Sometimes things don't look like how you would think they would look like when a guy scores from second on a single...

Blaze now .304/.376/.739 for August and even without that, how is it that a 20 year old who raked in high A en route to an AA promotion is all the way down to #19 on the Sox Prospect list?

God, if he could have something even resembling a league average OBP he would be a terror. Sadly, I'm just not sure that's in the cards.

He's a bit 1-dimensional & mostly seems to do all his damage against breaking balls, but he should 100% be ahead of Walter, & probably should be ahead of Hickey, Enmanuel & I think I have him ahead of Meidroth.

Not sure which is more problematic... the OBP or the defense.

I have been "enjoying" all the conversations about how we need to trade him ASAP on the main board.

I know, right? “He can’t hit pitching above A+, we have to trade him now!!!” Like how the fuck do you know that? His batted ball profiles are fucking obscene for a barely 19 year old at that level.

 

[nighthob]

Yup. It can be hit hard, but you don't slap & pull at the same time.

Bob Kraft’s masseuse begs to differ.

 

[mikeford]

That Teel caught stealing is a thing of beauty. Lawd.

I assume that you are responding to my post, which I left alone in the other thread. I never said he couldn’t hit in A+ or that they should trade him. I was merely responding to the several posts penciling him into the MLB outfield in 2025. I found those posts to be a little premature. When (hopefully) he starts crushing AA pitching next year, then projecting a spot for him on the MLB roster a couple seasons out may be something to plan for. That’s all I was saying.
