A player like Pastorincky is not a 5 tool player (i.e. Snider is not a 5 tool player either and he was our best OF prospect).
I'm not sure what your point is. I just heavily defended the acquisition of Gose based on stats, the one thing people were using to criticize him. Unless I'm misreading your tone or direction.
