I think I would draft pitchers in the early rounds always, no matter what.

**** it.

If enough develop then flip some for hitters if you need to.

It's still all about pitching. We don't have enough.

until we're loaded with plus pitching prospects in the minors there's just no point.

I have this terrible theory, that you should draft ALL college arms, always in the top 10 rounds unless there is a generational talent somewhere. Those have the lowest potential of bust. And then you just flip those for bats later. Rinse and repeat. I'm sure Duncan will be able to come along and prove me wrong but I'd like to see somebody try that.

It’s all about what you can do with what you draft.

The Royals have done best with college arm scouting of late, but you have to have some position players in the system.

I wouldn’t go that extreme but don’t have a problem with prioritizing college arms in the early rounds.

Re: how long a position player needs to be i. The system before you really think about them, I get where you’re coming from but don’t think that’s a realistic way of looking at it. But yeah, of guys who have been in the system for 1+ years, Hicklen is probably the second best prospect. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. He’s been pretty productive, especially for Wilmington.

I’m late to the party, but this start made me think that we currently have a rotation with Montgomery and Duffy and how excited 2011 me would have been about that.

Soler is crushing the **** out of the ball. I had a big long post id been trying to write about but accidentally deleted the ****ing page. He's been on a tear the last month and has just about as many walks as strikeouts 19 BBs to 22 SOs. Since July he's had 24 BBs to 27 SO's and from April to June he had 25 BBs to 104 SOs. His OBP was sub .300 in March, April, May. Finally in June he got above a .300 OBP for the month, but in July he had a .409 OBP and .472 for this month.

If you break his stuff down by half's

1st half (374 PA) - .240 BA/.307 OBP/.497 SLG/.805 OPS

28 BBs/108 SOs/23 HRs/

So a HR ever 16 PAs

2nd Half (119 PA) - .305 BA/.432 OBP/.674 SLG/1.106 OPS

21 BBs/23 SOs/10 HRs

So a HR every 12 PAs.


This doesnt include today's stats. My God he's killing it. I'll give DM credit for this one.

Soler has been unbelievable to watch. The only thing I can compare it to is seeing baseball tonight highlights of a hitter on fire and imagining what it would be like to have a player who could legitimately homer in any at-bat.

It's been fun.

It’s a crime against humanity he wasn’t added to the HR contest at the All-Star game. He might not have hit the most, but he would’ve launched some jaw-dropping ICBMs.

He's been my favorite Royal batter to watch for a couple of months now, because of how he handles his plate appearances. He's been lethal this year when he's put the ball in play on even counts, slugging 0.812, including 10 total bases in 3 at bats today. Prior to this year, he slugged 0.464 when he put the ball in play on even counts. (These numbers are based on the Splits data at baseball-reference.com https://www.baseball-reference.com/p...i?id=solerjo01, which I believe is complete up to last night's games, plus my own calculations based on today's data from mlb.com.)
