we'll see what happens with the raise.
And now all these guys that they've added to their system and they're going to have the number two overall pick next year.
So I'm not going to say burrito is going to be number one, but you can very well be a top 100 guy pretty quickly into the year.
So long as he stays healthy.
Yeah, it was fascinating to see so many prospects go the other way for Shane Boz, who I've always liked, to be clear.
I really liked him as a pitching prospect.
Hasn't quite taken off in the way that I would have thought, but the fact that there are so many years of control, obviously that's going to drive up the price.
The big thing that struck me for a lot of the trades that we've seen this offseason is that they've been not always major leaguer for major leaguer, but it's a lot of
trades that don't have prospects.
So I wonder how much the Rays were thinking about that.
Like, hey, we're in a place now where we could pick up some prospects and teams might be more willing to just keep adding names to the list because they don't value prospects the way they used to.
And, you know, cashing in at the right time and just calling up the Orioles and being like, hey, here's four.
How do you feel about that for and the Orioles being like, hey, you know, you get a Caden Bodine in there.
That was an interesting draft pick to me because he was one of the best catching prospects in the last year.
They still really like Abby Rushman.
They have Samuel Visayo.
Also, they took Mike Irish, who was the top catching prospect in that last year's draft.
it's a good indication of like, you don't draft for need.
You draft the best players and sometimes you get to include them in, in trades.
Thankfully the trade Turner rule, uh, we can do this months after instead of a year after.
