BP Annual Player Comments

YearComment
2019  Due to publishing agreements, the 2019 player comments and team essays are only available in the Baseball Prospectus 2019 book (available in hardcopy, and soon e-book and Kindle).
2018 Greene loves bad pitches. Save for a short, successful stint at A-ball in 2014, command issues have been the name of the game for Greene. At Double-A New Hampshire the right-hander walked more than five batters per nine innings, the only qualified pitcher to do so in the upper minors. Between the wild off-speed pitches dipping and diving out of the zone, Greene once again flashed a plus-plus fastball that touched triple digits. He'll have to prove that he can stick in the rotation soon or Toronto may try him in a role at the back of the bullpen.
2017 At 6-foot-3 with a fastball that can touch the upper 90s, Greene had always been projectable but hadn’t gotten the results. He caught fire in 2015 with an incredibly strong full-season debut but then struggled in 2016 at Double-A level. He really only has two pitches: a fastball and a changeup. At the lower levels of the minors, Greene could utilize his plus velocity to blow by hitters. Now, he’s going to have to develop a curveball or find an intensive sinker à la Aaron Sanchez. If that doesn’t work, he’ll always have his modelling career to fall back on. As former BP head prospect writer Jason Parks would say: “Great body.”
2016 At 20 years old, Conner Greene raced through three levels of the minors in 2015 on the strength of his fastball, spending the final month in Double-A. He's also a model and actor who guest-starred in the Charlie Sheen sitcom Anger Management, so he's probably received more medical advice from Jenny McCarthy than you have.

DateQuestionAnswer
2017-07-06 12:00:00 (link to chat)Were there many guys that did not make the preseason top 100 that were under consideration for this top 50? If so, who? Thanks.
(Ryan from Montreal)
Yeah, a few of them even made it. Some other notable ones that were considered were Kieboom, Josh Lowe, Jesus Sanchez, Conner Greene. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
2017-05-04 13:00:00 (link to chat)Have any prospects impressed you this year outside of top 100 guys? Or made any changes that you think are worth nothing that can shoot them up any lists?
(RH123 from Kansas)
Well, we didn't rank Sixto and should have. We didn't rank Vladito, and should have. But those guys were like in 102-110. Daniel Brito for sure. I liked Conner Greene more than I expected, though the issues are exactly what I expected. Ryan Castellani's stuff jumped in my second look at him. Could see a healthy Anthony Alford making a big jump back up the list this year too. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
2016-12-08 23:00:00 (link to chat)Connor Greene, Michael Kopech, and Noah Syndergaard (sp?). You gotta shave ones head, hit against another, and trade the other for RA Dickey, GO!!!
(Jmax from Niagara, Ont)
I would never, and I mean NEVER, dare to touch Conner Greene's locks. Jeez, there's probably an insurance company strongman rustling around in my bushes right now just for giving platform to the idea. I'll take my licks against him (figuratively! I mean that figuratively!), trade Kopech, and shear Thor if only to see what he looks like when he pitches pissed off. (Wilson Karaman)
2015-08-21 13:00:00 (link to chat)How much of a prospect is Conner Greene?
(Anthony from Toronto)
By all accounts I've seen he's taken a couple solid steps forward this year. Projects as a potential league-average starter, so certainly belongs on the radar in deeper dynasty leagues at this point and he'll likely be discussed in heavy rotation for our Blue Jays top 10 this winter.
