OT: Pirate Fans....the Prospects Thread.

His problem is the same as it was when he was in the minors. As the scouts said about him then, he doesn't have any pitches that are going to get left handers out on a consistent basis. Unless and until he develops a pitch that can get lefties out he is never going to be more than he is now, which is a back end of the rotation starter at best.

Which is why I'm absolutely shocked He hasn't developed a better feel for his change up. Would help neutralize Lefties and would be a nice with the Mid 90s fastball and sinker

You used numbers that were obviously wrong to try to make a point. You don't have to average five different sites to get the correct number, all you need to do is to look at one that accounts for all the money the Pirates spent on players and not just how much the players who were on the roster at the end of the season would have cost had the been on the roster the whole season and no other players had been on the roster all year.

I mean seriously, you pay enough attention to the Pirates to have opinions on their prospect and what they should and shouldn't be doing, but at the same time you pay so little attention that when you saw that $80 million figure from last season your first thought wasn't "damn, that seems way too low"? And if you are paying so little attention to the payroll that it wasn't obvious right from the start that that number was way off then why even bother to comment on it in the first place?

Counting Cards Rainman.

And I just bet another poster $5 that you would chime in. Thank you. Predictable.

Hey, it's always funny to see simple errors not acknowledged like an adult - but defended by attacking those who pointed it out.

And it is always great seeing you right there ready to pile on as usual. Never letting anything go. By the way I'd like to thank you for your concerns for my posts and their accuracy. It helps me be better and no doubt it makes you feel better about yourself.

I'm not concerned I expect errors and logical inconsistencies
