I would guess yes.

Jays 2nd rounder - Khal Stephen Mississippi State (MS) USA P R/R 4YR JR 6' 4" 215lbs Stephen served as a high-leverage reliever for Purdue as a freshman before becoming the Boilermakers' No. 1 starter as a sophomore. Following a strong summer in the Cape Cod League, he transferred to Mississippi State and has improved throughout the spring. His Draft stock has risen accordingly and he could sneak into the top three rounds. Stephen's fastball operates at 92-94 mph and touches 96, but it's most notable for natural carry that allows it to miss more than its share of bats. His best secondary pitch is a solid mid-80s changeup with significant fade. He also possesses a pair of average breaking balls with similar movement, favoring his mid-80s slider over his upper-70s curveball. Few college pitchers can match Stephen's feel for four pitches. He has the ability to get in-zone swings and misses as well as chases on each of his offerings, and he commands his fastball particularly well. He lacks a true plus offering but has a high floor as a No. 4 or 5 starter.

Nope, full 2nd round, Comp Round B and 2C is being done tonight. It's rapid fire though for round 2, a pick every minute.

Another reach for Milwaukee, not sure what their end game is here.

Slade Caldwell did not skip leg day.

All the talking heads thought he would go higher. It seems there was some pre-draft health thing that came up with him (they didn't say what) and thought he'd slip a bit, but not to 20.

Will be interesting to see his bonus amount I think.

I have no issues with Trey as the pick, love it.

Astros take a Texas kid.

im guessing he moved to the states pretty early on in life. That may explain the slow ascent through high school

First Canadian goes to the Phillies at 27

A 6'2 lefty that throws 98 and still hasn't turned 18? He would have been a solid pick at 20. The guy we got is pretty great also.

Not when the Jays picked... he was the highest ranked guy that hadn't been drafted yet.

interesting pick by the Yankees, seems early on a guy with his health history

mlb rankings dont take commits into account for their rankings as far as i know. Caminiti would have been a good pick too, but.. I think it's obvious that where he landed, and the complete lack of surprise on both his face and the Braves draft room, that a big overslot deal is on his future.

Atlanta gets Caminiti

Nice helium pick by the Dodgers. If that kid develops even average pop he could be really really good

I agree if there was a chance to sign him. But taking a guy that you know won't sign is foolish the way the draft is set up. But if he goes to Baltimore.... I may cry

The extra pool money from pick 136 may come in handy there.

4 year college guy ... i would guess he's good enough for Vancouver, but that may depend on whether he has the right visa.

I would bet that Caminiti already has a pre-draft deal done with someone that has a lot of picks and draft pool to spend. My guess is Cleveland or Milwaukee

Cant really argue with a top 11 talent being taken at 20. Trey Yesavage, 6'4" 225 "East Carolina will have a pitcher selected in the top two rounds for the third time in four Drafts, with Yesavage following in the footsteps of 2021 first-rounder Gavin Williams and 2022 second-rounder Carson Whisenhunt. A reliever as a freshman, he moved into the Pirates' rotation last spring and was a consensus second-team All-American. He dominated as a junior, finishing among NCAA Division I leaders in ERA (2.02, fourth), strikeouts (145, fifth) and opponent average (.154, second) while establishing himself as a top-15 pick. The American Athletic Conference Pitcher of the Year, Yesavage has a quality four-pitch arsenal highlighted by a mid-80s slider/cutter with more depth than lateral movement. His fastball parks at 93-95 mph and peaks at 98, overcoming a lack of life with plenty of carry from a high arm slot. He also has a low-80s spike curveball and a splitter with similar velocity, and both miss bats as well. More physical than athletic at 6-foot-4 and 225 pounds, Yesavage has some effort in his delivery but it doesn't prevent him from throwing strikes. Improved fastball command has keyed his success in 2024 after his heater got pounded at times in the past when he didn't locate it up in the zone. He now looks like a mid-rotation starter after refining the consistency and control of his stuff."

Hard to say, the top ranked picks are all pitchers, but there's some good hitters still around also. So hard to say what they'll do right now given what the guys just said about Trey Yesavage having medical questions, and Schmidt straight up pulling out.

Its f***ing fantastic

They may pass on a HS arm, but it won't be because of Barrera.
