Goldstein's got a chat going today. Anyone want to know what TOLAXOR's first name is?

Kevin (St Louis): Why do you see Bruce as a better prospect than Rasmus? I understand that Bruce had success at a higher level and may win a batting title in the bigs, but he probably won't stick in CF and Colby has more power and speed. Could you compare the two?

Kevin Goldstein: I would argue that Bruce has a touch more power potential, while also being a better pure hitter than Rasmus, by a decent margin.


M50 (Hawaii): Did Jaime Garcia's shutdown due to elbow problems keep him off this list? A lefty under 21 who strikes out twice as many batters as he walks looks awfully good. What else is holding Garcia back?

Kevin Goldstein: The elbow issues did scare him JUST barely off the top 100 for me.


STEVE (St. Louis, MO): KLAW WAS HIGH ON MITCH BOGGS. DO YOU LIKE HIM? WAS HE CLOSE TO CRACKING YOUR LIST?

Kevin Goldstein: I LIKE MITCH BOGGS. BUT NOT AS MUCH AS KLAW. HE WAS NOT CLOSE TO MAKING THE TOP 100. OVER AND OUT.

Still going. I'll add anything else.

LMAO at him typing in caps like that.
