Good story about the scout who recommended the Rays acquire Arozarena. It highlights a point I was trying to make on another thread. Assessing players is so much more than slash stat lines or even Statcast results. it is a shame so many scouts are being let go across the game.
If you want to read more about J.D. Elliby, the Rays scout who wrote in his report about Randy Arozarena: "Definite acquire" and "confident in-game flair.”https://t.co/UvlFgHKVPd
