My post was on April 3rd, 2019. In what alternate universe is that "six months ago"???? And Munroe has not been injured. You really nailed that post.

Correct about the Ranch. That's why I said that A.S. didn't know Munroe was even going to be on the team. He chose not to play high school ball the previous two years. No, was the Timber Creek game in the first round? I was on the east coast that night.

And I don’t have an obsession with Munroe. That poster brought up my old post.

Munroe pitched the entire spring season. Six months ago there weren’t any high school games going on. And he pitched more than once against Osceola. If you’re going to argue, get with the program and know your facts.

That's usually a make-up issue, which is extremely difficult to gauge until the lights come on. Often you have the kid whose dad was at every game in high school, and now the kid is playing in Ohio on a single-A team with a bunch of guys who don't speak English, and the first pitch he sees in a...

A lefty who has approached 90 gets a lot of attention. But make no mistake, I’m not sold on DiMare’s ability to spot a baseball player as opposed to spotting talent. And there is a big difference. When I saw Munroe, it didn’t scream “elite”. His change up delivery needs work. His fastball...

You can blame whoever, but I get paid to evaluate the player, and have to know what I'm looking for no matter what else is happening.

Poor assumption.

Yes, he was facing two of the better teams on Ridge's schedule. A.S. purposely played a weaker schedule because he was planning on having a young team that didn't include Munroe. So Munroe got to pitch against a lot of bad teams. When he pitched against a good team, he was an above average high...

Several times, but the Osceola and Lake Wales games weren't encouraging. He won't get to face Haines City and Lake Gibson in the ACC.

What's funny about it? He was an ordinary high school pitcher when I saw him.

That's a strange pickup because we were all wondering who isn't going to make the cut given the number of returners + recruits. And now we add ANOTHER name.

His salary? He can't live on his salary as a minor leaguer. It is ridiculous to think that he is going to invest his entire signing bonus. Minor leaguers make like $1,500 a month and only get paid during the season.

That is absolutely something that is discussed. MLB teams typically know the answer to that question before they draft any kid.

Munroe was blah when I saw him
