Y2Jimmy0 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Dec 9, 2016 -> 02:25 AM) I'm hoping for Kyle Wright from Vanderbilt. He's 6'4 220, has a mid 90s fastball and a slider. Here's some video: Josh, I think Kyle Wright ends up in the top 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reiks12 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 QUOTE (beautox @ Dec 9, 2016 -> 12:18 AM) I really like Jake Burger, JJ Schwarz and Brendan McKay. I think it would be awesome to draft Jake Burger in '17 and Seth Beer in '18 the promos write themselves. I've read a lazy comp of burger to Bryant so we'll see. Anyone got a hot take on Beer? Trade for Pint and you would have the easiest and most fun marketing job the baseball world has ever seen. Beer Pint Burger We would be the most liked team in the league.

DirtySox Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 So it's time to resurrect this thread. College baseball kicked off yesterday as I'm sure many of you know. Brendan McKay of Louisville looked stellar on the mound and at the plate. Interesting 2 way player who could be drafted as either at this point. Bukauskas was legit, striking out 10 over 6. Faedo and Kyle Wright both underwhelmed in their debuts. Roundup link. Some interesting games on WatchESPN today. Alex Lange is pitching currently for LSU after being rained out yesterday. Top 2018 Draft prospect Brady Singer is going today for Florida as well. Schwarz will also be an interesting follow this season after his stock dropped considerably last year.

daa84 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 swing reminds me of Robin actually - i dont see the high effort long swing path that harper has... honestly - if you think this guy is a future everyday player (let alone an allstar) you have to do this rebuild all out. gotta do it the entire way - no reason in drafting 4th and missing out on the sure things (or at least the guys who are as close as possible). Love that college baseball is back. I watch as many vandy games as possible every year (usually about 25-30). been such a fun program to follow - legitimate omaha contenders every year and perennially have a guy projected to be drafted in the top 5 or so, and usually a couple in the top 15. This year is no exception - Jeren Kendall will be a top 3 pick. Not sure how well he projects to the next level though - does everything well, but nothing truly outstanding aside from speed. Could be a carl crawford type I suppose - but not sure how well his power projects with a small frame. Kyle wright should also be a 1st half of first round pitcher - big right hander with mid 90s fastball, good change, decent breaking ball. Team will really miss RHP Donny Everett who tragically drowned the day before regionals last year (was the top prospect who didn't enter the draft and went to college instead) - also will miss Hayden Stone whos career is over after 2 Tommy johns (was at one point projected as first round pick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if I'm a fan of McKay that early. Consensus is split on whether he's a pitcher or 1B. If you decide he's going in your lineup. You have to worry about the similarities McKay and Zach Collins have. Sox hope Collins sticks at catcher, but majority of the league and scouts believe otherwise. Could be a redundant pick with Collins/McKay ending up at 1B. Both slow and nonathletic. I know someone is going say you worry about 1B situation when both reach the majors and go from there. But you tend to do that with more high ceiling up the middle players that can possibly play multiple positions down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
