Yep, I caught that

Already fixed (I had changed the name and forgot the age).

He’s a pretty old 19 too…he’s be 20 in August.

On the pitchers

I have Joe Musgrove highest among the remaining guys. I’m reluctant to put Stilson ahead of him until I hear that Stilson’s stuff is largely intact post-injury.

Agreed on Stilson

I actually want to hear that he definitely needs surgery…I know Andrews thought he wouldn’t need it, but last I heard he still wasn’t fully recovered.

On Musgrove…I mean, I can’t argue with that. In my mind, it’s basically going off bonuses and draft placement at this point (Musgrove had a few outings)…I’d put Osuna right there alongside him, and Taylor slightly behind.

Anyone have a scouting report on Comer handy?

This is the point in the pitching prospect rankings where they really get artificial, There’s really not much separating any of these giant projectable high school righties is there? Musgrove, Scrabble 3.0, Comer, Robson, etc.

Looks promising

We’ll see if each of these guys ends up with a Syndergaard season or a Sanchez season.

Our poll for the next pitching prospect is tied. I didn’t vote, because as I alluded to in a comment above, I’m basically split on Osuna and Musgrove, and I forgot to look a little more into them and put one ahead of the other. After looking at it more in depth, I’m going to give Musgrove the ever so slight nod, by since it’s so close, and we don’t need another pitcher right now, we’ll run these two off in a poll on the #19 overall
