I'm not sure how they get there, but I believe that this is a better team with Westburg at 3B and ideally Holliday at 2B rather than Mayo at 3B and Westburg at 2B. Actually, any combo will be better with Westburg at third. -
I’ll be happy to eat my words if a list comes out with us having 3 in the top 5. I’d bet strongly against it. -
Guys like Wynns who’ve had some major league experience make decent money even when in the minors. Still, it must be disappointing to be hopping from team to team and getting a few major league games here and there but not really sticking. Not an easy life.

Nope. Believe it or not I would be much happier to have the Os win the WS and I never bet them at all than for me to have bet them to win the division for example, they do so, and not get out of round 1 of the playoffs. Sure I make money. But so what? Money is just money. Winning a WS is pure joy. I just made the point about me betting to show that I am not afraid to be critical and a realist even though I did put my money where my mouth is. -

Show me an objective source that has reranked the prospects since their initial lists? The draft is July 16th. Usually they do a reranking a few weeks after that. We could have 3 in the top 5. We have 3 in the top 18 currently. It's not so far fetched. -

Most players in the NFL and NBA are elite/explosive athletes just look at their measurables/testing numbers. As a matter of fact, when someone succeeds in the NBA in particular without being one it is an outlier (Luka Doncic). In football even the non-uber athletes (Offensive guards, defensive tackles, most tight ends are still fantastic athletes) Ever seen Aaron Donald up close Justin Madubuike? However, baseball is a different game. Some baseball players are elite athletes. But many are not as it is not a requirement to be great at the sport, since it is mostly a hand-eye coordination sport. Deion Sanders was a great athlete and an okay baseball player. Michael Jordan sucked at baseball. But again, I have to assume that you know this and are just typing words for the sake of it. Do you think Tony Gwynn could beat any of those people in any kind of athletic contest? But yet he was miles and away a better baseball player. -

That's a point I was trying to make earlier in the season, but you did a much better job than I. Holliday could turn out to be a great player, but still not be anywhere near what Henderson is. Once he gets his chance again hopefully he's ready because those 2 together would make an excellent combo.
