: This is a chat.
|
| 12:04 |
: ZiPs really does not seem to like Andrew Vaughn despite all of the “most polished hitter” reputation he’s getting. What’s the issue?
|
| 12:05 |
: Well, ZiPS is not a scout and it’s going to be skeptical of most college players.
|
| 12:05 |
: Until they do stuff in the minors.
|
| 12:06 |
: And it wasn’t particularly enthralled by his minor league performance, which was largely walk-driven.
|
| 12:07 |
: Any takeaways from Mize’s first start?
