Our top pitching prospect (IMO...even if most top 100 lists would disagree with me) Mike Soroka is killing it in AA as one of the few teenagers in the league. He leads the league in wins (10), ranks 2nd in ERA (2.38), 3rd in WHIP (1.02), 6th in IP (105.2), 7th in strikeouts (91) & among qualifying pitchers he's issued the 7th least walks (21). I can't find a site that ranks minor league pitchers in FIP/xFIP but I'm sure his 3.09 FIP & 3.14 xFIP would also rank among the top 5 in his league. If he continues pitching this way for the remainder of the season I'm sure in 2018 he'll be ranked as our #1 pitching prospect, opposed to Allard (who has looked outmatched, been issuing too many walks & lacking the ability to strikeout batters).
I still believe Allard has the highest upside among our current crop of pitching prospects but it may take longer for him to get adjusted. You can't forget that he's also only 19 and pitching at the level he is at his age, most pitchers would struggle. Soroka on the other hand probably has the highest floor among our pitching prospects.
Yeah, I notice a lot of sweet rarer cards from oversea sellers that are also priced nicely. You just have to be prepared to wait awhile to get them.

Very nice. I've purchased some nice cards from over that way too from eBay, including Japan and Korea. Shipping takes forever though and costs more but oh well.
