Anyone able to get the John Sickel's chat from BA? Please post it.

I am wondering why guys like Dumatrait, Guevera, and Rosales aren't on this list.

it certainly shows how crappy our system is that our only top pitching prospect at AA or above has a 5.14 ERA and a 1.54 whip

Booker would have been on this list if we kept him. I really wish we did too. But so many names that are not listed here that could be. I really think there are plenty of bats that were better than Votto this year. Even with Sarasota alone, Votto was the 5th best hitter. Moran, Ruiz, Hime, and Dickerson all had better seasons at the plate this year. I think this is a bad list and it does not showcase some of the better talent.

Booker is too old for them to list as a prospect IMO (isn't he 29 or so?). I hope we bring him back though for a chance at the team or at least AAA filler.

[redsrbetter]

Me too definitely. I really think this team needs a big surprise in the bullpen and we should have one with the likes of Wagner, Coffey, Belisle, Simpson and hopefully Booker. Would be real nice to get him back.

agreed....would love to read it, although I dont think Sickels was the one doing that chat. I dont even think he works for Baseball America anymore.

Booker doesn't have anything near major league stuff.
