Albies was 19 at that time. Gaining power as a 19 year old is much more believable than a 22 year old gaining power. 

Yea it's incredibly concerning that he's got essentially 24 months left as a prospect.  If he's 25 and hitting 270/330/350 in AAA he's not a prospect anymore he's a poor man's Yolmer Sanchez.  It's late early for Madrigal.

People are panicking way too much on Madrigal.  The sad reality for us is Chris Getz and his player development staff suck and that means it will always take longer for guys to figure shit out.  The fact that Madrigal still has elite bat to ball skills means he’s some moderate adjustments away from being a high average hitter.  That won’t make him a star but hopefully a an above average regular when you factor in plus defense and very good base running ability.

I will promise to not worry about him for the entire time that people will promise to stop saying that he should be rushed to the big leagues or be our starting 2b sometime in 2020. 

I think this is a fair trade.
