Other than Mullins is good

Right now, Trade everyone depending on the return.
I’d trade Means for a top 50 guy and call it a day

Good for him. Really nice to see him have some success

I mean, it depends. My rant about what a poor pick Hobgood was aged like a fine wine.
It was a horrific pick

People will make excuses for Elias for another 10 bad drafts as Martin & Lawlar have great careers with the Blue Jays & Sox. This draft in particular was just plain awful. Last year, at least I saw the logic despite not agreeing with it but what a demoralizing approach when trying to close the gap in organizational talent (largely between the two above mentioned teams).
I see BB Reference has Martin listed as a 3B SS and CF with a .775 OPS in AA. Not too shabby I guess.

It’s disappointing that they didn’t take the high ceiling in Lawler. It’s not like they took some kind of Hobgood though, Cowser has been highly rated all year.

Juiced to all get out
-
That was great
-
Cowser has been predicted for this pick for a long time, not sure why people are mad. I would have taken Lawler, but what do I know?

He’s played all 5 games against the Rome Braves since being in Aberdeen. Yes, he’s 0-15, but it’s pretty clear that the Rome Braves are staying away from as they have walked him 10 times in 5 games.

I’ll go out on a relatively sturdy limb and say he won’t reach the offensive heights of Posey nor the overall, complete and utter greatness of Molina. Basically, what exactly are we expecting from him at this point?
You’re taking Molina over Posey? theoretically...

I wouldn’t mind any of the SS. Rocker would be intriguing. House. Underslots like Bachman, Cowser, Finkle, Einhorn.

Yes they will and that should not matter one little bit.
He wouldn’t be a bad underslot.

Who cares about 0-15?
-
I basically watch these games for Ant-Man, Mountcastle, Trey, and Hays
-
I looked away. Was that a balk?

This falls under the category of "shoulder shrug". While Jannis may be able to eat some innings, I will be surprised if he finds success at the major league level. His knuckleball doesn't miss many bats and when I've watch him, it has a pretty true downwards break each time vs that knuckleball that jumps all over the place. He'll throw his 87-89 MPH fastball to try and keep batters honest, but nothing jumps out to me that he's the next Wakefield.
Saying that, he's a knuckleballer so who knows?
As for Sceroler, he just didn't bring the upside that Wells does and his command was not good enough. I was little surprised he made the team out of spring training but thought why not? If the team is willing to keep running out Harvey as a starter, why not see what Sceroler could do.
Sceroler is one of those high spin rate guys that doesn't haver the command to make the stuff work yet. Maybe it will improve at some point, but he just wasn't worth keeping all year and then a 40-man spot next winter.
Not many will be the next Wakefield. Will be fun to watch the guy even if he gets hammered.

There are so many positives from that game, including the loss

Bring him up. He should be signed to an extension anyway

Why would anyone care who is managing this team? Hyde is perfectly fine, the White Sox should have hired him

Its not the first pick that I am worried about. Its that Elias clearly thought that he had a more complete team than he did. As noted by others in this thread, not have the self awareness to know what your team is can destroy the competitive future of the franchise.
Its like the White Sox trading Tatis Jr for James Shields.
I’m sorry, that is a terrible analogy

Hope they keep Hyde around. The greatest manager in history that hasn’t been invented yet wouldn’t come close to winning with this roster.
