Pitching prospects are a crapshoot...and even more so in today's game. You don’t see guys last long as studs...it’s more rare than position players.
Miller was fools gold from the start compared to our other prospects and it has proven true after he left us.
The talent in the game has accelerated greatly in the past decade. The arms we have now on those 2004/2005 teams would have blown away teams in the postseason. Wacha isn’t worse than he was in 2013, it just isn’t novel anymore. Look at the daunted Mets staff of 2015.
