And everyone was running around like O Nooz! Worst draft eva!

[Lintyfresh85]

I wouldn't worry too much about it.

When I drafted Wes Farmer a few years ago, my scout loved him... but OSA didn't.

He wasn't even considered a prospect for most of his minor league career.

Fast forward a few years and he's now up to #12 on the list. So, while I'd love to have a few guys make the list from my draft class, I'm not too worried about it, yet.

[Spear]

Donnie Sherman will get his revenge.

I'm glad our 1st round pick, Pepe Rodriguez made the list since I think we only have one other player out there (Gus Brown - who is now in the BLB).

I think our system is better than what BA ranks it, not going to sweat it.

[liquidcrash]

I'm happy to see Deleon start at #7, that's a bit higher than I would have expected. Also nice to see Gill make it in at 72. It doesn't really matter as I've got plenty of other "top prospects" who will never amount to anything in my system already, so I look forward to adding these guys to the list of busts.

[Pat]

Marv Bowers debuts at 97th on the top 100. Originally a 4th round pick by Los Lunas in '90, Bowers was cut in January and signed by D.C. in March.

[Sully]

We slid our 1st round pick, Zak Gaston, into AA and he's playing very well at this point. He'll likely stay there through the end of the season. Lonnie Bird and Ismael Ortega are both pitching very well for our AAA ballclub, and one of them may get the call with Robby Anderson being lost for the year.
I really like the talent we have in our minors. We're loaded with quality RP prospects, and have a lot of bats that are showing plenty of potential.

[Jistic]

Look at the once mighty Pawtucket system. Now being dragged along the bottom in the mud and weeds. Took only a few seasons to slash and burn what took so long to build just for short term glory. So sad.

Yeah fun to have a great minor league system. Maybe in another 6-7 years could of steered this ship around with a bunch of first baseman. Nevermind the major league team sucked a storm for............ever?

I did what I needed with it. Not here to harvest young boys.

[Carlos]

Not here to harvest young boys.

You're gonna end on that and not throw in an insult to Jistic. Come on!

[funclown]

Lol, Jistic has a thing for young boys so it basically was.

When he builds a farm system he can talk.
