guyhaha 28 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 https://twitter.com/MLBPipeline/status/1117964412600475648 He is 1st rd pick of Mariners (14th overall) in 2018. After the draft, he shut down for the last season due to mononucleosis. It seems there are no challenges for him in A level. He should be promoted soon. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Strike Three 82 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 There is no prospect that I love more given his price (free agent) in deep dynasty leagues. Picked him in every league after his first start and couldn’t be more excited. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ST. STEVEN 4,392 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Thanks for getting his thread going! I have been meaning to for weeks now... Stuff looks great in the early going, very exciting pitching prospect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MathieuVirtuoso 138 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I'm having a REALLY tough time picking between him and Daniel Lynch. I like Gilbert a lot though, has all the makings of a potential 1/2 if he pans out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ST. STEVEN 4,392 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Promoted up to High-A and the Cal league, should really be a telltale sign of where he's at... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LarrysBraves26 18 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Checking back in on Logan and as of today 8 June hes at A(Adv) doing great with more than a K per Inning. Line reads 2.32 ERA, 31 innings with 40 K's and 6 walks. Nice ratios. Hitter hitting .194. This dude has serious tools and is off the radar in most leagues. I say that because you can get him for not much in trades. GRAB HIM NOW fellas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rasto21585 264 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 He’s available as well in my dynasty league. Do you rank him ahead of Edward Cabrera or Deivi Garcia? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I believe he'll be pitching in the majors sometime next season and has a chance to be elite. This season Cabreras changeup (3rd pitch) has improved a lot, which improves his chances of remaining a starter and hopefully hitting his ceiling. He looks legit tho this year. Garcia, who I LOVE his stuff, is gonna have to prove he can actually maintain a starters workload at his size (5'9). He still hasn't proved he can pitch deep into games and has never pitched more then 74 innings in a season. Edited June 9, 2019 by JakeSarna 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There are so many young starters having great years and it's really difficult to rank them in a meaningful way. I would add Balazovic to this list too; Muller is showing his talent. Grayson Rodriguez has come on very strong. Justin Dunn is having a great year. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MathieuVirtuoso 138 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Logan Gilbert with another phenomenal outing. He is the model of dominant consistency right now in the minors. There aren't a ton of pitching prospects I like more than him, he's severely under-ranked by just about everyone. 64 IP, 2.11 ERA, 0.95 WHIP, 88 K/13 BB between A and High A.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What’s the confidence level on this statement? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pan55 86 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 I like Gilbert a lot, but the Ms won't compete till 2021 at the earliest. 2021 is when I expect his ETA. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ST. STEVEN 4,392 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 FYI: Gilbert was promoted from High-A Modesto to Double-A Arkansas on Monday, Modesto radio broadcaster Keaton Gillogly reports. Gilbert will be joined in Arkansas by two of the Mariners' other more highly-regarded prospects in right-hander Ljay Newsome and catcher Cal Raleigh. The 22-year-old Gilbert, who began the season in the South Atlantic League before making the jump to High-A, turned in a 1.73 ERA and 1.03 WHIP over his 12 starts with Modesto. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's his plus ability to command all his pitches which plays them all up. hes a pitcher who doesn't look like he belongs in the minors. i really believe that if he didn't pitch in a small school/conference [[[having mono after he was drafted didn't help either]]] they would have debuted him from A advanced from the start. he was just extremely polished coming out of college. and college draftees with plus control tend to move extremely fast thru the minors. i just want to add that the mariners drafted another Logan Gilbert this year in George Kirby. i just love pitchers like Gilbert [[[Kirby]]] and if gilbert stays healthy i have no doubt hell be a staple in all star games along with the potential for CY.

LoGo 412 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 FYI, shelved for the rest of the season. Great debut year for the kid. "The Mariners are shutting down RHP prospect Logan Gilbert for the remainder of the 2019 season. Advice: Gilbert was able to throw 135 innings in his first professional season, and to say it went well is an understatement. The 22-year-old posted a 2.13 ERA at three different levels -- 2.88 once promoted to the Texas League -- and he whiffed 165 hitters against 33 walks. Gilbert is the top pitching prospect in the Seattle system, and has a strong chance of making several starts for the Mariners before 2020 comes to an end." 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
coldstream 2 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Has been looking pretty great this spring. It's obviously spring, but I really do like what I'm seeing from him. Last game he started against the Angels, 2 IP 3K 0 hits or walks 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Flyman75 5,097 Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Any scuttlebutt on whether or not Gilbert gets a shot this year? Or is it pretty well accepted that he won't be pitching for the M's this year? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brooklyn Dude 488 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Taijuan Walker to the Blue Jays. Might be the opening needed for a call up of Logan Gilbert. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
coldstream 2 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Looks like he will be up in late April/early May? Unless things change because of Kevin Mather's comments. He resigned yesterday. Wonder what's gonna happen now? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pan55 86 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Mather gave the players' union all the material necessary to win cases in court. If Gilbert and Kelenic have good springs, the Ms may be forced to put them on the MLB roster from day one, just to avoid the inevitable lawsuit. Mather is such a bone head. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There is irony in Mather coming out. It might actually have delayed when Klenic is recalled. They can't call him up after only two weeks since it will confirm what Mather said. He either will be on the OD roster or more likely not see MLB until mid summer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
