Yeah, I mean if he shifts to 2nd...if you have a LH 50-55 hit and power 2B with solid D that would be fine and playing at the rate his HR totals should be OK with his pull tendencies. Maybe high teens? IMO, between him and Montgomery one of them hopefully should stick at SS.

This guy actually seems like he has some real upside...hopefully he develops a third pitch and is OK post surgery.

First thing I thought of.

Boston again...lulz

Everything from here on out will be low ceiling, close to MLB ready. It's all about saving their asses on the cheap. Long term thinking is out the window.

Sigh.

They need to trade for Rushing ASAP. Send Giolito to LAD now.

Someone said at this point Hahn is hijacking the thing and the whole concept is short term thinking for self preservation with high floor low ceiling guys that they can move up to the big club fairly quickly on the cheap. Makes sense....RH can tell JR "Hey look yeah the rebuild failed but I am ok with only 130-140m payrolls the next few years and we can still be a semi competitive club to keep the stands relatively full in a s%*# division with a bunch of average MLB regular picks, so can I keep my job?"

Wolters

They need pitching now.

Yep.

Boom!

Fucking bullshit

Dammit

Call up Teel's agent and get a deal done, Rick.

Sox could get Teel now possibly

Guys I wanted go 8 and 9.....ugh.

I wanted Mitchell...dammit

Ugh....weak.

I prefer Mitchell if we go HS.

Dollander, Taylor or Mitchell please.

Thank you, Jimmy. The vibe I get from that is: 1. If Dollander falls we will take him. 2. Taylor is the college bat if you go strength of the draft approach and he is there. Also checks various boxes, ie LH savage, could play 3B or even 2B. 3. Mike Shirley prep love go for the jackpot pick like Montgomery/Schultz is Blake Mitchell. And I've read we have scouted him heavily too. If you could secure a legit LH bat that definitely can stick behind the plate at catcher which it seems he can with his arm, that would be huge. Yes, there is risk for prep catchers but it seems to be reduced with him. 4. Underslot save money to spend in other rounds (ie Wolters in 2nd) pick....Yohandy Morales.

Move the savage to Birmingham

I want Rushing as the main piece from LAD. I wouldn't trade with TB because anyone they agree to part with will turn to s%*#, although to be fair we have a Ph.D in fucking up a young players development on our own, even without Tampa trying to sabotage us.

Why wouldn't they trade Giolito? They can't afford him and even if they could only a moron would re-sign here and he isn't a moron.
