Me too. I think, when you're looking at a high school level amateur prospect the projection is just incredibly difficult. In Jarred's case, I don't think the evaluation was wrong exactly, but he was probably a little more maxed out on his talent level given the resources that his parents had available to put into his development. Frankly, I think that was a parenting mistake but whatever.

Thats what you're getting at isn't it? His parents couldn't send him to Florida.The only knock on Kelenic leading up to the 2018 draft was his Wisconsin roots

No, the Wisconsin stuff is nonsense. The mistake I think was encouraging (and probably actively pushing) him to focus so narrowly on baseball.Donn Beach wrote: ↑Tue Jun 25, 2024 12:46 amInteresting, there is this...GL_Storm wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2024 11:40 pmMe too.

Re: Former Mariners tracker
Brewers get Dallas Keuchel from us for cash considerations.

Which is funny cause I sort of totally forget we had inked him to a minor league deal.

What's funny is we do this the day after we have a Pitcher that seems to always be injured leave the game with an injury.Big_Maple wrote: ↑Tue Jun 25, 2024 10:41 pmBrewers get Dallas Keuchel from us for cash considerations.

Re: Former Mariners tracker
In 4 innings of work so far, Keuchel has given up 8 hits and 5 earned runs. Not exactly Cy Young stats.
