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.

So if we have everything in order and I'm not mistaken, it looks like only two picks will be dissolved right now - Gibbers' last two picks. You can still trade draft picks or prospects between now and the draft, and even during the draft, but there just has to be an equal # of minor league assets moving both ways. Not a lot of administration work this year at the cutdown deadline, but in future years it will be a flurry. I expect each team to cut several prospects next year, and the cutdown deadline will also serve as a prospect promotion checkpoint.
-
One of Quentin, Ethier, or Nava is eminently available for a starting pitcher. Prices vary but I'm not exactly sure how. Would also deal one for a prospect I like or a good pick, I suppose. Or anything that helps me.
-
It's boggling my mind right now that he's even in the picture. The highest you even see him going in recent mocks is like, 7th to Boston. I've seen him as low as 12th. It could actually happen.... and it would be GLORIOUS.

Latest BA mock by Callis has the Jays taking.... Clint Frazier link

Jose Reyes a week away from rehab assignmen

One game in Dunedin should be sufficient -
Well, for one thing, Juan Perez is a piece of s***.

Probably just the team that looked like absolute horseshit all year, in conjunction with the endless media distractions.
