More Ji Man Choi-ish for me
I wish we'd get some Wander Javier questions

What kept Victor Victor Mesa off the list?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:23
we don't think the ceiling is that high, more in the Almora range for us. Give me Florial's power.

Looking back, was the Quintana trade reasonable for both sides at the time?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:24
yes

To answer you from last week I'm a guy! A guy who loves a good chat slaying and the heaps of prospect coverage you guys deliver!

What are my chances at being a MLB starter? Scouts think there is too much effort in my delivery, but man I throw a lot of strikes.
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:24
Not that much effort, just not fine in terms of command and we think he should lengthen the stride some, but the super easy arm speed is beyond elite

Is Kopech's upside really only that of a No. 3 starter?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:25
yes, we think there are maybe 6-8 #1 starters at any given time, that's it. We're not talking about SP1 for a fantasy team.
Vlad's Dad
1:25
What's the worst case scenario for Vlad Jr?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:25
a pack of hyena's each one of his hands and he only hits .240
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:25
well .240 with walks and 20 HR

So Yordan Alvarez's defense knocks him way down the list, but what's his bat look like to you? More likely to be a great DH, a good one, or an adequate one?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:27
On this DH valuation stuff: look at Nellie. That's a 50 or 55. What are the chances Yordan is that good? That's gotta be the high end of what he can do, Nellie is amazing. https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=dh&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=y&...
1:28
Again, FV is mapped to WAR, so to say Yordan is a 6 he's gotta be a 3+ annual WAR guy on average for his first six seasons, and I just don't think he's that guy
Robert
1:28
Would it be wrong for me to be disappointed in the development of Almanzar, Barley, Rosario and Arias? I thought one of them would make a jump. Think any of them can see a big jump in tools and performance? Not a Franco jump but Pache

too soon to be down on those dudes, they're teens
Turtle Jetpack
1:29
Given that Haniger is probably a current 55 value player, is it realistic to expect he'd return two FV 55 prospects?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:29
He's a 60 or 65 right now and that's more a job for prospect asset values, since a 55 with 1 year of control vs. 6 returns way different stuff in a trade

Has D'Shawn Knowles moved ahead of Trent Deveaux for you guys?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:29
Yes but they're right next to one another on the soon-to-be-released Angels list

hyena's have the strongest bite in terms of pressure per square inch of any mammal, so you it isn't as far fetched as it sounds.
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:30
i'll add this to the Vlad odds outcome so BUST now just says HYENA ATTACK
AJ
1:31
Brandon Marsh struggled at A+ last season. Is his prospect status wearing out?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:31
Nah
DD
1:31
How many 50 FV prospects would a team have to offer for you to trade Vlad Jr?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:32
It would be 4-5 to match Vlad value but I'm sure you'd rather have all that value in one player rather than 4-5. So the actual answer depends on what kind of discount you make for making a multi player package. Maybe 8-10?

Did not realize you are planning on updating this every month or so. That sounds like a ton of work, but much appreciated. Thanks for doing that!
Eric A Longenhagen
1:32
We won't write this many words every month or post a huge article, but this is what the Board is for we can shuffle guys in real time if we want. If I'm on the backfields and Michael Grove is 94-98 with a 6 breaking ball, I'm just gonna move him and write an instagraphs post saying why.
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:32
and you guys are gonna like it
1:33
same for the draft board, too

It would seem appropriate for Machado or Harper to sign during the chat with the most content to discuss this offseason........ nope didn't work.

Ugh now we have to write another 50,000 words
