Neither am I. Love to watch him play. Have been seeing him since he was 12.

But to move him from a good college player to a position on an MLB roster at this time is a stretch.

May he finish his days as 5 with a boom.

No one inferred that he's definitely making an MLB roster. You had maybe two people who think a "pro prospect" is an MLB player. Pro prospect, with regards to baseball, is being drafted or signed to to play professional baseball (majors and minors included.) Those who know baseball that were calling him a pro prospect were referencing that. None of those guys said he's a definite MLB player. If someone wanted to refer to him being an MLB prospect, that's another discussion.

Either you are ignorant of that distinction or, as evidence will suggest with the numerous other posts you have on just about every topic on this board, you are here to drag out pointless arguments and be willfully ignorant or purposely contrarian on the topic.

Who said he was going to a 25 man roster. Long way from getting drafted to the Show, 5 levels. Did u know that?

Your conjecture is nothing less than amazing. You have obviously not read any of my post in context. Not surprising, however.

Anyone who would question his draftability has no clue. He got drafted out of high school. Where he lands in the draft will be fun to watch. I hope he goes as high as some on here are suggesting. All I did was provide a full picture of the player.

I agree he is something of a conundrum probably being one of the top 50 woodbat summer players in the country, therefore a projected top draft, AND a player who can't bat .200 in February with a metal bat. Both are undeniable and irreconcilable. That's baseball.

I'm sorry, but a 5 tool player does not consistently start off slow (3 for 3 on this) and commit 15 errors in a season on defense.

He is a good baseball player that I and most are glad that we have, but has been given way more opportunities than most. Most that have consistently started as he has over the past three years would have found themselves on the bench at some point or for some time.

Save all the grandious. We have gone to games and watched on tv.

For this year, may his slow start end quicker than it has in the past. We need him NOW.

Vic, somebody had that exact same criticism last year, he’s given too many chances. Somebody else wouldn’t get the same, bla, bla, bla. He’s ended up as one of our best players both seasons.

Todd Lott didn't get enough chances.

Therein lies the issue. NOBODY that I can remember has said that 5 has been given too many chances. That is a misnomer. What I have said is that some OTHERS may have faired much better than THEY have had THEY been given similar opportunities. Todd Lott his first two years is one example.

However people on this board are so protective of 5 that THEY interpreted this as a knock on 5. It wasn’t then and is not now.

Hopefully Fitzgerald is the second coming of Lott.

And figures it out before the chances run out.
