There's three guys you just mentioned.
No, I disagree with that part because they've spent on pitching.
Look at the money they've spent on Carlos Redon and Max Fried and Garrett Cole.
But also, and let DeGrom be our guide on this, sometimes the guys who turn out to be amazing don't come up alley-hood as the top of top prospects.

It's been 12 years now as a top, top prospect.
