2021-03-26 13:00:00 (link to chat)What are your thoughts on Simeon Woods Richardson? He hasn't looked out of place at all, SP2 potential?
(Mike Meyers from O Can-a-Duuuh)
Woods Richardson has certainly impressed this spring, especially in his latest outing against the Yankees. I do not think he has SP2 upside given his limited velocity (low-90s) and lack of a true out pitch, but I do think he has mid-rotation upside with improving command of 3-4 solid average or better offerings. (Jesse Roche)
2020-01-27 13:00:00 (link to chat)You no likey Simeon Woods Richardson?
(Enrique from Unknown)
I like SWR fine, and he'd probably have made a Top 150 or thereabouts. The stuff isn't quite as good as the stat line and we think he has more reliever risk than the arms towards the back of the 101. I doubt anyone outside of the Mets and Jays orgs saw him more than our Sally guys this year and there wasn't a strong push to get him on the list, although the difference between him and say Alek Manoah isn't as large as the numerical gap. (Top 101 Prospects Chat)
2018-11-30 13:00:00 (link to chat)Am I crazy to think that even after this trade, the Mets still essentially have a first round pick from the 2018 draft (Simeon Woods-Richardson)?
(Daniel from NY)
A little. The velo bump is nice, but he's still primarily an arm strength guy at this point. He's also not super projectable despite being a young prep arm (although he doesn't need more velo or anything). I think the draft position and bonus are about right all in all, and I was down on him around the draft. (Jeffrey Paternostro)
