No surprise.

Granted, it was a terrible throw, but Adams was caught daydreaming.

More and more, he just doesn’t look like a guy who’s ready for MLB.

That’s no surprise — we all thought he needed a full year in AAA. But it goes to show you can’t accelerate the timetable too fast on these guys.

The draft is monday and the main thing I’m excited about right now to distract me from hwo things are going in STL. Rosenthal and Jenkins both had very good starts today.

Just us thinking he’s signable isn’t enough if we are going to change our whole draft strategy just for him.
