Albies as a 20 year old in AAA: .272/.320/.424 (.744 OPS)
TD as a 22 year old in AA: .245/.323/.438 (.760 OPS)

Remember when Albies was freshly coming off a broken elbow and was "struggling" and folks didn't have him in the Top 5 Braves prospects anymore? Remember when folks thought it would be wise to keep TD and trade Albies?

Those people "know baseball" haha.

PS - Albies has a .964 OPS so far in June, he is juuuust fine.

[smootness]

Did anybody ever have Albies outside of their top 5?

I also think it was extremely dumb when people soured even a little on Albies, but you are the king of randomly crafted straw men.

Go back through the Wright thread when everyone started ranking current prospects. There's some real doozies in there from the folks that "just know baseball".

It has never been about Albies < TD debate.. Again you of all people should be able to look at any trade Ozzie talk objectively and say.. is the return better than the trade off. Say you can package Ozzie and Adams for a legit stud 3B plus... Then shift JoGun over to 2nd and TD be utility.. Is that a better OVERALL than Ozzie at 2nd and TD/JoGun at 3rd. I don't know..

The answer is no. Mid-market teams don't trade away Top 10 position prospects. They play their service clock correctly so they control those players for 6.8 years.

That is fine.. I will never disagree.. But I don't ever recall anyone putting Ozzie below TD.. for the record, I never had Ozzie outside my top 1.. if I did, it was a mistake.

I remember very few people having Albies outside the top-5.

Peraza-itis.

[Super]

I don't see why Ozzie can't be a Jose Ramirez/Michael Brantley type. Perhaps with better speed. Guy is 20 years old. That's wild.
