Imo, it is a pipe dream that Berrios signs an extension. It is getting rare for elite talents to do so. As for pitching, waiting for the deadline is a bit of a self fulfilling prophecy.... They aren't likely to be really good, and need more pitching....

Doesn't matter who their choices were, this is what they accomplished so far.... Usually you judge people on actions, not what they wanted to do, but didn't
