I mean Tocci went from a young kids with tools to a good player in AA. It happens. Although with the recent success of them taking the best college hitter in the draft probably isn't a bad move. Yeah I'm not overly worried about him. Looks like 3B is the only spot in the lineup where there's a major hole, assuming Crawford can fill in for Galvis. Would be nice if Pete would just let Alfaro be the starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any college 3b of any interest at the top of the draft next year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and it's inevitable that he's moved to third. He's still only 20 and looks like he has a legit shot of making it to Reading at the start of next season.

Maybe a #2 He;s been the best pitcher in all of baseball the past 8 weeks or so. I think the Ace label takes more than 8 weeks to acquire....but yes, he's on his way.

Is he still a legit prospect? First round pick still in A ball a couple years later and not dominating? Seems questionable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyguy1609 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I was laughting when Karabell went on the rant about the 2 guys. I hope Mickey can turn it around and yes he is young but how many more top picks are we going spend on an OF. I think Nola is on his way to being an ACE, id consider him in the 4th tier. tier 1(elite) tier 2(near elite) 3(proven vets tier 4(young and coming up) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really need to work on my patience with prospects sometimes. High Schoolers take at least 4 years to be relevant, College guys can move pretty damn quick through the system (See: Kingery) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
