Yup Robert’s going to have to really turn it on to get this one

This guy is throwing way too slow

Well he recovered pretty good in the derby at least

It doesn’t

Man Bo Bichette sounds like a little b****

Man I don’t even remember seeing the 470 footer

I dunno, Luis still had like 40 seconds left in his bonus when he won. It would have been like 30+

He needs to rest up

I wish he would bat left handed to get 1 to show him up

Fucking nice Robert, I didn’t think there was any way he was gonna catch him

I think he started too slow, lots of line drives the first 30

Robert about to get his ass kicked

Yeah it is

Oh man I forgot about that guy

I really said it more as a joke, and only because after I made the first Ichiro comment I went and looked him up and its crazy the difference. First 10 years was like 55 total WAR and the last 9 years was like 5 total WAR

Hey I never said Ichiro wasn't one of the best to do it.

86-88 MPH fastball, what the hell

Are baseball players getting crazy NIL deals? I only ever hear about football.

I think its crazy that you have Tim Anderson in 2013 and then it took them all the way until 2021 before they took another toolsy up the middle player. Lots of SP and 1B/DH, 2B, and C in almost a decade.

Yeah I know what you meant, there was just no way I was going to be able to put that together while trying to pretend to be working lol

Not quite what you were asking, but I went back and looked at who we took against who we could have taken only looking at round 1 and the very first comp round and this is what we passed up for one reason or another. I think we did quite well in 2021 and 2022 2013: Tim Anderson Passed: Aaron Judge 2014: Carlos Rodon Passed: Aaron Nola, Trea Tuner, Matt Chapman 2015: Carson Fulmer Passed: Ian Happ, Walker Buehler, Mike Soroka 2016: Zack Collins, Zack Burdi Passed: Josh Lowe, Gavin Lux, Dane Dunning, Will Smith 2017: Jake Burger Passed: Trevor Rogers? 2018: Nick Madrigal Passed: Jonathan India, Jared Kelenic, Logan Gilbert, Matthew Liberatore, Brady Singer, Nolan Gorman, Shane McClanahan 2019: Andrew Vaughn Passed: Riley Greene, Josh Jung, Corbin Carroll, George Kirby, Daniel Espino, Anthony Volpe 2020: Garrett Crochet Passed: Jordan Walker, Bobby Miller, Jordan Westburg 2021: Colson Montgomery Passed: N/A 2022: Noah Schultz Passed: N/A

Really, really good for 10 years and then pretty mid for the final 9 years.

Right, I didn't expect them to be up next season but more so sacrificing long term potential to try and hurry advanced players up to the big league team.

Hopefully its not a "Were having a bad season but we can rebound next season with these guys, lets see how quickly we can get some college players up to help in the next year or two" type of draft.

Doesn't sound like 1st or 2nd round pick was much of savings, so I wouldn't expect a HS
