Jacob Wilson should safely be better than Nick Madrigal. As you acknowledge he's a SS not a 2B. Plus he is 6'2 vs Madrigals 5'8 so safe to say he has more physicality/projection than Madrigal. For me I'm kind of expecting a reasonable outcome to be a Donovan Solano hitting profile but with enough defensive status at SS that he earns 600+ PAs per year rather than the 350PAs Solano usually earns in a utility role.
The athletics are one of my sleeper teams this year I believe they will contend for a wildcard spot
John fisher will make sure it doesn’t happen
We got a shot at both the White Sox and Nick Madrigal in one podcast about the A's. Nice
A's will make the playoffs in 2025!
Idk bout that , maybe 27

His bat to ball skills are legit
I love the deep dives. Free content, but get a BA subscription.
Thanks. And we agree. Anyone who enjoys these would really enjoy a subscription.
Fisher is a disgrace to all of baseball.
