I readily admit that I totally get caught up in the prospect grades. McGonigle and his 70 rated hit tool. Eldridge and his 70 rated power. Max Clark and his 70 rated speed.

Needless to say it was a ridiculous miss Scout on them and it’s not like they said they were going to be failures, they just did not see what those guys were remotely capable of
