    I know we'll eventually have to make a big trade to put the team over the top but i shudder at trading Wright, then seeing him turn into a Glasnow type on another team.

    The eye test (everyone rolls eyes) for me said that Wright's stuff was as top end as we have coming up. He was missing with the location badly, but the swing and miss was real.

    Anderson’s fastball was legit. 95 with what looked to be movement. I was not impressed with his curve. He looked like he had a different delivery and it was very loopy. All eye test. Like most I am intrigued how he does as he moves up

    The 7' of extension tidbit we got from the futures game is almost certainly a big part of the reason his 95 mph FA is playing up.

    Batters in AAA typically don't have MLB-caliber plate discipline, so his K rate could be a product of aggressive hitters getting beat by a good FA and a below average but usable CU.

    Like everyone else with at least 2 brain cells to rub together, I'm eager to see actual statcast data on Anderson more so than any other pitcher currently in the system.

    Anderson hasn’t even made it to AA. So I am sure a good fastball plays well there. It will be interesting to see if the numbers drop even going to just AAA.

    Fangraphs updated their rankings

    #15 Pache
    #26 Waters
    #42 Anderson
    #44 Wright
    #49 Contreras
    #68 Wilson

    No one else in the top 125.

    Moved up:
    Drew Waters, CF, Braves (50 FV to 55 FV):
    Waters continues to rake as a young-for-the-league, up-the-middle prospect, and while the .459 BABIP isn’t sustainable, scouts are split on him vs. Cristian Pache long-term, so they’re a little closer on our list now.

    Moved down:
    Luiz Gohara, LHP, Braves (50 FV to 45+ FV):
    The Braves were conservative with Soroka’s shoulder issues and he’s come out the other side looking great, but Gohara has been down for longer than we initially expected, so he had to drop a bit until we find out the extent of the injury.

    Langeliers is a 45 and Shewmake is a 40. Only 6 draftees are currently in their top 100.

    FG is not like pipeline, who rate about 60 guys as 50s in every draft, thus making the ratings completely useless.

    They give out 50s to anyone who can prove they can walk in a straight line.

    To me, that's the appropriate way to do it. I don't think you can get enough context on a guy until he's played a sufficient number of games.
