    I still think Vitters ~ Olt.
  2. The-Kris-Bryant
    You haven't made a point that justifies the condescension you're using. How so? Not comparing Rizzo to anyone else here. I'm just saying if Rizzo doesn't develop our plans will be changed.......
  3. The-Kris-Bryant
    Oh Truffle.... If Rizzo continues to play like he does now, he won't be our starting 1B through that contract.
  4. The-Kris-Bryant
    So in 2017, who's on first? Vogelbach or Rizzo?

  6. The-Kris-Bryant
    details on said K? There were at least three strikes involved.
  7. The-Kris-Bryant
    SL isn't hitters
  8. The-Kris-Bryant
    Not that it'd be smart, but it'd be cool to see someone drop a Hi A team for an extra AA team.
  9. The-Kris-Bryant
    Payano please.
  10. The-Kris-Bryant
    Obligatory sample size comment. Of course I'd rather have the improvement than not.
  11. The-Kris-Bryant
    It's almost a lock for us to be a top 1-2 farm system after 2014 too because all of our guys are far away. Probably as close a lock as possible for a top 10 farm after 2015 too.
  12. The-Kris-Bryant
    Good riddance
  13. The-Kris-Bryant
    Is he really that much more of a prospect than Vitters anymore? Reality and facts are a bitch but viewtopic.php?f=8&t=62237
  14. The-Kris-Bryant
    You sure as hell can make a good case for him
  15. The-Kris-Bryant
    so after some more thinking, new prospects, I'll go with: 1. Albert Almora, CF 2. Javier Baez, SS 3. Kris Bryant, 3B 4. Mike Olt, 3B 5. Arismendy Alcantara, 2B 6. Jorge Soler, RF --- Top 100 --- 7. Pierce Johnson, RHP 8. CJ Edwards, RHP 9. Paul Blackburn, RHP 10. Dan Vogelbach, 1B 11. Arodys Vizcaino, RHP 12. Alberto Cabrera, RHP 13. Corey Black, RHP 14. Jeimer Candelario, 3B 15. Matt Szczur, CF 16. Junior Lake, IF 17. Eloy Jimenez, OF -- if he signs as expected 18. Dillon Maples, RHP 19. Juan Carlos Paniagua, RHP 20. Duane Underwood, RHP

    We literally just saw this happen less than 3 months ago. Baez currently has a .284 OBP and a .918 OPS, which is just the most preposterous thing I've ever heard of. Both his OBP and SLG will normalize as he continues to progress, and more pitchers get the fear of God put into them. Let's wait for Baez to 1) reach 100 PA at AA and 2) stop hitting HR at a 70 HR pace at AA before we go too crazy about nitpicking his plate discipline. Especially when we saw this same story play out in Daytona and Baez can't legally drink until Christmastime. I'm not nitpicking nor am I saying he's not a fantastic prospect with a high ceiling but he has his risks and there's good reason to be concerned enough about him not to have him among the top 10 prospects. If your reason for leaving Baez out of the Top 10 is that his BB/K numbers aren't good enough in his 85 AA PAs that he has at age 20 while on pace to hit 70 HR over 600 PA, then that reason is....not good. There's also the other 676 professional plate appearances pointing to the same conclusion.
  17. The-Kris-Bryant
    Because he has as many home runs as walks He's also a shortstop who may hit 40HR. The rarity of that is just ridiculous. Unfortunately he's a SS who may not get on base 30% of the time.

The rarity of that, unfortunately is not ridiculous. A lot of very good hitters start getting pitched around eventually, and that's where the walks come from. Alfonso Soriano says Hi.

  21. The-Kris-Bryant
    And a promotion
  22. The-Kris-Bryant
    Is Mark Buehrle even breaking 85 mph these days?
  23. The-Kris-Bryant
    Jason Parks is worse than Keith Law when Law was at BP.
  24. The-Kris-Bryant
    He's a 5'11" SP with a 100 mph fastball.
  25. The-Kris-Bryant
    Corey Black would be awesome.
