beautox Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Looking forward to dreaming on Adley Rutschman, Bobby Witt & Shea Langliers, as other names rise with helium and find their way into the mix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 (edited) According to FG, which is the only one who has HS/NCAA combined: 1. Rutschman C/Oregon St. 2. C. J. Abrams, SS/GA HS 3. Bryson Stott, SS/UNLV 4. Corbin Carroll, OF/WA HS 5. Michael Bush, OF/North Carolina 6. Andrew Vaughn, 1B/California Other Players 9. Bobby Witt Jr., SS/TX HS 11. Shea Langliers, C/Baylor Admittedly, FG has been weird in their scouting reports lately, so take it with a grain of salt.

southsider2k5 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 No pitching in the top 6? That won't last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fangraphs wrote an article about the fact that they're devaluing pitchers just for being pitchers. Any pitcher that would have a 55-60 FV is automatically downgraded to a 45-50 just because they're a pitcher. They are now heavily biased toward position players being at the top. It is their philosophy due to attrition for pitching prospects. Basically, they buy into the theory that there is no such thing as a pitching prospect.

Yeah, but if I were a betting man I'd always bet on a pitcher going #1 barring a generational talent like Harper. Not saying I agree with it, but that's how it is.

Dick Allen Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Hopefully one of these HS SS is the next Manny Machado. He was a #3 pick. There are going to be some future all stars on the board when they select. I hope they get the right guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prospect treads on the main board get people who don't follow the farm spouting off nonsense and makes it less about prospects. I like having threads where people who want to talk prospects and know more about the farm and prospects. I spend more time over there then over here during the rebuild.

I'm in favor of just using the all-encompassing 2019 Draft Thread. The rest feel redundant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
