Unfortunately, the Dinos have higher rated similar aged prospects at both 3B and C, making Horatio's place in the organization a little unclear.

I was ideally looking for a pitcher or lefty hitting outfielder, and one of the two "good" guys fit the latter bill more or less. However, given the "good", I expected 13p max, which together with his "amazing in the field" for a lefty didn't leave much potential for the other parameters. Besides, he was old for an international player and might be underdeveloped... I just had a bad feeling and went with the other guy (although he would be my umpteenth middle infielder in the system), and, boy, was that feeling right: http://brokenbat.org/player/113767 I didn't even know there were "good overall" players with 15p in the pot. Now if only we could make trades... I currently have three 15p future/current shortstops that are 25 or younger.
