Third overall at this juncture & well off the pace.

Am surprised - it’s clearly Brad Peacock for me at this point.

Harvey vs Erlin

I like Erlin, but he cannot compete with Harvey’s stuff - and Harvey has actually had great results with said stuff.

by cookiedabookie on Dec 1, 2025 1:34 PM EST reply actions  

I understand the point of view for everyone on Erlin.

He is the safest bet to reach his ceiling for sure on this list. But I am not sure if I would rate him the top arm in his own system, personally I have both Sampson and Kelly ahead of him.

Damn

Russ, please don’t post links to these battles on team pages, directing people to vote for their fan favorite. It really throws off the results. We don’t want a battle of fan bases. This already happened with tarheels before. Just stop.

by auclairkeithbc on Dec 1, 2025 3:19 PM EST reply actions  

really sucks

the way you did it too. at least when tarheels did it as a fanshot, he was able to delete it.

Zach Lee

I’d like to see him soon. I know some don’t think he has ace potential, but he’s athletic, very young, and still has room for improvement, even though he’s already pretty good.

Voting Closed

We are going to runoff Erlin and Harvey (both win 19 votes) to determine the winner.

This is the second time someone has posted a link to a specific one of these polls on a fan site, and caused people to vote for the first time for the player that poster has urged the new voter to vote for. If I find a slew of brand new voters from a specific fan site, and a post directing people to vote for that player, those votes will not count.

New voters are certainly welcome to the process. We did have one new voter vote for Harvey, without any obvious reason to connect him to the post on the fanpage and that vote did count.
