SD owes the rest, though technically that money is going to the White Sox and would NOT go with on a straight waiver claim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember him from college as a starter and was going to ask whether he could start - thanks for addressing that in the write-up.

Oh I agree, just thought it was funny he was the exact last of 65. A little more concerning is Frare coming in at 65, but I’m not sure how much stock to put in their assessments on fringier prospects.

The same Fangraphs that didn't consider Dylan Cease a top 130 prospect as of a month ago (yes I know they've since changed it)? I don't know what happened but it seems like they've gotten really lazy this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Anytime you are using a more statistical method to evaluate something that isn't yet a known factor, you aren't going to get good results. Minor league relievers aren't a blob on the radar for a fangraphs type evaluation. This doesn't surprise me at all that FG doesn't value the deal.

GreenSox Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I would say that Medeiros at 40 is a bigger concern, to the extent one is concerned with fangraphs. But fangraphs see him as a LOGGY and if they are right, then, yes, that would bad value. But the Sox think he can start. That's sufficient upside.

They also purposefully downgraded all future grades for pitchers this year based off of the historical underperformance of them. When they are already downgrading pitchers, it's not a shock that 24 year old low minors relievers aren't on their hot commodity list.

Top flight relievers are worth way more when they have a proven track record. Hahn will let next season unfold for a bit to see how the team is shaping up and A) if the team is still bad, he'll flip our good, track record having, relievers for (presumably better) prospects or B) if the team seems to be turning around, keep them in the fold for the next playoff push.
