Nothing against Donny but JJW has way higher ceiling.

last week you said you would be pleased if JJ was a good as Saggese.

So which one is it?
You are supposed to be ignoring me. Get lost, trouble-maker !
You didn’t really say you’d be happy if JJW was as good as Sagesse…did you? If he’s not better than Donovan that’s a big disappointment too. JJW was paid 7 million just to sign due to his draft position. Anything less than a perennial all star is a let down.

"You didn’t really say you’d be happy if JJW was as good as Sagesse…did you?" It's another craviduce fabrication in his relentless attempt to degrade ole' Shady. craviduce needs additional reporting duties to occupy him from being such of a [shirt] disturber.

Crav doesn't need fabrication to degrade you, you do it to yourself, respectfully

Two possibilities.
Maybe.
Maybe not
Double the Vague
Exactly the opposite, of course.
Clear.
Concise.
Accurate.
Perfect.
There are 2 very specific possibilities.
I succinctly identified both.

Kurtz?

You've got to be kidding if your bar for JJW making an "impact" is:

36 HR
86 RBI
.290 .383 .619 1.002
173 OPS+

Melville, your posts are usually more specific and make some degree of sense. But this is far out there.

I get your But, hopefully, Wetherholt can make a huge impact on the Cardinals offense even without Kurtz' lofty numbers.

I think he projects more like Jacob Wilson. He won’t hit a ton of HR at Busch III.

And he should be the best hitter on the team once he gets acclimated to MLB.

But he's not a "Kurtz" type hitter, think Chase Utley as his ceiling.
