Lmao. It was a joke. Relax. That being said I'm not trying to convince you of jack. I recognize the data..sequence..tunneling, etc. I don't try to do anything but note what I see. Yes..mostly the MINOR LEAGUE organizations.

Sequence. Lmao.

No. You're spot on. I remember the joy his dad had because I was the first one to record his first homerun. I asked his dad at the time what braxton wanted to be. He said the Braves pay for power...but he wanted to be a complete hitter. As I watched him, I saw him perplexed about a strike down...

Spot on 50. And Braxton was considered a good prospect until...he wasn't. Easy to say he wasn't now, but he was all power no contact. But not enough power results to threaten Mike Hessman. This is why scouting is inexact. I say around 5 scouts his first game in Rome and the terms "raw power,"...

Not really. It was after the fall league incident where he hit a walk off if I remember....his teammates jumped on him and he injured his foot. But that was the least of his problems. He had shown that he had power potential which is why he was assigned to the fall league in the first place...

😂😂😂

Lmfao....I just want to know who said it was deadly. That word has caused much consternation 😂😂😂

Is the argument about a shitty splitter or the revamped mechanisms allowing him to get to a pitch that can get people out?

Eh..I don't see semantics. I see people observe the EFFECTIVENESS of a pitch. (Thank you for true data pulls) Elite, crappy or not. A few scouts I know say his pitch (split) is insane. Not that it's otherworldly but that batters can't pick out if he's throwing the split or sinker. On that I'll...

Lmao @Southcack77 ...I'm a visual and results guy. I get what the analysis is, but that's a rabbit hole to me. When he was ineffective he couldn't throw a strike for shyt. Command. That was always his first issue.

Lmao...grrr

Exactly. He's getting whiffs on it for a reason.

You're definitely not wrong. I've got Gil fatigue...but that's my fault. Ambioris is no longer prospect worthy but he can straight pick it at SS. I judge others against him. Gil is not a bad SS. To your point...I'd like to see more of him at SS. He oozes potential, but his bat has come so far...

Eh...there's a love fest going on with Gil..deservedly so I guess, but his actions at short are meh. He's a "get to the ball" I'm supposed to guy. I've never been overly excited about his range, but he's quick and has good twitch. Maybe? But I was OK with him at 3rd. His bat and that speed will...

Sequence or not, that splitter has been his calling card since Florida and before. His problem has never been that pitch. I personally don't care if it rotates and starts spitting on the batter, it is fact that hitters are clueless against it when he is ahead in the count. That has been the...

Anytime Hula. I appreciate it. Agreed. He's done a great job at every level.

Kelenic had a lot pressure on him in Seattle. So much so that when things went wrong, his emotions led to some ugly situations and immature handling of failure. Not uncommon for someone who's been the stuff of legends since little league. "Entitled" may be overstated but there was some of it...

You can say that as it pertains to the Braves propensity to produce rookie of the year candidates, but I'd venture to say the system is no better or worse than some teams prospects that are drooled over. I wouldn't put them top 5 OVERALL though. But as much as I think AA miscalculated some...

He does not sit high 90's although he can touch it. I think he's better when it's sitting 94...his repeatable delivery is refreshing and his 94 FB looks like 97-98 when's got good command of all his pitches.

First of all, we're not going to let Luke Freaking Waddell tear us asunder!:) That said, he's serviceable and a little bit of do everything average maybe better. I'd have promoted him a million times over Luke Williams. That doesn't say much, but Waddell deserves a shot. Carp ain't wrong...
