Ginger Peach?

Estranged ex-lovers?

Emailed Gibbers. He said something about maybe being banned here, so perhaps he hasn't been following along with this thread.

Yahoo thread works the best since it bumps everyone's email as the draft moves along.

Fearless prediction: Chien-Ming Wang is going to pitch like a piece of s*** -
I said initially that we would start the draft on the 8th, so let's just stick to that. Jays_Fever can kick off the draft at midnight if he wants. We won't start clocking picks until tomorrow night though (let's say 5pm).

Read several scouting reports. Assume the consensus is something close to correct. Or watch video. He pretty much sits 95, 94+ the whole game there. Check out the breaking ball @ 5.26 Some other nice breaking balls towards the end.

Bickford just seems so underwhelming for a top 10 selection. Beede at #21 seems like a better prospect to me, hands down and in context, than Bickford.
-
This is actually a good point.
-
Did I f***ing do that? No.

Anybody upset about this one particular draft pick is a moron... But anybody NOT upset about the organization's affinity for arms / high school arms is an even a bigger moron. 10 Phil Bickford RHP HS 17 D.J. Davis (minors) OF HS 22 *Marcus Stroman (minors) RHP 4Yr 50 *Matt Smoral (minors) LHP HS 58 *Mitch Nay (minors) 3B HS 60 *Tyler Gonzales (minors) RHP HS 21 Tyler Beede (minors) RHP HS 35 *Jacob Anderson (minors) OF HS 46 *Joseph Musgrove (minors) RHP HS 53 *Dwight Smith (minors) OF HS 57 *Kevin Comer (minors) RHP HS 11 Deck McGuire (minors) RHP 4Yr 34 *Aaron Sanchez (minors) RHP HS 38 *Noah Syndergaard (minors) RHP HS 41 *Asher Wojciechowski (minors) RHP 4Yr 11/15 first rounders in this regime have been pitchers 8/15 first rounders in this regime have been high school pitchers It's pretty gross. Shooting yourself in the foot, basically. And their 2nd rounders: 5 high school pitchers, and Kellen Sweeney.

Manuel just said Bickford to Toronto... lol

Did they announce Frazier as a 3B???

Anybody like Callis, Law, etc. hosting a livechat during the draft? Links?

Beans = team of destiny

Syndergaard being good, I still wouldn't label as a "great concern". An arm is an arm is an arm, and an arm in A ball would be hard pressed by statistical likelihood to ever topple the balance of a trade for an MLB pitcher that was as dominant as Dickey in 2012. But when JPA is your starting C in front of arguably the best catching prospect in the game, and you choose to trade said prospect for a 38 year old pitcher, well... that is and likely always will be the gist of the swap. Getting Thole is certainly a point, but it's a small factor when viewing the thing in totality. There's no need for us to be so myopic, just because Toronto was.

Well, you'll probably make the playoffs. After that, it barely matters how good your team is.
-
At least this might bring back the runaway juggernaut that is realmins team

Rumoured 100 game suspensions being sought by MLB for all those Biogenesis names.
-
Did Dinger just sell you some tainted meat?
-
prospect cutdown deadline. It really didn't matter this year, but it will in future years.
-
I guess we should clarify for future drafts. Picks will be dissolved and disappear forever once the first pick in the draft is posted.
-
Certainly, if he wants to

Broons.
