  1. I am leaning Wright more and more, in addition to predicting they will do that. .
  2. Not sure how it is arbitrary to answer the question asked, about the draft since they were bad.... That was the actual question asked, that I responded to.
  3. I easily take Gordon and Garver for Santana. Easily
  4. I figure Wilk is now Berrios insurance to save the bullpen if Jose struggles.
  5. I think believing 99% of scientists is different than believing this organization when it comes to pitching, but I give.... You all have convinced me to be more understanding? Forgiving? Trusting? Not sure the right word...
  6. Good viewpoint, actually. I will try to read it that way next time. Good idea. Thanks
  7. Want to be really clear, I loved it all but that part. I do enjoy when you go deep like that.
  8. Other than the top, it is the same coaches and scouts, right? A few changes, but not many. Either way, still s "we don't know anything, and have to trust them" argument was made. Look, I thought it was really well written and thought out. I hate appeals to authority.
  9. This makes the decision to start Tepesch and not call up Berrios all the more odd, imo. Life changed that much?
  10. Very well written. Not a fan of the appeal to authority at the end... Since we can't scout these guys, just taking the word of the organization that has utterly failed at pitching trading and developing and drafting lately seems like a lot to ask.
  11. Posting with two outs.... Whichever scout recommended Kintzler deserves credit.
  12. Kintzler's arm is going to fall off if Falvey doesn't give Mollie some options
  13. It is surprisingly hard to find that answer on the interwebs, so far!
  14. that wasn't the question. NO place have I ever said they should turn over the employees w/o first working with most of them. Indeed, I've said that would be wrong and bad leadership. I'm talking about what the OP asked, how confident should we be that this draft will be better, and that this farm system will be much better? And, I've said that we don't have enough data, but having the same scouts should maybe make us nervous.
  15. It's about their best lineup. I'd probably switch Joe and Jorge, but I wouldn't necessarily do that.
  16. Also fair, but is that what people posted? If so, I apologize for missing that nuance. edit: and if it should be better, should we be happy most of the scouts are the same? That was actually the OP's point, I think. Should we trust the FO, if they are relying on mostly the same people, to improve the farm system? And, as I said in my post, we don't have enough data since they've largely just signed old guys and not made a trade for prospects.
  17. Fair. Not sure I completely agree, but fair. We can read the same thing, and see different messages....(something STNG taught us, and I learned in working in internal communications).
  18. Agreed, I don't think they are legit this year, but if Berrios dominates and Hughes isn't like yesterday, it is possible they could be better than most of us thought and be buyers. I'd certainly trade Diaz, for example, for a MLB player under contract for more than 1 year that was BETTER than the player he was replacing.
  19. Isn't that what the OP said, and isn't that what people are arguing against? I must be reading it wrong. Because, that's what he said, it isn't highly ranked, and lacks impact players. BTW, I agree on the MLB team, but that's not the tone of the site right now, and I'm not going to go into every thread and disagree, that's just not nice.
  20. Which part am I exaggerating? I'm reading, as expected, that the farm system is fine. On other threads, I'm reading they need 1-2 RPs (from the minors) and 1 more SP to be legit this year.
  21. Reviews on GoG 2?
  22. I'd go if I was in town for sure.
