  1. No offense to you guys and all the work I'm sure you guys, and every publication does, but these drafts are such a "who knows" typically, and this year was bound to be even more absurd.
  2. The only player I really would be excited about from the gate. Doesn't mean other guys won't be great, I just really like Ed the player and Ed the kid.
  3. I just think when the only negative you can find on a player is physical stature, and Meyer isn't abnormally small by any means, you have a guy that's gotta a better chance of not of making it.
  4. I couldn't care less; the guy is elite of elite. I'm not going to give the dumb Pedro comp for all 6'0 pitchers, but he's Rich Harden. If he breaks down like Harden, oh well, but if he stays healthy the guy is elite.
  5. No MLB mocks have any idea what they're doing. Not a shot at them, just the nature of the industry and the draft.
  6. WAR has a 1B problem. The 1B penalty is just wrong. For example; if you don't think Freddie Freeman is a top 30 player in baseball year in and year out, I have no idea what to tell you.
  7. No one breaks down mechanics, approach, a swing and video as poorly as Harold Reynolds. Gotta love it.
  8. Ed Howard will go to the Rays or the Dodgers and will excel. Life sucks.
  9. Given that 1 good player will make this a great "draft," I'm with you here.
  10. I'm against Harold again on someone; he hates Nick Gonzales, claims he benefits from shit competition. It's nonsense. The kid can play. He's a top 5 player in this draft for me. Respect your thoughts though Harold.
  11. I love how people show the WAR leaderboard for RH 1st baseman drafted in first round, and say they're bad picks... Or, maybe teams could have actually drafted the elite hitting 1st baseman? Teams missing and whiffing on the picks doesn't make the position a bad pick.
  12. For arms, this is more of a durability issue being 6'0 or shorter as a starter. I think it's nonsense at the top of the top of the talent pools, though.
  13. Hilarious that Vaughn is better than Torkelson and yet Torkelson is easily 1-1 because he MIGHT POSSIBLY POTENTIALLY COULD play LF MAYBE. Baseball teams have become so much smarter, yet still have weird stupid rules for prospects.
  14. Bring Ed Home, Sox! Do the right thing.
  15. Yeah, he's a blank slate. From a development standpoint, that's a dream come true.
  16. I still wouldn't take Bitsko - wouldn't touch a high school righty in the first round personally. I'd just rather he than Abel. I really don't care much about peak stuff in high school - rather you peak later as a pitcher personally.
  17. The extra year meaning his personal development. Bitsko is 17 years old. You basically have him for his senior year of high school professionally to develop as you wish. He's also a year younger physically. I'd much rather have the kid I can create younger with a great build. ALso, Detmers is Patrick Corbin comp wise; it's stupid how similar they are imo.
  18. I hope it's Howard, but I think there's a 0% chance we draft Howard. I hope I'm wrong.
