Im with scouting 100% accurate
Projection systems have always had a man-crush on Ross. It needs to be lowered from his current power, but most of the systems have him with at least 20+ HR in a full time role.

He's improved every season of MLB pitching. Last year, he walked just 80 in 225 innings. I think he deserves a higher control rating then 11. I would also raise his stuff rating.

His personality says he's selfish, but everything I've read about him is the opposite. He's the leader of the pitching staff, and takes that role seriously. He's not someone I would consider a classic "selfish" player.

I'm not saying he's elite or anything, but he's knocking on the door and should be rated as one of the top 20 starters in the game.
Likewise, projection systems always hate Romero. I know he's outperformed it lately, but his FIP hasn't been great the last three years (xFIP better though). Needs a bump but will have to disagree on top 20 starter.
