Alvin Rittman signed Pryor – I think he’s with the Pirates now.
Garrett Ball got Capps. Garrett was also our NC regional scout, IIRC, so he was the eyes on the ground for Seager, Moran and Ackley.
We just have had a bunch of good scouts in the Zduriencik years. I'm hoping that Lopes is next in line for awesomeness, but we do have a nice collage of talent to get some luminaries out of. Zunino's ETA should be May+ of 2014 if he takes to AA like he took to Everett, Hultzen should compete for a starting spot in ST 2013...we just keep promoting talent.
At some point that should tip the scales in favor of a winning team, right? I still think we need one more hitter instead of relying on Carp (as we did Smoak before him) to be the MOTO hitter who makes this offense work, but we'll see what Jack comes up with. I can't complain about the young talent already on the team, and our bullpen is quickly becoming sadistically delightful. I LOL'ed at the "clayface" moniker, Doc - I wouldn't charge that mound either.
