Time to realize Zach Neto is HIM !!

[No Roles]

    As someone who has taken many shots from most of you on Zach Neto's value; at some point you have to realize me as a WOMAN can scout talent too !  All that matters is we have to sign Zach Neto to a long term contract this offseason no matter what it takes, because he is a possibly a top 10 all around player already at 23 years of age ! Everybody should be in on Perry or whoever is GM landing Neto many years so he can be our best homegrown player since Trout (which he is already) !

You and HaloRed need to get together.

Best to wait until Neto is first arb eligible (after 2026).

To the best of my knowledge, literally no one here has been down on Neto's value.  People have simply complained about the repetitious nature of your posting, especially as it relates to his position in the batting order.

Again, you never advocated for him to hit 2nd.  You constantly screamed about Schanuel hitting leadoff and how Neto would be better, even after I and others repeatedly pointed out that Neto himself said he wasn't ready to hit leadoff.

No one is upset that Neto is hitting 2nd.  I think it's great!  People on this message board generally seem to love him.

Neto is like my favorite player right now.

I know it's easy to forget he was just signed in 2022...all the Latin American born players are signed much earlier ! oh well nobody wanted Zach (even though he is Latin too) at 18 so he went to Campbell so we will take our good fortune for once !

I don't think anyone has been this hyped about extending an infielder since David Fletcher!

this is our best infielder (at least ss)of all time. Just enjoy what is present and the future

 

[No Roles]

All in all I was dumb to think Neto couldn't hit the vest spot in the mlb in the line up ! Even I didn't give enough cred !

He’s off to a great start to his career and I’m glad he’s doing well hitting second. He is not our best ss of all time.

No, he's not yet in Fregosi's league

0 for 5 tonight

Pfffffffft

[Second Base]

Top 10 player? No. Top 10 position player? Still no. Top 10 infielder? Eh, maybe an outside shot but probably not. A top 10 SS? Most certainly.

Neto is killing it right now but not sure how you see him as top 10. Top 25, yes, which is great.

I have no issue with your enthusiasm. I really like Neto and am encouraged by his development.

But, there is no way he's a top 10 all around player, and even at his position, if that is what you meant, he's probably just on the outskirts of the top 10...

There is no reason to offer him a contract until after 2025 at the earliest... even then, you still have him for four more seasons after that, so it's not necessary. He will have less than 2 years of service this offseason, so he won't be a Super 2 until after 2025, and then you have four arbitration years. He will be here until he is 28. 

And Perry is a subpar GM. He is good at drafting with high picks in the first round, (and the late round high school developmental picks since the draft. shifted to 20 rounds) and ok when it comes to selling Major league pieces at the deadline.

We've been talent starved for so long that every decent player we develop is the reincarnation of Mickey Mantle.

Yes I have corrected myself on what year he should be signed ! But when we do we need to lock him up till he is 30 ! Glad we are such a bad franchise that we can clearly see who will need to be paid in the fairly near future barring major injury.  

 

BTW I was buzzed when I wrote the topic fresh out of private jail...lol I can only watch Angels on the weekends which is more than enough
