No love for Daniel Flores, or too soon?
Eric A Longenhagen

Too soon. He was on my ESPN Insider article about guys with monster upside. http://www.espn.com/mlb/insider/story/_/id/20563915/baseball-best-high...

Does Brandon Dixon have a position or is he destined for a DH role?

No position.

Assuming Ohtani posts and has success in his first few months as a two-way player what kind of impact does that have on McKay and Greene? Does it convince either of their orgs to let them develop both ways longer or will that be determined more by their own performance?

I think if we eventually get a true two-way guy he'll be an exception, a unicorn, a freak, not the start of something lots of other guys can do.

Jesus Luzardo, Oakland. He has been dominant recently, Thoughts?

Mid-90s with a potential plus changeup and average breaking ball, mature pitchability.

Candelario is killing it for Detroit so far.  Has your evaluation of him changed significantly this season?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:12
Nope, still really like him.

Are there any Cubs pitching prospects that you'd like to see in the AFL this year?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:13
Mills and De La Cruz to see how they're progressing after looking kind of meh in AZL rehabs. Jake Stinnett, too. Always interesting to check in on guys you also saw when they were amateurs.

you do realize no one buys espn insider right?
Eric A Longenhagen

I know Keith's stuff is almost entirely on Insider and that it does well enough for him to make a hell of a lot more money than I do.

Just read your insider piece.  Was expecting Vlad Jr to be on there somewhere, does he not make the list due to defense?
Eric A Longenhagen
1:15
Correct, just examining best case scenarios which means the list is all up the middle guys.

That will do it for me this week. I should have a post up about shortstops and their bodies tomorrow, so look for that. See you next Tuesday, lover of baseball. Be well in the interim.
