BP Annual Player Comments

Year		Comment
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		Josh Sborz's particular struggles to throw strikes and miss left-handed bats at Double-A foreshadowed a likely conversion to situational relief work, where his explosive heater and solid slider will have a better chance to play with modest control.
2017		A fastball/slider pitcher with good command, Josh Sborz showed he could handle the lower minors. The question is whether he can handle a long-term role in the rotation.
