Didn't hear much about Wanger in the fall. Is he that polished that he didn't need a lot of PT, injured, or just a known commodity who doesn't need much to be said?

High heat - nice! He looks like he has a frame similar to Sale's (?).

We're revealing our ages as I remember him, but didn't realize he had that skill.

Adam Frank throws left and right handed?! I don't think I have ever heard of that for a position player.

Interesting on Federman. He probably would be better as a starter since he often takes a few hitters to settle down in relief (and then it can be too late, especially when he enters in high leverage situations). We need McFarlane - hope he's healthy.

If two of the following four: Smith, McFarlane, Mederos or Rosario, make a quick transition to weekend starters, then we should host a regional at least. And we could contend for a national seed if that happens, with our every-day lineup and depth on offense. Unfortunately, the starters are...

That's unfortunate (PG says he has a 95 MPH fastball, and is in fact committed to Fl SW St). But hopefully it means he didn't see himself getting enough innings with the other arms around him.

We've always known he can recruit, and he appears to be setting the expectations bar high. Now we want to see him develop these kids, improve the fundamentals and translate it into trips to Omaha on a frequent basis.

Tuero is a pure hitter and his defense was showing promise. Maybe the newcomers are that good, but this transfer will hurt our depth IMO.

If McFarlane gets stronger over the off-season, I think he gets a shot at one of the weekend spots.

BVB posted some classy tweets complete w impressive videos on his drafted teammates.

With the relaxed roster cap, I could see Gino going the path of the Rays and use a variation of the "opener" w all the quality arms we should have available (w the added benefit of being able to promise a lot of pitchers PT). Hopefully, a lot of our kids are good students and can get some...

While I agree with a lot of your points, if BVB does return, we could be fine if someone among AMac, Keysor, Gates, JC transfer, etc. steps up as a quality #2 starter. As talented as Cecconi is, he was only 7 - 5 in his career here w an ERA above 4.00. I wish him all the best, but as far as...

By "all" I assume you mean position players, because McMahon and Cecconi are both gone unless these projections are way off - slot money for late first round is $2MM+.

Going to be crazy. I suspect we'll see a few of the highly regarded but undrafted HS recruits go the JC route. What's the story on Carmona - wasn't he one of our key targets last year? Hate to lose a LHP with potential, even considering the surplus of arms among the recruits (but all RHs).
