I disagree. I read somewhere that the three guys they got would all make the Tigers' top 10.
A rebuilding team that already has an albatross of a contract doesn't need Verlander.
I clued a friend in from work that he was going to be activated Thursday. Made no guarantee about playing time but told him if he had room for a flyer...
Some of us like outfielders who can actually run and are don't get nervous when they get within 15 feet of the wall.
Gentry is a deeply flawed player but at least he can play the outfield.
So you are of the opinion that it is more meaningful to be ranked 20 by BA than by BP?
I consider them about the same.
Unless you are talking about something like Bleacher Report.
I'd feel comfortable saying that both were at one time top 20 prospects.

I do agree that Bundy was the most likely to become an "ace" of the three.
I don't think that's accurate. They knew he wouldn't accept the 140K so instead of offering it and forcing him to go back to school they foolishly did him a favor and let him become a free agent.
Maybe he learned his lesson after the situation with the O's? Maybe the Giants asked him to refrain from posting anything until everything was final?
Or maybe he failed another physical.
No, because he would have cost them a draft pick and the slot money. As it is the O's paid the draft pick cost for the Giants while also allowing them to avoid the cost in slot money.
