A few months ago I pulled his auto out of a blaster of Bowman and thought he was some no-name prospect. Now he's a top-ten prospect. Lol.

I don't know if its necessarily a question of buy or sell, but rather hold. I'm not a prospect expert though so don't listen to me too much :lol:

Definitely hold if you have any, buy if you can find the right deal, do not sell.

And to think when 2011 Draft first came out, there were 2 redemptions: Bubba Starling and Jose Fernandez. Everybody was ticked off once they saw that they pulled Fernandez's redemption

The Rise Of Jose Fernandez
The 2011 draft class was loaded with pitchers. While Diamondbacks righthander Trevor Bauer and the Orioles' Bundy deserve all the accolades they have received, no pitcher has skyrocketed up the prospect rankings quite like Marlins righthander Jose Fernandez.
The 14th overall pick in the draft a year ago, Fernandez has been overpowering this year. Before a recent promotion to high Class A Jupiter, Fernandez held down a 1.59 ERA in 79 innings in hitter-friendly low Class A Greensboro with 99 strikeouts and 18 walks. He doesn't turn 20 until July 31.
While he's not as good a prospect as Bundy, Fernandez may have been the most impressive pitcher at the Futures Game. He showed high-90s velocity (he touches that but sits lower as a starter) and a sharp breaking ball he used for a swinging strikeout against Rangers third baseman Mike Olt and then on a 3-2 pitch to get Athletics outfielder Michael Choice to swing through for his second whiff in a scoreless inning.
Scout after scout has come back buzzing after seeing Fernandez this year. Some even prefer Fernandez to Pirates righthander Gerrit Cole (the top overall pick a year ago) and Mariners lefthander Danny Hultzen (the second overall pick). It's high praise, but with his combination of electric stuff and the potential to rocket through Miami's farm system, it's well deserved.
