    I'd love to be wrong. And not giving up on Fried at all. I just find it hilarious you're all over his nuts while poo poing Folty, who has been the best pitcher on the staff this year.

    Did you admit you were wrong about Alex Wood last year? I wouldn't go around counting wrongs if I were you.

    Folty has not been the best pitcher so I'm not sure why you're saying that. He's been good and better than I thought he'd be. I still think it's fools gold with him until he learns how to command his fastball

    I've been higher on Fried than Folty and I'll be the first to admit Folty has been the better of the two this year. Fried hasn't really been as good as in the past. Even today he got three K's but had trouble with the first two batters.

    The only thing I got wrong about Alex wood was that he didn't get an arm injury and I was far from alone in that thought process.
    I always said that if healthy he was a damn good pitcher

    Well if you predict every prospect will be great, obviously you will get a couple right...

    Okay... after you get tired of them or they get traded you jump off and act like you were never high on them.

    When you make a statement like that I'd expect you to have more than this. I have not been bullish on prospect in the same vein as allard

    The guys that I think will be 'Great' are:

    Newk
    Albies
    Acuna
    Soroka
    Gohara
    Allard
    Fried

    I haven't been over the top on any others

    I like Fried as a super bullpen arm than a rotation starter.

    Hah...like Wilson just want to see more. I like guys with top pedigrees (top picks that perform well at young ages). Half of those guys on my list will just be average producers but I believe all will be long term major leaguers.

    If folty builds on his last start then fried will end up in the pen all year.

    You are literally impossible to reason with. I don't know what world you live in but it isn't reality.
