He shows an above changeup, plus breaker and hits 100, all without the long levers issues of Manning, so there's a better chance that Brusdar! could become an ace. But Brusdar! also has some command issues.

Who has the better offensive profile of Josh Naylor, Franmal Reyes and Hunter Renfroe?

Gimme Naylor

Wade

Get a chance to see CJ Alexander yet? Still hitting at high A

Answered last week, but still getting this question. Was stiff at 3B, 50 arm, plus raw and some feel for contact. Still think it's a power over hit 1B, likely platoon, but still a good find for the round/bonus.

Does Wander Franco's frame hold him back from future power? He's a good bit smaller than all the recent extreme prospects (Vlad, Acuna, Soto)

Kiley McDaniel

1:12

He's got thunder in those hands, doesn't need to be big when you got that, son

Nick Madrigal is really hitting the hell out of the ball.

The bandwagon is filling up fast but luckily Nick doesn't take up much room

Any names you expect to see in AFL?

Kiley McDaniel

There was a question last week or the week before with a bunch of good suggestions that all made sense. Forrest Whitley seems like an easy one that comes to mind. Could see Vlad or Tatis as the "Harper/Trout trying to create more endurance for a close-to-MLB elite prospect" type. Basically any top prospect that had a half season or less or reps this year and is now fully healthy.

Antonio Cabello's season ended due to a shoulder injury, but he put up big numbers prior to getting hurt. GCL aside, should I be excited?

Kiley McDaniel

1:15

Yeah, the tools are huge

Odds Royce Lewis is a SS or CF in MN?

Kiley McDaniel

1:15

I lean CF, 65/35

Can you (or someone else) link the player profile when a player is mentioned in chat? I know Eric has done it lately. Its really helpful to go on a players profile and pull up a recent chat where they were mentioned

Kiley McDaniel

1:18

I've been doing it lately, if there's been a substantive discussion beyond just this guy over that guy

Angelus Novus

1:18

David Laurila just posted a nice piece on Zac Lowther. Do you see him as a back-end starter or more of a LOOGY?

Kiley McDaniel

1:18

A bit of a smoke and mirrors type, but some of those guys keep it up forever and deception is hard to quantify soooo (shrug emoji)

Did you know, if you lined up every baseball used in a given MLB season, it would stretch a quarter of the way to the moon? And if you did that with every blood vessel in your body, you would die.

Oh, we're here already

How does it feel to be entertaining a bunch of people while they’re pooping at work?
