Tiger337 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Nobody is writing Dingler off. He is good prospect, not someone you can count on (few prospects are), but someone with a lot of potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody not jumping on the hype train isn't necessarily writing prospects off, just know better than to get hopes up because most of them fail.

Dan Gilmore Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 As a 22 yr old, it seems he’s a little behind for advancement through the minors, but is that true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Cowan Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 That's true, he has been at High A only since last year. He's 22 and needs to get to Erie soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not that old, he's just been around forever already. That said, the best prospects should be young for their league, esp non-college players.

It's true for the guys you'd expect to be impact players. But for a guy who could be an OK big leaguer for a few years in his prime it's normal.

RatkoVarda Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 so far, minor league system seems to be a reflection of major league team lots of solid to good pitching performances despite injuries up and down system (even lower tier guys) hitters are either low-ceiling platoon or bench bats, or way too young to know if they are ML starters; above Lakeland there are only 4 guys who even might be ML starters (Greene IL, Kreidler IL, Dingler and Keith) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RatkoVarda Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Garneau not claimed and did not elect FA, so I think he can keep his 1st big pay day ever at 34 - $1.175M good for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a bit over the limits? Must be some headshots need to be taken down off of the site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
