Eddie Rosario I'd go B+
Fantastic numbers, not old for the league, and a sleeper you called last year. Only went as low as he did in the draft because he wasn’t heavily scouted.
"I couldn't do that. Could you do that? Why can they do it? Who are those guys?"
well if Sano is a "B+"
I’d only go “B” on Rosario having Sano 1 and Rosario 2 both at B+ ‘s might sit strangely with me, not saying I’d not be for it but just a thought

Kepler
Was wondering John, from what I’ve read from your updates on him, he seems to have neither impressed nor disappointed. Seeing how he is still very young for his level, just holding his own seems to be a positive. Was there any particular reason to downgrade from a B- to a C+ since last year, or am I just nitpicking?
well
Well the B- last year may have been too high. My opinion about him hasn’t changed much.

Jairo Perez
I’m curious what you see in him? I would not have anticipated the C+ grade.
perez
Yeah that is borderline. Old for the level. But missed all of 2010 with Tommy John, not his fault, and has always hit well when healthy. Low strikeout rate.
Hendriks
Bothering you again John, but just curious. What kind of effect does Hendriks MLB performance sway your grade? Is it too small a sample size to move the needle, or, at the very least, does that time help you confirm any notes/thoughts you had on not just Hendriks, but other players that have a sip of coffee?
who do u like better john?
salcedo or wimmers?
