They need the minors to produce talent, period.
The performance of the touted pitchers (Singer, Lynch, Kowar) is encouraging. There are several less-touted guys finding success, too (Bubic, Zach Haake, Jonathan Bowlan, Tyler Zuber).
The big hitting prospect (Pratto, Matias, Melendez) have not gotten off to good starts. It’s worrisome.
The silver lining is how well Isabel was hitting before his took the ball to the face, and how well guys like Gigliotti and Lopez have performed.
You want to hit on as many early round guys as possible, obviously. If they can get some good guys later, that helps mitigate misses in earthier rounds.
