SilverBullet Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 What's the name of the guy the Blue Jays drafted? For some reason MLB Network is only mentioning what type of car he drives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't like the NFL, none of these guys would have immediately been up and helping the big league team. "Travesty" is such a silly exaggeration here. Lol you’re right. I’m just being overly reactionary. Still extremely frustrated though. Hopefully I’m wrong and our scouting department knows what they are doing.

Best case, another ace! I just hope the Marlins get the max out of Meyer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trusting the scouting department for now - they've still got two and a half more years on my clock (I'll probably extend that a little due to the complications of this year). If I don't see what I like after five years in terms of the big league club's success, then I'll really start to criticize them. Let's give them some time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Man Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I'll add to this with the fact that, where did we get Jose Fernandez, or Yelich, or Stanton? Elite players don't necessarily come from the top rated prospects before the draft. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hill was still there of course, but Svilhik is part of the Jeter hires. Garrett was a good pick still, I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of that group was replaced after the last draft. This year is the first of the newer scouting department. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverBullet Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Nobody answered my question about the caps, how come every draft pick has the right cap readily available? Do they get a shipment of 30 caps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishFan95 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 If he stays as a starter, I can see Meyer ending up as a better pitcher than Lacy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
