Knock on Ventura is control but he has dominant stuff

You don't even know his name, yet you're trying to give us scouting reports?

It's Yordano. I know that and I'm not even a Royals fan.

In all seriousness I like the Braves because you guys are a model for the Royals on how to win through the draft. I just wish the Royals could have the same payroll as the Braves

Kimbrel did not flame out as a starter. He's never started a game at any professional level. He was drafted and developed to be a reliever.

"According to scouts and writers on twitter, Ventura looked absolutely incredible today. A scout said he saw a lot of 101's on his radar gun, and he threw one fastball at 102. Curve also reportedly was really good."


Yeah, and Uggla is hitting .318. Who gives a shite, it's Spring Training.

First let me just say everyone in MLB excluding the Braves knew Uggla sucked before he left the Marlins, and second it's a lot harder for a pitcher to be successful in spring training than a hitter. Pitchers have everything working against them at least in Arizona they do. It's very hot with winds gusting out to all fields, and the thin air makes it easier for hitters to hit better. So if a pitcher is performing well in spring training it is usually legitimate.

You've got it all backwards. Pitchers are typically ahead of hitters in spring training and going into the first month of the season.

Sssshhh, he's actually believing the shite he's spewing. Let's just let him have his spring training. It's going to be a rough season for them anyways.

Not reading the entire thread but has anyone pointed out that the Royals don't get the Braves pick?
