I admit to not liking the headline or article. Nothing went wrong. The vast majority of guys don't make the majors. Winder was a mid round pick, nothing went wrong. Severino was signed as a HS aged KID, nothing went wrong. But I get that writing it differently isn't click bait.....
Not sure what KC was thinking, they stunk. But MN and SD were trying to win (not that I like the decisions all the way, but no one apparently thought Rooker was good, or he wouldn't have been in Oakland).
back end starters are on teh waiver wire?
Also, "likely" and "maybe he can be a lot more" are very different things. It is extremely likely that most of the guys that are the 6-10th best prospect on most teams never see the majors.
