ONE top prospect list has Yorke ranked around #96 and the others don't have him as a top 100 prospect. That is hardly glowing in my view given where he was drafted. Mayer was the #1 ranked guy in last yr's draft so you can hardly say that Bloom out did himself taking him at #4. This Anthony I am not all that familiar with but unless I'm mistaken he's not a top 100 prospect either.

exactly

Yeah Bloom has been a genius
-
These guys were all brought in by DD
-
he would simply be a bench player for any contender

A Realistic View of 2023: Part II
Randy Red Sox replied to moonslav59's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
Ohtani is a great player but he will not be worth the massive contract he is going to get. I would be very worried about an arm injury -
Following another last place finish in 2024?

If Bloom makes that trade then he needs to be fired IMMEDATELY !! when are people going to realize that you need to DEVELOP your OWN homegrown pitchers OR trade for COST CONTOLLED PITCHERS UNDER 26 YRS OLD. This was the model in Tampa where this buffoon Bloom came from. Tampa loaded up on young top cost controlled P and got their best results on entry level contracts. Then when they hit 27-29 yrs old they were dealt for more young top cost controlled P. Bloom has done ZERO of this in Boston. Ohtani's best days are in 2024 and MAYBE 2025 and then it is downhill. Let someone else pay the OVERWHELMING price for him !!!
-
You mean pitching !!!
-
i am ok with either since the Sox need C prospects as well
-
MLB pulled off a GREAT move by letting that kid make the Mariner's 1st rd pick. Very inspiring. Well done MLB !!
-
i understand that
-
well maybe those teams don't have the same M/L depth the Sox do
-
Another SP drafted at #16. So much for the theory that teams don't value P in the 1st rd. Bloom needs to focus on power arms now.
-
Nonetheless they drafted him as a C first.
-
Well he's NOT a SS--Sox system is lacking as bad at the C position as they are at P. They drafted Teel because he was a C and ranked higher then they were picking. Bloom shocked the MLB world again.
-
me too
-
There see I'm not so stupid after all. We need a good C prospect too.
-
next up is Bloom with his shock the world pick. Waldrep or Steele will make me happy.
-
Rated by pretty much everybody. There was general SHOCK when Bloom took Yorke with that 1st rd pick.
-
Well 4 of the top 10 picks so far have been pitchers. just saying. keeping my fingers crossed for Waldrep but like I said I am going to lose it if Bloom takes some guy ranked way below where we are picking.
-
BTW Chase Dollander a RHP from Tennessee is ranked #14 right where we pick. at #11 is another pitcher Noble Meyer. Could he slide to #14? Hurston Waldrep is another SP we could have in our decisions. I will tell you that I am gonna lose it if Bloom takes some guy ranked well south of #14.
-
and Casas goes where?? Myself I am not in favour of Doing a guy 24 or 25 years old.
-
and where is Jordan going to play?
