Trying to square this one up:
They have Angel's SS prospect Zach Neto, who is 21 years old and was drafted 13th overall in '22, worth $22.4 million.
They have M's SS prospect Cole Young, who is 19 years old and was drafted 21st overall in '22, worth $8.7 million.
Everything I've ever been told about organizations and prospects is that they want players in their system as early as possible so they can mold them with their player development. What is it that separates these two by $14 million in value?
Then you have Harry Ford who was drafted 12th overall in '21... he's hung an .878 OPS across his age 18/19 seasons. MLBTV gives him a value of just $11 million. Jasson Dominguez for the Yankees has an .804 OPS across his age 18/19 seasons playing at the exact same level as Ford, but is worth $26.5 million?
Not sure why they're so down on M's prospects...
