We need to contact this guy and get him to start a minor league blog. I want/need top 30s for every team.
Where Alonso.
excerpts:
“Freddie Freeman is a good knight, and has a strong arm and is so fast."
"2. Justin Smoak of Texas: Smoak is a powerful prospect that his game is in this season with Texas. Justin Smoak is a very young prospect (with just 21 years old), who impressed with her team partner and co-players."
I'll let you wonder at who the #1 1B prospect is.

i agree that its funny in its own right
just the way you wrote ill let you wonder who the #1 1b prospect is, makes it sound like you disagree with it
everyone is so condescending here all the time i forgot that we can all laugh together on something
by PHGold09 on Dec 4, 2025 1:26 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
I disagree, If you look at the numbers the past 3 years
Laugh’s FIP was:
2007: 3.47
2008: 4.28
2009: 3.63
You’re clearly just overvaluing laughing, you know nothing about prospects. :)
You’re name has 2k9 in it — what are you some 8 year-old who makes Pillsbury Doughboy cookies and jerks off to that bullshit video game with Tim Lincecum on the cover--

What… The… Eff?
But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright Brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

my favorite
“Eric Hosmer from Kansas City: Erick Hosmer is a great competitor to play for Kansas City is. His talent is amazing and is a player with very good conditions for many seasons”
I was trying to find a comp who also had very good conditions for many seasons, but I just couldn’t think of anyone.
