You can use both you're wording and baseball. In both respects you're off base. He's not a bonafide/good starting pitcher. How would you classify him as pitcher, without using the "bonafide" as a term? Is he good in your eyes right now? For the last time, bonafide in this sense means he's a big league starting pitcher. I'm not saying he's Yu Darvish, I'm saying he's a capable big league starter, which is massive if you knew what I know about his development and how much of a challenge it's been. I don't have gross expectations of a fifth starter who is 23. Capable, meaning he can possibly have a good outing, but inconsistently. He's inconsistent as all get go at the moment. I also know about his struggles, and that's why I'm pulling for him, but he is who is right now. Not a reliable starter. I guess he's fine for a fifth starter, at this point, but nothing else until he develops more. To me, bonafide means solid, consistent. He's not a solid, consistent starter at this point. He's where he should be, and that's at the 5th starter position. Hopefully, he grows into being a more consistent, and actual bonafide starter in the near future.

This isn't public information, so, no, you don't. I don't care about "inconsistent"....so might as well get that out of the way. I look at numbers, not myths and opinion. I know that pitching development is not linear and I wouldn't expect "consistency" from any young pitcher. You're talking in circles, so I'll leave it at that.

Here's a fact. I can tell you that you don't know me very well, so don't underestimate what I may, or may not know. You may not care about inconsistency, but you don't matter when it comes to that. Consistency is what all sports athletes try to achieve, and I don't mean consistently bad.

First publication to rank Snelling, who I mentioned was not far away from ranking status. Salas is in the top 40 in three of the four major ranking groups, with Pipeline sure to follow when they update next.

Dylan Lesko threw to live hitters yesterday in the desert. 35 pitches in total. Looked fantastic. He's close to making his pro debut. Highest upside arm in the system, by far.

Dylan Lesko promoted to Lake Elsinore. Good. Get him hooked up with Ethan Salas early and often. Padres of tomorrow, today.

Almost exactly a year after trading Mackenzie Gore (in the majors), CJ Abrams (in the majors), James Wood (top five prospect), Robert Hassell (top 100 prospect) and Jarlin Susana (highly regarded pitching prospect) for Juan Soto, the Padre farm system is ranked #12 by FanGraphs and #11 by Bleacher Report.

How many in the farm system will get traded?
