Thanks for all the great content over the All Star break, Roger. It sure wasn’t a break for you!
Your analysis last week of how Heliot Ramos has maximized his elite power helped explain a great (and at times unexpected) PD success story. Clearly the org has very few 45 FV or better hitters. But I imagine there are some guys with impressive data points that suggest a breakthrough to become a big league regular is at least plausible. Would you give a rundown of those players and their encouraging metrics — and then say what they need to improve upon to ‘put it all together’ and whether you see progress on that front?
What happened to Reggie Crawford? He was pitching relatively consistently and then suddenly stopped around a month ago. I haven’t heard any injury updates since. Thanks for the coverage!
