Is there anyone you haven't declared a bust? Rodriguez and Gunnar for sure. Got a feeling you were sour on Bradish when he had a 6+ ERA. Mullins when he was struggling this year I'm sure. Santander in one of his cold stretches probably.
Baseball is high volatility. Good players are going to have long stretches of playing poorly. Very few guys are slump proof.
If you wanna rant, rant away. This recent offensive BS is awful and worthy of griping. The year has derailed. "Everything sucks" is currently accurate. But I don't think that "everything will always suck" as you seem to think.
I don’t think i declared any “non prospect” a bust. Santander for example cannot be a bust.
As for actual prospects? Vavra. Not a bust.
Rutschman is a bum.
Was wrong on Gunnar, happy to admit it. Hope I’m wrong here too, obviously.

He's no more than Slide Jr. Yet everyone gives Slide crap (including me, can't stand Slide for the most part) and he's golden.

Probably will at this point. Didn't even block slide, though thought about it. May improve my day to day. Lol Grayson and Bradish are busts.

I’m happy for the serendipitous end to your evening.

I don't like the sky is falling defense mechanism that comes out whenever things are going wrong, but that's the only issue I have with Pedro and it's very surface level especially because he listens to (but doesn't learn from) others criticizing it. He brings a lot of good stuff.He's no more than Slide Jr. Yet everyone gives Slide crap (including me, can't stand Slide for the most part) and he's golden.
Sky is currently falling though, so hard to be too critical of Pedro and others who think it always is. Sometimes they're right, unfortunately.

1. Kimbrel better not pitch another game for the Orioles again.
2. If you think the crowd isn't booing KImbrel, Jim, you're senile....in fact, they are booing this entire fucking team right now. 10-0?! What the hell is wrong with you guys?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?

And since you brought up Rodriguez and Bradish. Both are clearly still in bust territory — obviously for different reasons.
not sure how you call G-Rod a potential bust when he's won 13 games and not having pitched for a month...dude deserves a little more grace than that.
