Wasn't TJ, I don't know what the exact injury was but he threw a pitch and his arm popped out of his shoulder violently during the pitch. Probably the worst pitcher injury I have ever seen.
Yeah Colmenarez got a decent bonus, it was also the July 2, 2019 signing class which was extremely cursed with inability to play, but year that is like a 5th to 10th round pick type guy and if we are going to start counting each of them as a big loss then the number of failures piles up quickly.
More kids are going to opt for college not just because of minor league contraction (also there is now no complex league after the draft), but with the draft now only 20 rounds there is less opportunity unless you are a top 5 round type talent.
