Do y'all think Crow-Armstrong still deserves to be the #1 prospect? Except for speed, he hasn't shown much this spring.

Who are you going to move over him? Horton? What has Horton shown you this spring?

Nothing that's happened this spring should change your evaluation of these guys. PCA isn't ready for the majors yet, but everything we thought about him last fall is still true.

I dont think spring matters much but it is a bit concerning how bad he's looked in the field and at the plate against major league talent so far. But it's a minuscule sample size.

I have Cade Horton as my number 1. This is not something I take lightly, and has nothing to do with this spring...I was considering the move in July. I have him there because I think he's a better bet to hit the 90-95% outcome than PCA is, as I think Cade Horton has made more improvement on his weaknesses over the last year (pitch mix) than PCA has (approach). But it's more like...1a and 1b, than 1 and 2, if that makes sense. Both are top-30 MLB prospects and the line between them is razor thin. If you're Team PCA over Team Horton, I'd have little reason to think you're wrong, too.

It’s Jordan Wicks, but nothing can be more boring to the prospect meta than a healthy, strike throwing pitcher with years of relatively high volume and high quality work. 

Stop talking him up, you've had a tough go of prospecturbation over the last year or two. Some of us want him to succeed!
