I can’t believe people haven’t caught onto the fact that a guy whose username is “iliketacos” is an obvious troll. That’s like peak 2011 middle schooler

Ceddanne with a bomb. Just so you know, he could be promoted to MLB right now and hit .250 with elite defense, and about 20-25 HR's per year. He will eventually be a .275-.300 hitter at the major league level. Number #3 prospect in the system for me. Basically, it's a 3 way tie between him, Bello, and Mayer, with Casas being 4th. Right! No one has ever hit 20 hrs with a low walk total in A ball and AA at age 21 and then not gone on to hit .275-.300 with 20-25 HR's per year in mlb. That's a lock. Please don't mock me.

Tacos are really good, maybe we should listen. I am just speaking facts about talent on the baseball field. We are each entitled to our opinions. BTW, the best tacos are the breakfast variety from Juan in a Million in Austin.

I am not here to troll. Just to educate. I understand the reason why Chris fears me. It's because I have 100% more of a grip on this system than he does and ever will. I just hope that we can continue to chat. I cannot stand moderators. Truth needs to be told.

Our guy is having a good day on the farm guys. One of us thinks the skills would translate now at the big league level. Others think it will take some time. I love the enthusiasm but can we move on guys….and talk about sweet swing Enmanuel Valdez

Yes. In a few years, Rafaela will be one of the top 50 in all of baseball. I called it back in the day when I tried to get Mookie to the Nationals. I scouted for them when Harper, Strasburg, and others came up. Before that, I did some scouting for the Dodgers. I am still close with Matt Kemp and Carlos Santana. I know what I am talking about. Right but you’re saying he can do that right now and be a top 50 guy. Like today. Top 50 guy in baseball. Read my message. I said in a few years. That is a certainty barring an injury.

I feel like I am dealing with kindergartners here. Seriously, the IQ in this forum is half of my 163, at best.

I scouted for them when Harper, Strasburg, and others came up. Before that, I did some scouting for the Dodgers. I am still close with Matt Kemp and Carlos Santana. I know what I am talking about. In fact, this was when I lived in Palm Beach Gardens (glad to have escaped that shitty state) - Kemp, Santana, Hanley Ramirez, Edwin Jackson, James Loney, etc. Lyle Mouton way back in the day was the first guy I officially scouted. He was a super talent that played at LSU, had a brief career for the White Sox, went to Japan, and then faded.. Look.. Saying you scouted kids way back and were always right about them is just preposterous. nobody is, nor was. You, or that particular scout/superfan would be the highest ranking guy in the organization for going around the country and going over both amateur and young, professional talent, it's just impossible to be correct more than say a quarter of the time in the best of cases when most top kids are seen, unless that guy is say a Kirk Gibson, Jim Rice, Alan Trammel type with unlimited potential. I also kind of did what u describe at both Sox and Lakeland Tigers complex for many years. Sox Geniuses Joe Morgan and Rac Slider taught me and were very patient. I also was involved in some of that so called "partying" with several players in younger years, one is now a not to be named coach in the sox system now. Point is.. Don't just point out incorrectly am sure how hit upon every guy as a win.. That's impossible, I know it.. Don't also say u knew every guy would never make it, yet did.. (Dave Stapleton). Watching and scouting kids is hit and miss. nobody is going to have close to a 100% track record.

Does Rafeala start in Worcester next season or does he stay in Portland?
I sure hope he starts in Worcester, but many think he not ready yet.

Who says you have to watch baseball for entertainment.
Sounds like caseytins (or whatever ot was) with a new account.
BTW, a 163 IQ is immeasurable.

A 163 IQ isn’t unmeasurable. There are some with higher scores "Kashmea Wahi, an 11-year-old student from the UK, just earned a place among the world’s intellectual 1 percent by getting a perfect score on her IQ test. The test’s maximum score is 161 for adults and 162 for test-takers below the age of 18. To make her achievement even more impressive, her score of 162 puts her two points higher than the likes of Stephen Hawking and Albert Einstein."www.mentalfloss.com/article/73556/11-year-old-just-earned-highest-iq-score-possibleThat's the basic test. there are other, easier versions where scores are higher.
