2016-09-07 19:00:00 (link to chat)I absolutely love Tim Finnegan's work so I'm glad you mentioned him......I was also wondering what you think about the Mets prospect depth. Seems to me that in the past a guy like Matt Reynolds or Josh Edgin (i.e. backup or reliever close to majors) would easily profile around 15ish or so but I cant see a guy like that on a current Mets list higher than around 30 or so.
(Devin from Albany)		At the time that Reynolds was in that mix, he wasn't projecting to be a fringe utility guy, he was projecting to be a potential starting SS. Edgin, I don't know if he was really ever that high in the system.

It's absolutely deeper than when it was digging out of the dregs of those late Omar drafts, because the Alderson regime has prioritized depth in both the draft and IFA. I just don't know that it's unusually deep compared to the crowd. (Jarrett Seidler)
