1. Walt Davis Posted: March 24, 2023 at 05:51 PM (#6121302)Anyway, it's more along the lines of what bbc and cfb seemed to want, closer to what I want, probably still missing that aspect that it's a very good thing to churn out those 1.5-3 WAR players and useful pitchers even if they're not at all exciting to write about.
You won't find the Tigers high on this list, cuz in order to have "the best young players', you technically have to have "players".
Will Pitt ever spend money either on keeping their young players with big long-term buyouts or signing FAs? Probably not under current ownership but they did tie up Hayes and it is nice to see McCutchen in Pitt again.
On the methodology (and these lists in general), I wonder if we need to think of pitching differently than hitting. There's the rare phenom but most pitchers don't start having any impact until 23-24 at the earliest. You're unlikely to have much important under-27 pitching talent on your roster and pitchers tend to age/develop differently. So maybe under-30 for pitchers. Or to the extent that these lists are intended to identify the future contenders, maybe just rate on the three categories of pre-ML, pre-arb and pre-FA. Granted, that can easily veer off into $/WAR but the important aspect is control -- that the O's had control of a 25-yo Machado didn't matter a whole lot given he was FA at the end of the year while 26-yo Hayes would still be 4 years from FA even without his buyout.
I guess I'd lost touch, I didn't realize that Cameron actually works for them now! Oh, the BBTF thread that would have been. I suppose there probably actually was a BBTF thread for it... sure is, nothing too exciting though.
