: : : : For all you guys trashing Scott Deal - He got drafted today in the 5th round. Now what've you got to say, huh?
: : : uhhh that Oakland is stupid?????
: : Wow, that sure sounded mature, lol. The whole Oakland Athletic organization is "STUPID"
: : Next time think of a better word becuase you sound like third grader when you say it.
: Deal's gonna get rocked if he goes with Oakland. He only has 2 pitches, and the slider doesn't work half the time, and his fastball will be meat to professionals. A 90 mph fastball is BP for the pros. And another thing, he's all over the place with his control. In the big leagues the players are smart enough to lay off that.
This entire conversation just proves that none of you have a clue about baseball. NO high school player goes to the Pros and dominates. PERIOD! Thats why they have minors????
Having the tools, time, seasoning and coaching creates good pitchers.
Scott has great tools and weather he chooses to go
to the A's organization or go to WSU He will continue to grow.
You either have 93 capabilities or you DON'T !
The fact here is that everyone that has responded about Scott on this website from the beginning doesn't and will never have the arm to even try. Jealous People!
Good luck Scott, I wish you well.
