Arizona seems a little high and LA seems a little low... Miami is the story here by far, right? The disconnect between the talent that's come through that organization and the quality of the teams they've fielded is astounding.

The disconnect between the talent that's come through that organization and the quality of the teams they've fielded is astounding. It's called strip-mining. They've been really good at it. They did have some misfortune with Fernandez, but they've also been unwilling to properly value the talent that did come through the system. |

It’s about time we get some love. . The top 100 prospects list is another asset to a team. Show me another team like the Sox thatgraduate there’s and get a major payoff in the end. On top of it trading away the ones that didn’t really hurt you.
What’s the Padres have for example top 6 or 7 in the top 100 .are they gonna graduate and help the team? That’s what kills me about Baseball America. Also they kiss the Yankees ass a little to much for my taste.
Washington got the payoff this year. I’ll stick with what the Sox are doing , I excited about adding Bloom to the mix. I hope the pitching progresses further along. I never been so pumped about our pitching.

Cool idea, I remember at the time (2014-2015) Cubs > Red Sox pretty universally.

They did have some misfortune with Fernandez, but they've also been unwilling to properly value the talent that did come through the system. Have they even done that, though? Look at what the As have done without really spending more and while developing far less talent. Plus, they've done a far better job of tricking all us baseball nerds into actually believing that a team from the Bay Area is a scrappy small market underdog. You're not wrong about the strip mining thing, it's just that even under those circumstances they should have put together a couple decent teams. |
