SoxAce Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 (edited) Victor Torres. Another catcher but with upside. Gonna be 19 in the couple of months. From Puerto Rico. Edited June 5, 2019 by SoxAce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenericUserName Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 I like it. Plus speed, elite bat speed metrics, good arm strength and pop times. https://www.perfectgame.org/Players/Playerprofile.aspx?ID=394663 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold's Leg Lift Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Brubaker. Wasn't that the name of the catcher in that awful baseball movie. Yes I'm going to punch myself in the face for knowing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenericUserName Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Also listed as one of the top 5 players from PR in the draft. Here is the write up: Quote The teenage Torres might be one of the best defensive catchers overall in the Draft. Torres is known for his outstanding throwing ability, and he’s very athletic behind the plate. He’s made strides offensively and there is some upside to his game, but for now, Torres is known as defense-first player. But that could change as he grows and develops. Torres has committed to Northwest Florida State College. https://www.mlb.com/news/five-puerto-rican-players-to-watch-in-2019-mlb-draft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold's Leg Lift Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 The Pirates took Jase Bowen. He's a fantasic athlete. I think he's going to Michigan St to play WR. White lightning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Damnit, Dbacks got Avery Short. He was someone I targeted with our picks today. Apparently he is the most advanced HS pitcher in the draft. Indiana kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Man I missed the first two picks. Anything on our 12th rounder? Also really glad we are talking about summer catch. I love movies where they need to show you how funny they are by constantly having the characters laughing at each others jokes a lot.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Sabouri just got drafted by the Mariners. Teammate of Vaughn. I saw him pitch a little bit and he has a NASTY slider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold's Leg Lift Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Even with that giant pool it will be interesting to see if the D'Backs can sign him. They only took 2 college Sr's in the top 10 and Louisville commits want all the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
