that is it for now..there are a lot of bull pen ...guys..that will not fit..in this post

 

[ulmax]

when we get..a roster of who..is at every..lvl..we will have a bit better idea..of what the mariners need..in the draft
which..we kind of know...
but we will adjust..even a bit more...at that point

 

[wazzu31]

You are not wrong. That overused word 'Potential' got him on the list because he was a freak athlete in high school. That sticks with a guy for years throughout the minors until he truly uses it all up. That is why I argue so much on these farm ratings crap and the use of potential. Potential, as I say, means haven't done nothing yet.

The athlete is the thing in baseball, you use to be able to find a spot for an athlete in the lineup. But now that baseball is eliminating athleticism it does seem counter productive trying to get the Kenny Lofton type guys.

 

[ulmax]

only pitching 1 inning at AA..it is more likely..that....

Alejandro Requena

will be at AA arkansas..than at tacoma....but they may start him at tacoma..
on the
gilbert front
he is on the roster..at arkansas..but will likely...be at tacoma

Sad, but true. Buxton is a good example. He is finally starting to show what he can do, but he was a top prospect for 6 six years and now in his 7th he is putting it together. Because of guys like him I assume, teams are looking at go for broke hitters and not thoroughbreds.

 

[ulmax]

arkansas..mariners AA..starts on may 4th

ark..travelers..mariners

The analytics part is maddening when it comes to scouting. Guys like Trammell or any real athletic guy has potential. But showing technique to get a guy to .260 is much easier than molding a pure athlete into hitting 30 home runs. What was the fast as hell athlete the Mariners had a couple of years back? If he got on base everyone got out of their seats just due to the threat of a steal.

a guy..who could actually....could .be on the 40 man at some point that i forgot to..put at tacoma..jack (name change..lol) rain hammer...lol
jack is good....if he could take his hitting..to the next lvl...a minors car ..270..hitter
jack could be a solid..2B at mlb...but needs to hit 300 or better...at..AAA..jack can hit..HRs..but he does not...most of the time...if he could get his Hrs up as well..to 20..per 400..at bats.or so...or better.................that would and getting his ave above..300 at AAA..would put jack...at mlb..cuz jacks defence..is good enough

azl...then rookie league........send him to moesto....which is low A..now.........with no rookie league..only azl..league

 

[ulmax]

if they drafted..HS..guys..sending them to DSL..would be ok..but..sending guys there that..went to collage..would be like
sending a guy...to a 16..to 19..year old..league..ya just would not do that

but..like DSL..could use ...one more catcher......so..mariners draft a HS catcher..to start..there..and one to start at..azl..
i like only one collage catcher..right now..........lol i have already posted him

one more thing is..they have...mlb draft league...idk...on how that works...or how the mariners....fit into that

 

[ulmax]

ohh myy good ness

Seattle Mariners placed LHP Marco Gonzales on the 10-day injured list. Left forearm strain.

04/28/21	Seattle Mariners claimed C Jacob Nottingham off waivers from Milwaukee Brewers.
04/28/21	Seattle Mariners designated RHP Brandon Brennan for assignment.

brennan..DFAed...maybe he will be at tacoma..we will see......but i would not count on that.....also
may mean they already tryed..to trade him with no takers...oooohhh

tapia........mariners..i think...want to .make him into a closer..we will see if he is ready..for that

Jacob Nottingham o..this would put cal.Raliegh..at AA..or Josh Morgan.......and he would be on the 40 man
