Man I forgot how dominant Sims was in Rome

Just for fun I looked back at our top 20 prospects in 2013 on mlb pipeline and it's a sad looking bunch

Hard to believe Peraza was only #10 given the guys in front of him. But not a very good looking bunch.

Yeah...makes you pause on some of our young guys, although Sims was also very good in AA two years later (last year), though his BBs were high. I think we're a little too rough on him. He's continued to show the ability to strike guys out, just needs to get the walks down.

that top-30 is sad.

Looking through the 10-20 on that list makes it clear how far we've come with our farm.

Yeah, I'm not high on Sims, but I think he has a much better chance to be a solid pitcher than a lot in here. But man, this list is horrible.
