BP Chats

Date	Question	Answer
2020-03-06 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Always scrounging for filling out the team. Based on ADP I see the following players undervalued by the market, your thoughts? Alex Dickerson, Anthony Santander, Nicky Lopez, Hanser Alberto, Miguel Rojas, Brandon Belt, Adam Frazier (ugh), Victor Reyes, Avisail Garcia, Leury Garcia, Mauricio Dubon, Nomar Mazara, and why not Josh Donaldson? (pauls121 from Madison)	Based on ADP, I like Mazara (of course) and Donaldson. I am not in on the others mostly due to lack of impact offensive ability (Lopez, Alberto, Rojas, Frazier, Reyes, L. Garcia), lack of consistent playing time (Dickerson, Avisail Garcia, Mauricio Dubon), and simply proper pricing of the talent (Santander and Belt). (Jesse Roche)
2016-06-20 16:00:00 (link to chat)	Who is the best team you have seen in your scouting life? (Larry from NC)	I will preface this by saying that I have not been scouting for that long. I have probably been unaware of the talent of other teams while at games. But I will say 2014 Myrtle Beach Pelicans. I did my summer internship down there and attended far too many games. Here are the major leaguers from that team: Joey Gallo, Cody Ege, Odubel Herrera, Hanser Alberto, Alexander Claudio, Keone Kela, Chi Chi Gonzalez, Andrew Faulkner, Abel De Los Santos. While these guys are not in the big leagues yet, they will be soon: Nick Williams, Lewis Brinson, Chris Bostick, Jorge Alfaro, Ryan Cordell, Jose LeClerc, Samuel Wolff And some other interesting guys with value: Preston Beck, Victor Payano, Kellin Deglan, Michael De Leon, Christopher Garia, Chad Bell Man was that team loaded... (Steve Givarz)
2013-02-05 13:00:00 (link to chat)	If Hanser Alberto was in another organization, like the White Sox, would he be a more attractive prospect? (Ray from Minneapolis)	Yes. But then again, I might be considered a good prospect in the White Sox org (Jason Parks)
