He throws 99 and doesn't walk many. End convo...it's what you look for in a pick

ftfy. That was an ugly week GB. glad I had you for this week. I would have beat no one else.

So the Jays can draft him next year

SD and Miami right now....

they got to be contemplating trading him. I've been saying for a couple weeks now...they are the team that could re-tool and be better next year. They just happen to have the worst GM in baseball.

Yarborough gave up 2 in the 3rd, 1 in the 4th and 4 in the 5th. Gave up 1 walk and 1 hit in the 6th and 7th both of which were deleted with double plays. Who would have the balls to let a pitcher keep pitching after giving up 7 runs?

I like certain profiles, and in turn hate certain profiles. I hate "freak athlete, who will develop power over time" I like "makes great contact and hits everything on a line" I like "profiles to be one of the best bats but has no position". I hate "is a pitcher"

This one is amazing. Our good friends Bleacher report 2015 MLB Draft Grades Team Grade Note Arizona Diamondbacks B In need of a big-time playmaker, Dansby Swanson is their man. Atlanta Braves B Selected 11 pitchers out of 13 possible picks. Baltimore Orioles A- D.J. Stewart will become best OF prospect within two years. Boston Red Sox B- Andrew Benintendi will be a great talent one day, but the Sox needed pitching. Chicago Cubs B An extremely deep farm system just got deeper. Short on pitching prospects. Chicago White Sox B+ Pitching needed, pitching drafted. Carson Fulmer will be a very solid righty. Cincinnati Reds C+ With Devin Mesoraco developing into one of the best catchers in the MLB, why take a catcher at No. 8? Cleveland Indians A- The Indians might have gotten the steal of the draft by getting last year's top pick, pitcher Brady Aiken at No. 17. Colorado Rockies A With Tulo possibly on the way out, Brendan Rodgers will be his successor. A very good one. Detroit Tigers A- Beau Burrows and Tyler Alexander will help the Tigers, especially if they lose David Price. Houston Astros A The Astros got the second-best player in the draft at No. 2 with LSU SS Alex Bregman. Kansas City Royals B- Royals could have used one of two first-round picks to get an outfielder they will need very soon. Los Angeles Angels C+ Taylor Ward will be the starting catcher one day, but they did not address the middle infield situation. Los Angeles Dodgers A- The Dodgers need to develop depth in their farm system. This draft was a decent start. Miami Marlins B- Brett Lilek is just one piece of a rotation puzzle the Marlins are trying to put together. Milwaukee Brewers B+ Taking three pitchers in the first three rounds for a farm system with no arms is just what Milwaukee needed. Minnesota Twins B Tyler Jay had one of the lowest ERA's in the nation at Illinois. New York Mets C+ Without a pick until No. 53, the Mets were strapped to address their lack of offensive talent. New York Yankees B+ The Yankees needed starting pitching. The Yankees drafted starting pitching. Three arms taken in the first three rounds. Oakland Athletics C Taking two shortstops in the first two rounds won't help the outfield. Philadelphia Phillies B- The Phillies need a lot of help. Especially with pitching. They took two shortstops in the first three rounds. Pittsburgh Pirates A Kevin Newman will be the Pirates starting shortstop within two years. San Diego Padres C+ Not picking until 51 hurt the Padres chances to find an impact arm. San Francisco Giants D+ The Giants needed outfielders. They have no MLB outfield talent in the minors. They took arms and infielders in the first three rounds. Seattle Mariners B- Looking for help for Felix Hernandez in the future, the Mariners grabbed a pair of right-handers within 12 picks in the second round. St. Louis Cardinals B The Cardinals always find a way to mold whoever they draft into serviceable professionals. It will be no different with Nick Plummer. (Fun Note here...it was 3 through 5th rounds that the Cards got 4 players which have already made the majors) Tampa Bay Rays A- Tampa nabbed one of the best outfield prospects in Garrett Whitley. (J4L Texas Rangers B+ Despite missing out on good middle infield prospects, the Rangers picked a future No. 1 starter in Dillon Tate. Toronto Blue Jays A- The Blue Jays might have a dark horse by picking RHP Jon Harris out of Missouri State. Washington Nationals B Andrew Stevenson will anchor a Nationals outfield one day, but pitching was needed. Steals of the draft Daz Cameron, OF Brady Aiken, P

Moreso than the mocks, I'd love to see how well the post draft rankings have done in the past. They pretty much just say "these teams most drafted by our rankings".

f*** I hate agreeing with Alan, but Ticket to Ride is fantastic.

Because he know it wouldn't be an issue a day later. Didn't you see the interview where he said "LINEUPS are 100% on Charley" oh yeah it was the same interview.

MLB (admittedly this was pre-Callis) still had him ranked 28, and BA 23. I think everyone expected him to go day 1.

I'm confused and entertained all at the same time.

Trying to remember the "I can't believe they haven't been picked yet" guys by memory is tougher than I thought. Will have to bump the past threads 2015 Daz Cameron, Funkhouser, Matuella? 2016 Groome, Josh Lowe, Shawn Anderson?? 2017 Bukauskus, Faedo, Kendall?

How many of the players that have "dropped" have actually worked out? I think the players that people think were a reach tend to have a better track record. for the record I was on the you got to pick Andrew Vaughn over Adley in Fantasy (never in real life). Now I think it would be an egregious error. In 4 months we'll all be on someone else of course.

High schooler nominated for the first time ever is interesting, but seemingly wrong

Nothing

This is saying a lot. This might be Buck and Tabby's worst game ever.

ftfy. He's much better now that he's moved a bit north

This shall be ugly

Do not bring in Gaviglio

keep sending Luciano out there. Let him finish the game.

NCAA YouTube channel is supposed to pick them up. They did with Softball this year

Koreaboo of course.

Because they are 37-20, a 7.5 game lead and recently won a World Series with some of these players. Occasionally there has to be a human element to think of. Plus it's not past Super 2 deadline.
