Taking the suspense out of the draft...

Ok witH WCJ over MPJ. As I said I think MPJ is overrated as a prospect even when healthy. However I wouldn’t mind taking on Faried’s to contract to move up if that was the price.

It’s crazy how we know more what’s going to happen with the NBA draft than the MLB draft. My exictement for the draft has been greatly reduced in the last 24 hours.

Also, he isn't a very good ball handler or playmaker at all. The KD comparison is way off for MPJ. I hope a team before us takes him.

It's not the teams, 4 of those 5 teams are in rebuild. Only reason Atl or Dal is willing to trade down is there aren't much difference between talent between 3 to 6 or 3 to 7 range, so they are fielding for an offer that will entice them to move down. I hope we can somehow get Doncic and Bamba, but am 80% sure we're ending up with Carter and Hutchison.

It depends on what the Bulls value. For example Carter doesn't project to be the same caliber of defender that Bamba is, while he might have a higher floor on the offensive end. I honestly don't think we will part of future picks to move up to 4th, especially since Memphis's primary motive is to move Parson's contract. I think it's justifiable if we swap Felicio and Parson's contract to move up 3 slots.

Reports over last few weeks has Bamba stock rising and MPJ stock falling, with concerns around his health, athleticism, and offensive ceiling. I for one wouldn't be upset if we take Bamba over MPJ.

Nia wasn’t full heel then. That segment could have work with any well established heel is what I’m saying, i.e. Carmella or IIconics. But of course Alexa Bliss gets all the credit so what’s new.

Please. IMO last night's segment was all Ronda. She's dubbed as the baddest women and she showed exactly why by doing things you have not seen any woman done before.

Based on Robert's IG post, he has been promoted to WS.

Note Felix Mercedes has been converted to a pitcher. This is surprising because he was actually pretty good when he played the last 2 years.

My bet is on Alexa Bliss to win the next Royal Rumble, even if she is already the champion.

Good on both so far

LOL The WS batting order looks like it's reversed of the beginning of the year. What the heck is Omar experimenting?

I was kind of expecting Delgado to be an under slot signing since he was an under the radar pick. With that said, I think we can now rule out possibility of HS signings in the latter rounds.

Only thing I can find on this kid was actually on Soxtalk posted by GenericUserName, that he was signed last Feb, and wasn't even a $300K signing. But it's also interesting that the team has batted him 3rd since day one, despite the fact that he's barely 17, which shows that the organization is pretty high on him. He's struck out on the first AB of the season, and struck out for the 2nd time today. That's 42 PA's without a strikeout, pretty impressive even for DSL.

Jose Rodriguez down in DSL might be a real thing. Kid just turned 17, and his bat to contact % is .... Madrigal-esque.

Good info. I've seen this document float around a few times, but forgot who authored it.

So is Tyler Johnson. Our picks 3-10 from last year (save Abbot) has been pretty impressive.

A rare for 6-0 for the farm tonight. Ws across the board! Great time for Basabe to come back alive. He should be ready for AA after surviving the slump.

Cleveland has no cap space or whatsoever. Only hope they have is to deal the 8th pick to a rebuilding team for their star player, maybe guys like Blake, Kemba, or Marc Gasol. To do that, they need to have commitment from Lebron that he's staying.

I think the Heuer signing bonus and slot value is mixed up with Perez's.

Sale for 12 K's. Over or under?

I wonder if there are more interesting guys throughout the system than usual has led to us picking this many HS kids vs org filling college guys. The other explanation is we're trying to establish relationship and get them acquainted with our organization to help with future negotiations. But I honestly haven't seen that leading to anything in the past.

I wanted to say Kyrie has gotten better after playing with Lebron, but I took a deeper look at the stats and that wasn't really the case. He was basically the same player the first 3 years with Lebron as he was before Lebron. Then he exploded last year, but he was able to maintain that level of play and even increased his efficiency this year in Boston. So I guess I haven't found a good example to dispute this.
