Yes those are my three as well. I haven't been very impressed with our amphibious pitcher so far.desbcoach wrote: ↑Wed Jul 02, 2025 2:40 pmWe have 9 players in top 100. IMO Montas, Sloan, Arroyo should be untouchable maybe Emerson. We don’t have a LH power bat in system and Montas seems close, Sloan looks like an Ace in making and Arroyo just gets it done everywhere. That leaves 5-6 top 100 available
Me neither, his 3 MPH underwater fastball looks way too hittable.D-train wrote: ↑Wed Jul 02, 2025 3:45 pmYes those are my three as well.

Not saying hoard prospects but evaluate one you think will help you most verse trade them all. Astros were great at keeping what they thought were important and trading the rest for pieces they neededMichael K. wrote: ↑Wed Jul 02, 2025 4:48 pmI guess I don't get this. Was it some kind of Herculean effort to build the Farm back up? Cal has been a Star, and Julio is serviceable....but what home grown position players do you guys watch play in a Mariner uniform and think "thank God we didn't trade that guy for a short term rental and a playoff run". Cal and Julio were up by the time we were supposed to be done rebuilding. No one since has made an impact and we are still how many years from our last Division title?
One playoff appearance in a decade and a half, and we are still hoping they hold on to prospects because one day they might lead us to the last WC spot and a few road playoff games? I don't get it. If the impact bat they can add is good enough, trade anyone that isn't currently on the Major League roster, and even some that are.
And this is the exact same stuff we were fed when the names were Justin Smoak, Dustin Ackley, Jesus Montero, etc.Michael K. wrote: ↑Wed Jul 02, 2025 4:48 pmI guess I don't get this.
