<p>I'm not talking about the MiLB roster. Just the MLB that so far has been filled with players from the MiLB roster that athletically don't look at all like some of the players I see sprouting up all over MLB these days. I'll even take Kole Calhoun of the Angels as an example. BIg. Strong. Fast. Smart. Strong Arms. Strong Intangibles that don't wilt under the pressure of adjusting to MLB, even the pressure of the playoffs. Some of this is development, but I haven't seen a single young position player come up the M's that has this combination of attributes, even if you limit it to just the physical ones. Where's the big, strong, fast M's player from Zduriencik's seven years that has demonstrated legit #Baseball skills (even if not fully developed)? Am I forgetting someone? I can't speak for what Zduriencik may or may not have been looking for. I can only judge him for the players he has brought up and given a chance at the MLB level. Even the ones that failed were not the physical and athletic specimens I have seen on these other young, successful teams. With Jack it was slow power types or fast slender types or Seager who could hit but not run, the plodder Montero, And if you add in the non-physical attributes the one word I would use to characterize Zduriencik young players is mentally brittle. All of 'em. That might be 50% development, but you can't discount that it might be a fundamental flaw in profiling players. Of COURSE Jack would sign a 5-tool player with can't miss skills if he was dropped in his lap. Anyone would. I agree development is a huge problem. I'm just saying that we need more than a development revolution. We need to see what's popping up all over the game and recognize it as a revolution like the West Coast offense was for #Football. The game is changing. We need to upgrade our vision.</p>
