Their BP or Fangraphs writers had hopes of Gorman and Hankins. The Singer pick was praised for the value (except by the BP guy) but many of the more in-the-know writers preferred boom-or-bust prep kids. Their system has literally no pitching talent, so it makes sense. But, on the flip side, they've also lost faith in the organization's ability to develop any pitchers. So, they wanted higher ceiling guys if they went the pitching route (outside of Singer).
