All the young dudes

Rich Hill reminds everyone he sucks in March
Rich Hill had his second lousy start this spring but compared to a game he pitched last March for the Oakland A’s he doing just fine. In that game, he walked the bases loaded and didn’t even get three outs. I was curious so I looked up a few things. As great as Hill was …

MLB updated their prospect lists this week which gives us a chance to see the progression from 2016 Preseason to 2016MidSeason(after draft) to 2016 PostSeason to 2017 Preseason. We can identify those who graduate, and those who moved up and dropped down. Dropping off the list because they exhausted their rookie status were Julio Urias …
