Regardless of who the prospects are, Carr will compare them to Ruth, Mays, and Aaron

Obviously there are a lot of things crappy about 2020, and even baseball in 2020, and certainly one of those is not being able to see how prospects like Moniak would have developed this year.


Moniak was recovering from a knee injury in Clearwater, apparently.

$4.5 million, not sure there's any level of heroics that would trigger that expense next year
