I think Tony’s piece is a fair critique. I also think their methods are a work in progress and they will continue to learn and hone their drafting and development process. There are some college guys (EBJ, Fabian, Etzel, Horvath) in the system that could still “pop” and be big time prospects but time will tell. Norby, Stowers, & Ortiz may turn out to be a solid group of post-first rounders as well.
I believe this draft will be very telling…will they change up and go for more pitchers? Or will they continue with the bat approach?
