And is it 1? Because both Carson Smith and Dominic Leone should be in this bullpen. Over Biemel and Wilhelmsen. But, alas, they need more "seasoning".
There is value in an organization moving pieces along in an orderly fashion, promoting by level based on performance, step by step. It lines up the rewards with the hard work and effort. I get it.
