Kid is a fucking stud. Exceeded expectations, PLUS SOME, in his first year.
Better trade him now for prospects, he’s going to want too much by the time he hits arb and we need to start looking toward 2035.
Still can’t get over his frame. Being drafted at 18 while being 6’4 and 225 lbs is pretty insane.
Probably one of the reasons he’s developing so well. He doesn’t have to grow into his body like a lot of prospects his age do.
Crazy thing. 225 is still pretty lean at that height.
If you ignore the Wander Franco part of the comparisons to players that achieved the same jump, Trout and Bregman is exciting company.
He’s going to special just hope we spend the money
I’m rock hard
Edward Florentino should be in the top 100 too, he’s been amazing this year
Justin Horowitz has run our last two drafts. Jettison Ben but keep the Justin.
K Griffi doing K Griffi thangs
Crazy to think about the prospect package they’ll get for him when he enters arbitration

It’s not so much the 6’4, it’s the 220lbs that means he probably can’t stick at SS. But shit, get the years you can out of him there. Sounds like he’s excelling at playing there, so no reason to move him off. Unless by the time he gets called up we’re on another manager who changes your position daily.
It doesn’t matter. We have Skenes, and a losing team around him and he’s a complete prodigy. What makes this guy any different? It’ll be the same thing. The Pirates are just a farm team for the league. I fantasize the best, but know our reality.

So he’s the shortstop of the future correct?
