Praises Hahn and his work. Mantras (sp) just missed top 100, but feels he's someone that can be a major impact as a starter or lights out closer.

Missed the names but he's high on a CF for us because of athleticism. Said he has skills of Baez without as free seining of a bat...Hawkins????

It's a long way from #12 to #1.

Not worried about being 1 for the prospect pool. I want a top 10 with an already proven roster all the time. Just good enough to be able to swing mid season deals. Guys like Rodon may be great but are unproven and it is ok with where we are at because we aren't relying on unknowns

It's a long way from miserable failures to world champions.

Troll all you want
If you go down the list of prospects, you'll find that #12 is a long way from #1. There's nothing trollish about it. Where do the Cardinals rank? That would be a bellweather, one would think. Now, that said, the Sox are in better shape in the farm than many had guessed, at least on paper that is and as an outsider, Hahn looks like a winning GM so far.

Yep. There's a real trick to maintaining the farm while making trades and being competitive at the MLB level.

It's trolling because you are inferring something about your team in a Sox thread.

I'm thrilled where we are as an organization

These ranking are pretty much bullshit to me and anything that has the Cubs ranking #1 in anything good makes me really question it.

The Cubs finished 1st in what league? Who knew? Who was President back then? Or better yet, was the United States even formed yet? Was it Rounders that they won in? What was their name back then?

Um....... and when has that happened for your team?
