Damn.

[jumbo]

It's going to be hard to find a more prospect laden team in full season ball next year than Peoria. Daytona with possibly Baez, Soler, and Paniagua will be fun as hell too.

Yeah, I've thought about it too. I know we'll do it, but I figure we'll add some more guys this offseason, so January probably seems to be the better time to do it.

Same reason I'm fighting off the temptation to take the time to do a full prospect ranking before trades + fall/winter ball.

[davell]

Just curious, is anyone else thinking of putting Paniagua over all the drafted arms from this year?

I think I will/would. I think Vizcaino might be my #1 pitching prospect though

[davell]

Yeah, Vizcaino is definitely my top rated pitcher and 4th overall.

[Guest]

I wouldn't put Paniagua in front of Johnson.

[davell]

I do wonder where Johnson starts next year. I figure Peoria but hope Daytona.

[pitchcs]

Ben Wells 4 FO/0 GO?!?!?

Ben Wells 4 FO/0 GO?!?!?

I still don't get why he didn't just get Tommy John. At this point, we're basically just waiting for his arm to blow up.

[Guest]

did we ever even hear what the exact injury was? much like the tjs, i seem to remember it all being speculation over forearm/elbow stuff. what was the actual injury?

[El Duderino]

No idea. He could have had a similar injury to Garza for all we know.
