Ok Shane I will. I just assume that if the cost of pitching at the major league level is astronomical then the cost of minor league arms would be more expensive that the cost of minor league bats, forgive me for using logic. You go back to being our minor league guy that is butt hurt that our GM made our major league team better down the stretch and ready for a playoff run.

Quality minor league bats are more rare than quality minor league arms. It's how two minor league bats got two starting pitchers earlier this month, one whom is an ace.

There is a huge difference between trading one of the very best prospects in the game, and trading guys that don't make it to the top 100.

The Red Sox will get Giants prospects Edwin Escobar and Heath Hembree in the deal, pending approval.

 

From what I can tell the Red Sox got two crappy pitching prospects...

Is the difference you haven't heard of the guys that didn't make the list?

I hope not, that would be a very strange way to come up with a top 100 list. I think that would be more like a Scott Stradling Popularity Contest. It would basically be filled with Angels prospects, because I don't follow the minor leagues like you happen too. Would you have traded Russell for Sarmardzija? (I had to look up the spelling, that is a bullshit last name)

If they were on the Angels, we would all consider them gold.
