I was a 1st yr scout working for the Seattle Mariners. Stanford had this RHP that I turned in as a 72 OFP. Mike Mussina The highest # I I have ever put on a player. My Scouting Director Roger Jongewaard Called me and said you just turned him in as a Hall of Fame prospect.
The Astros have become very good at developing prospects who are appealing to other teams.

“Treat a person as he is & he will remain as he is. Treat a person as if he were what he could be & should be - & then he will become what he could be & should be.”
A great example of why “kinetic (force) chain” can often be contradictory to “kinematic (motion) sequencing”. Swing on right shows greater rear leg femur / pelvic coordination- middle out movement. Swing on left shows a ground up force approach by pushing laterally.
Predicting a bench clearing today for the Astros game, through analytics they say you take the emotion out the game. We will see some emotion tonight......
One thing analytics can’t do is when to throw a brush back pitch or when to intentionally hit someone, the Indians are way overdue. Watch next round I’m predicting a clearing of the benches.
