Off days suck, but they suck less after a series win.

Traveling today, so I caught a break on the "damn it's boring without them!" feeling.

ESPN updated their top 10 prospects for every team, something to peruse on off-day. No real surprises here, but other teams did get some prospects for selling at the deadline.

I’m surprised that Ullola isn’t in the Top 10. He has 3.7 ERA in Sugarland this year which seems pretty good to me since 50% of the games are played in altitude. He strikes out more than 1 batter per inning. He definitely needs to work on walking fewer hitters.

They are dumb. He should be 1 on the list imo. 
having the astros system with 2 pitchers in the top 10 at 8 and 9 is dumb. I can almost guarantee you that 75% of the value in our system is in arms.

Also, just crunched all the AL numbers on pitchers. I find it extremely likely that Brown should finish 3rd or so if the season were to end today. Anything lower than that and honestly the voters will have gotten it wrong. I’m not saying he’s guaranteed for finish top 3 but if he can get it to the house with an era 2.5 or lower I would bet he’s top 3 and we get the pick.

If you have a top 100 prospect up on the first day of the season with rookie eligibility the team gets an extra draft pick if:

1) they win ROY

2) they finish top 3 in cy young before they become arbitration eligible 

3) same as 2 but MVP. 
they did this to try to incentivize teams to not fuck with service time manipulation in the last CBA.

Yep, his H/R splits are insane. He needs to get his shit under control, 63 BBs in 82.2 IP is awful.

Also, using him as a bulk reliever seems like a stupid thing, his last two appearences have been awful.

We need hunter brown to start banging a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model,  too

Yeah, he needs his Kate Upton. Maybe he could hook up with Sydney Sweeney and she could start a new AE campaign about how she loves Brown shirts?

So what's your top 5/10?  Is Framber in there somewhere? Any relievers that are close to the top?  There was some buzz about Clase last year being considered with about a .85 ERA and nearly 50 saves. Likely would never happen with the voters keeping out non-starters, but still an interesting possibility.

France gave up hit to open game then struck out next 5 batters. Looking good through 2 innings. He could be up soon I expect. 

Then proceeds to walk 4 and give up 3ER, but did end with 7Ks
