2018: Walker is not good enough and then leaves
2019: Samanic is a bust.
2021: Primo destroys his own career
2023: Wesley cannot even enter rotation when Jones is injured. Malaki is a little better, but is just backup level.
Five out of eight first-round picks don’t meet our expectations. It is why we lacks talent in our roster.
Walker was a role player at pick 17 or whatever. Not ideal but not horrible. Samanic was a bust but we countered that with keldon in the same draft.
Primo destroying his career couldn’t exactly have been foreseen, and in retrospect almost all of the selections in his range failed miserably.
Wesley was the 25th pick and a well known project player and you’re trying to make judgments about him now ? Cmon. We’ve hit on draft picks, especially late draft picks, at a more consistent rate than the vast majority of teams do.
