me wonder about their confidence in him. Do you think he's a major league regular for them?

No

No

Okay everyone, I'm gonna get working on the A's prospect list now. Look for me on TV tonight and tomorrow, I'm the handsome one. Thanks for coming to the site this week, please consider a sub if you don't already have one.
