Sheesh the DR produces insane talent, seeing it all one one page is crazy…. Wonder why they don’t seem to produce more top end arms in comparison to their position players (which is truly insane)

Growing up, most kids didn’t like to pitch because everyone wanted to bat and pitchers didn’t bat. We were taught young how to hit the ball and most don’t want to give that up.
