Concern about Royce Lewis?

[Mr. Brooks]

He is not super young in my opinion. He is 20 years old in High A. Young, is Heliot Ramos in High A at 19. Young is Luis Patino who doesn't turn 20 until Nov. 22 in AA 23 in AAA and 24 in the majors. Seems pretty normal.

Yesterday he was 19... in high A.

Yesterday he was young like your examples, today he's old?

You're making a lot of assumptions buddy. And don't straw man me. I actually said I was no expert...exactly that. I think go back an d look if you care to actually read and gain insight without being a compete jerk. 

 

I don't know ages? What gave you that impression? I'm well aware of the course of a minor league player. High school draftees at 17 and 18 typically get assigned to Rookie league  or short season A. That begins in late June. College players are typically 20-22  They typically will start in Short A or if there's room and they're advanced, they'll join an A or A+ club while few visit the rookie league.

 

Do I have anything wrong there? If so please explain. 

 

Try not to lie, and straw man me. Try to actually read through. Be smart. 

Ah, Gordon. It's impressive that you figured out that 17 and 18 year olds get assigned to the rookie leagues or short season A ball. I'm sure following minor league baseball religiously taught you that. So far you've given some pretty (in many people's views) dubious opinions with faulty logic while screwing up the some pretty basic facts about the player you're critiquing. Can't blame people for not taking you seriously, Gordon, when you act like that.
