MLB had him ranked as the 234th prospect. Gave him a 40 overall ranking lol.

A 40?

Looking at the picks today, KC took a lot of easy/below slot signees.

May be gearing up for round 11 and 12 and spending a little extra there.

Mecca mentioned Cameron Johnson. That’s the top guy on the board. Not sure who else is positioned to spend in round 11. Can’t imagine the Nationals are. The Pirates and Reds don’t look to be stashing cash. Oakland might, though.

Baseball uses a 20-80 scouting scale.

80 is generational (think Bryce Harper raw power or Stephen Strasburg velocity)

20 is non existent (Billy Butler speed)

If you’re putting a 40 Future Value on a guy, you’re basically saying you think he’ll be a fringe, AAAA type player at best. Not quite good enough for the show. Maybe a bench player.

Bit disheartening to pop in and get the impression the Royals are still doing dead last Royals things.

Roch Cholowski is still around, assuming that's a sign ability thing.

I hate this franchise

I wish for the home run derby they could get some hot aluminum bats and a pitching machine. Lets see some 500 plus homers.

Mecca 07-10-2023 06:45 PM
Good lord Rutschman is pretty bad ass.

Pablo 07-10-2023 06:46 PM
That was impressive. We will never see a royal do anything like that

Mecca 07-10-2023 06:49 PM
I enjoyed that he did it from both sides.

Kind of like Baltimore won't see a World Series championship either

Ehhh if you buy into top farm systems producing titles they'll have their shot.

Pete Alonso is shattered. He builds his entire season around these.

His pitcher did a good job of painting the outside corner.
