The Mayer Kid was in the Mix to go #1 Overall drawing comparisons to Corey Seager and Chipper Jones at the same age but The Pirates went and took a College Catcher .

Baseball America organizational rankings. Bloom has done a good job rebuilding the farm system over the last 2 years, was 30th 2 years ago.

With some of the big bats moving off the board, Castellanos makes a lot of sense in Boston. Could play mostly OF in 2021 and more DH in 2023 forward if JDM leaves.
Story is also an option.

i'm just glad we did something I still think they add a bit of pitching. Wacha Whitlock and Houck can start or relieve so it could be either. They will also add an OF...Conforto is still out there, Pham could be an option. Right now they have Verdugo Hernandez Duran and Bradley...maybe a guy to push Duran to AAA to start.

looks like i might not be watching much baseball this year what a dreadfully boring team Bloom put together this year
way to small market what should be a top 2-3 market in sports

Losing Renfroe(who has a .697 OPS in Mil) shouldn't transform a top 5 offense into a bottom 5 offense. Guys like Dalbec Devers Hernandez Verdugo Vazquez all look lost at the plate.

This team looks a lot like people expected LAST year. Nobody really expected them to do too much last year and they did better than most thought.
But it is still early. Pitching has potential to get a lot better and lots of cold bats still.

10.5 games out already
not sure what potential you are seeing in the pitching
the potential is there for the bats to come alive but they did downgrade there
i agree they look like what last years team was expected to be
