Too small of a sample size to come to any real conclusions about the tall pitchers. I tend to lean toward them having more advantages than disadvantages.
I love the high upside targets. No idea, but the release of the hounds onto high school prospects is great. Not necessarily to take them, but to be open to them.
I guess this guy will be hard to sign though
Lets build a long term sustainable talent pipeline complete with smart planners guiding the way so we do not have to think about Juan Sotos. Crazy, but it might work.
This model hasn't been copied around the league because it makes no sense to fill out the payroll with unproven players when they could be on rookie deals while paying for veteran production. If anything, the Soxshould operate like the Rays.
