southsider2k5 Posted July 23, 2024 Share Posted July 23, 2024 Cags 45 Hagen 46. This is going to be one of those long running Soxtalk debates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand True, but there were other teams after that which were going to pass on him. The Cardnials were just one that wasn't overly concerned.

mac9001 Posted July 24, 2024 Share Posted July 24, 2024 I really hope Taylor gets in a solid 85 innings next year. This was a bit of a punt year for him, but I look forward to see who moves faster next year between him and Smith. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a bit of a punt year for him, but I look forward to see who moves faster next year between him and Smith. Expand I bet barring further injury, Taylor gets some time in the fall league. He is at 19.1 innings and looked like 4 innings was his max. He was moved to the 60 day DL on 6/12 so roughly Aug 12 if all goes well. He might get another 20-30 innings counting fall. Think 85-100 in 2025 between A-A+. Not pushing the level may allow more innings since less stress? Maybe to 125 in 2026 between A+ and AA. If he is healthy and doing well perhaps things accelerate and he gets to AAA in 2026. If that is a reasonable plan goal, I wouldn't push him to MLB when he is hitting his max innings. MLB 2027? looking at 150 or so innings. If you know next year is noncompetitive at the MLB level, we should prioritize health over pushing people to the MLB level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It really all depends on what exactly his injury is. The fact he was put straight on to the 60 day DL scares me a lot, as does the lack of information surrounding his injury and status.
