I can get over it...but please not McGuire. Meadows, Shipley, or Smith...come one!!!!

Trey Ball!!!! Yes. Now you guys don't have to kill yourselves and others. And we have a shot at Meadows!!!!

Meadows, Shipley, or Smith please.

He played 3b most of his junior year of HS. He switched to outfield this year.

Tidbits from the PG chat:

If anyone has questions they want answered in terms of prospects and the draft the guys at PG are conducting a chat right now here. http://www.perfectgame.org/Draft/DraftHQ.aspx

I think McDaniel reported it on twitter. There's a lot of wild rumors right now. The guys at PG are saying Stewart or Moran more and more possible at 1-1.

I think those 2 were high school pitchers.

I don't think Whitson signs, and Covey is too inconsistent for me and is going to want to get paid to make up for not signing 3 years ago so at least 500k you have to think.

Marlins are also being connected to Rob Kaminsky which would be huge for us I would think. Pushes more guys down.

Here's pretty much who I want in each round. 1st: Clint Frazier (OF), Kohl Stewart (RHP), Braden Shipley (RHP), Ryne Stanek (RHP), Phil Bickford (RHP), Austin Meadows (OF), Dominic Smith (1B), Hunter Harvey (RHP), or Trey Ball (LHP) 2nd: Riley Unroe (SS), Ryan Boldt (OF), Nick Longhi (1B), Myles Smith (RHP), Cody Reed (LHP), Jordan Paroubeck (OF), Devin Williams (RHP), or Clinton Hollon (RHP) 3rd: Jeremy Martinez ©, Andrew Church (RHP), Cal Quantril (RHP), Andy McGuire (3B), Tyler O'Neill (C/SS), Brian Navaretto ©, Ryan McMahon (3B), Jared King (OF), Wesley Jones (SS), Tom Milone (OF), or Jake Brentz (LHP) Round 4 or 11 and on: Stuart Turner ©, Chandler Eden (RHP), Edwin Diaz (SS), Jan Hernandez (SS), Malik Collymore (SS/2B), Christian Arroyo (SS/2B), Willie Calhoun (2B), Terry McClure (OF), KJ Woods (OF), Sheldon Neuse (SS/3B), Casey Meisner (RHP), Connor Heady (SS), Anfrenee Grier (SS/2B/OF), Dylan Lavelle (3B/2B), Silento Sayles (OF), Marcus Doi (OF), Wade Wass ©, Manny Ramirez Jr. (1B), Nick Banks (OF), or Jacob Hanneman (OF)

Scout.com's Mock Draft

My dream draft: 10. Clint Frazier, RF 47. Riley Unroe, SS 83. Tom Milone, CF / Nick Longhi, 1B 115. Christian Arroyo, 2B I doubt we don't take a pitcher, but that's a lot of guys with a very good chance to hit.

Not sure if it's been posted, but there's a couple of wild rumors floating around. One via Peter Gammons says the Rockies might take Dominic Smith with the 3rd pick. While there other from Kiley McDaniel (I think) says the Marlins are considering Rob Kaminsky with the 6th pick as Loria has personally attended a few workouts with him recently. Take it with a grain of salt though. Could be just smoke screens.

I love Crawford's tools but I worry a little about the bat. In the games I saw him play at many of the big events, he didn't impress me very much with the stick against top-level competition. If the bat translates to the next level though you have a potential all-star I would think. I think we could get Milone in the 3rd, and he would be excellent value there. I desperately want Unroe at pick 47 but there's buzz that either the Rangers or the Rays want him in the supplemental. He's a guy I really think will hit in pro-ball, and he's not short on tools either.

These are my preferences. Though I doubt we'll draft a Boras guy (Manaea, Stanek), which is a shame. If we can get Riley Unroe somehow in the second I'll be happy. He apparently wants 1.4mm though.

Not sure if it's been posted but here's our slot bonus break down. Round--Overall--Bonus 1---------10------$2,921,400 2---------47------$1,168,200 3---------83------$650,800 4---------115-----$446,100 5---------145-----$334,000 6---------175-----$250,100 7---------205-----$187,400 8---------235-----$156,900 9---------265-----$146,500 10--------295-----$ 136,800 Total - $6,397,800 + $255,912 (4% overage) If the Jays employ the same strategy as last draft (i.e. over-drafting college seniors from rounds 4-10 and signing them for around $5,000 each) they will have about $1,878,712 to play around with. I'm assuming they'll go over the bonus pool by 4% again and pay the 75% tax on overage to give them a little more financial wiggle room. That 1.8mm should allow them to get at least 2 pretty good talents that might fall, as every signing bonus handed out after the tenth round gets an extra $100,000 that doesn't count against the pool. So they could offer 1 guy 1.9mm or 2 guys 1mm each. If we do go with Hunter Harvey at 10 and he signed for say 1.5mm, then you can add another 1.4mm to the bonus pool.

I'm still hoping one of Frazier or Meadows falls to us, but short of that some of you guys might want to stay clear of any sharp and pointy instruments tomorrow night.

Yes. If not on the regional channel then likely Sportsnet One or the Score, depending on other content that may be on that day. Baseball America's mock draft

If we somehow get Frazier I will cry with tears of joy.
