2019-05-22 13:00:00 (link to chat)Hi Craig. As an all around great guy, I have to get your opinion on the Royals farm system. It's my opinion that it should be ranked 35th or 40th in baseball, but I wanted to get your esteemed opinion on why Nick Pratto is so horrible and Chase Vallot is being robbed of a promotion in Lexington.
(shauncore from Great Midwest)		I haven't seen Pratto and I've asked the team if we've caught him. It's hard to explain a 450 OPS given his pedigree even if a lot of 20 year olds aren't at High-A. I'll update if anyone has a good look at him. Re: Vallot, I think they want him playing everyday and Melendez is in Wilmington. Not a bad problem to have, unless you're Vallot. (Craig Goldstein)
2018-02-05 12:00:00 (link to chat)Mark Vientos or Nick Pratto?
(Phil from Adelphia)		I think Pratto is the better prospect at present, but I'd take Vientos on a personal pref list. (Top 101 with Jeffrey Paternostro)
