DateQuestionAnswer
2019-07-29 13:00:00 (link to chat)Is Adonis Medina more likely to be starting in PHI in the next two months or used as trade bait to get another arm?
(Craig from Chicago)
I would think it's more likely he's traded, but I wouldn't bet on either scenario for this season. (Mark Barry)
2019-07-08 20:00:00 (link to chat)Does Adonis Medina or Damon Jones have a chance to make it to the majors in PHI this season?
(Craig from Chicago )
Saw Medina recently in Double-A and he didn't look like a guy that was close, but he's on the 40-man and it's not like he's going to get punted off, so a September call-up is possible. I like Damon Jones a good bit and think he's a guy who will pitch in the majors, but 2019 is pretty aggressive given that he doesn't have to go on the 40. (Jarrett Seidler)
2019-02-06 21:00:00 (link to chat)How close was Adonis Medina to making the cut? He seems like he is getting a lot of hype with 3 above average pitches.
(Bryzzo from Illinois)
He was in our honorable mentions section. We like him as a potential fantasy SP4/5, and if you prefer him to any of the last five or six pitchers we listed or a bunch of teenagers we want to gamble on, you're well within your rights. I definitely prefer him to Brandon Lowe, who is only on the list because Bret is bad and dumb and wrong. - BC (Dynasty 101 Chat w/ Ben Carsley and Bret Sayre)
2018-12-06 20:00:00 (link to chat)Is Adonis Medina underated?
(Kevin from Chanahon)
If I thought so, I'd probably get him moved up on our rankings. (Jarrett Seidler)
2018-09-10 14:00:00 (link to chat)Hey Darius! What can you tell me about Twins SS prospect Wander Javier. Do you like his upside?
(Dusty from Colorado)
I heard you were into Adonis Medina these days, Dusty. Or maybe Wander Franco. I think you should start telling us what you know about Wander Javier. Missing the year isn't great but I don't think it affects his significant upside much. (Darius Austin)
2018-08-29 19:00:00 (link to chat)Still down on Adonis Medina?
(Kelvin from Grant South)
Don't think I was ever down on him? He's had a great season and might legitimately have three plus pitches. (Eddy Almaguer)
2018-07-30 23:00:00 (link to chat)How about this trade offer: Mike Trout and Andrelton Simmons to the Phillies for J.P. Crawford, Sixto Sanchez, JoJo Romero, Adam Haseley, Ranger Suarez and Adonis Medina.
(a.j. from dallas)
Mmmm throw in a nice bottle of chianti and a couple pulp mags of bigfoot erotica with that package going back to Anaheim and you might just be on to something. Short of that though, mmmmmm yeah no. (Wilson Karaman)
2018-07-30 23:00:00 (link to chat)How much should I give up for 2 months of Clayton Kershaw? Is Florial, Adonis Medina, and Franklyn Kilome too much? Mostly worried about Florial!
(The Chris from Mexico)
If you're in it with a chance to win it, heck yeah, go for it. I'd be more worried about Kershaw's back, honestly, but no guts, no glory.

2018-07-30 23:00:00 (link to chat)Im moving on from Wander Javier. What can I realistically expect from Adonis Medina?
(Dusty from Colorado)
Wait, WHAAAAAA??? You really needed to preface that with BREAKING and some of those little flashing light emojis, maybe a couple a them reggaeton horns for good measure. Jeffrey & Jarrett are your resident Medina guys, the latter just wrote him up in our "Just Missed" section of the mid-season top 50: https://legacy.baseballprospectus.com/chat/ (Wilson Karaman)
2018-06-22 13:00:00 (link to chat)I dealt Adonis Medina for Dylan Covey. Should I be arrested for robbery?
(Kurt from New Lenox)
It could definitely work out for you but think you may have sold low and bought high. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
2018-06-22 13:00:00 (link to chat)I saw you just commented on Adonis Medina. What's his potential ceiling?
(Robbie from Philly)
The reports have the stuff a little down this year. We had him as a 6/5 last year. I don't see a reason to move off that too much, but the risk factor is up. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
2017-03-22 20:00:00 (link to chat)In the upcoming season for you when you are going to games who are you most excited to see in the Eastern & Sally Leagues?
(Leonard from None of Your Business)
Just my *home* teams project to have Gleyber Torres, Justus Sheffield, Mickey Moniak, probably Sixto Sanchez and/or Adonis Medina, maybe Jhailyn Ortiz or Kevin Gowdy, Jorge Mateo and James Kapielian within a month or two, and some other interesting arms. (Jarrett Seidler)
2016-12-02 13:00:00 (link to chat)Favorite breakout prospect for 2017? What about someone who you think will suffer a drop in status?
(Francisco from Maryland)
Breakouts I'll be watching for: Anderson Tejeda, Dustin May, Joey Wentz, Riley Pint
Guys I could see falling: Jorge Mateo, Adonis Medina, Anderson Espinoza, Jahmai Jones (Jeffrey Paternostro)
2016-11-22 20:00:00 (link to chat)What can you tell me about some of the young Phillies arms? Do you believe in Adonis Medina, Sixto, & Kilome to all develop? Do you suspect someone will take a chance on Seranthony Dominguez & what type of ceiling do you see for him? Have heard rave reports on him from ST! Thanks!
(Mark from Philadelphia)
Glowing reports all season on Sixto. Have also heard great things about Adonis, and I hope to see both often in Lakewood next year. Kilome I saw a bunch this year and it's a Jekyll-and-Hyde act. You could tell me he's a top global prospect or a bad High-A reliever in two years and I'd believe either.

Was a little surprised Seranthony wasn't protected, but that was a goofy amount of dudes they had to add and he's really far away. Carrying a pitcher with 50 innings of full-season ball is always really tough, but it might be easier if the new CBA adds a 26th man. (Jarrett Seidler)
2016-03-03 13:00:00 (link to chat)If you had to cut two of the following (Huascar Ynoa, Jairo Labourt, Adonis Medina & Jermaine Palacios) from your (extremely deep) dynasty roster, who would it be and why?
(traindoggah from space)
Good Lord. Probably Labourt and Palacios. Definitely not Medina. I like Medina a lot. (Christopher Crawford)
