I thought you would never ask! I think he has as big of an upside as anyone in this draft. Huge ceiling both as a pitcher and hitter. Apparently a very cerebral kid and his make up is off the charts. And he's a very sexy young man to boot. He probably enjoys a rum once inawhile too.

What are your thoughts on Spencer Jones?

Too late

Happy Spencer Jones gets drafted day everyone

And how many did he walk?

Will Holland

We're on round 10. I guess Jones will go somewhere from 11-20.

One more round until THE Spencer Jones get's drafted!

No BA information on this guy

A three-year starter for Cal, Eden broke out as a freshman and quickly took over the team’s starting shortstop job and hit .315/.361/.472 in 54 games during his first stint against Pac-12 pitching. He continued to start at shortstop during his sophomore season, but his offensive numbers fell off in a big way. Eden has moved off of shortstop and played left field and center field this spring, while starting to swing the bat again. Through his first 48 games, Eden was hitting .365/.434/.563 with eight home runs, though he has always struck out at close to a 20-percent rate. Eden has a strong arm and solid range at shortstop and could probably play the infield, though scouts think he profiles best in a utility role. He’s an above-average runner whose speed plays on the bases and in the outfield.

I douched

A draft-eligible sophomore, Morris has one of the more complete hitting approaches in the class dating back to his days as a high schooler, when he showed impressive barrel control and a contact-oriented look at the plate. He’s hit for high averages in both of his seasons at Virginia, but he’s filled out more physically and started to tap into more extra-base power in 2019. Morris’ swing is naturally suited toward hitting the ball the opposite way and into the left-center field gap, although he’s become a bit more pull-happy as he’s tried to hit for more power. Right now, he has a hit-over-power profile, but scouts believe more power will come in the future. Morris plays shortstop for Virginia, and he’s been fine thanks to a strong arm and high baseball IQ, but he lacks the first-step quickness and short actions necessary to handle the position in pro ball. A well below-average runner, Morris is likely better suited for third base or a corner outfield position, although a team high on his defensive ability might try to keep him in the middle infield at second base. Wherever he winds up defensively, Morris’ hit tool is his carrying trait. He has a strong track record of hitting in the ACC and a productive Cape Cod League appearance in 2018, when he hit .331/.404/.449 in 35 games.

Damn, should have went with Will Holland.

I'm working on a full write up. Will make a separate dedicated thread when done.

Yeah, the swing and stance need to be changed but he has big time talent. He looks like he's about to take a dump in the woods when he's about to hit.

Robertson has been one of Creighton’s best hitters for the last two years and raised his profile nationally with a strong summer in the Cape Cod League. He has a level lefthanded swing that is geared more toward hitting hard line drives more than driving the ball over the fence. But at a listed at 6-foot-2, 210 pounds, he has above-average raw power and will likely tap into it more in time. He has an aggressive approach, but his bat control keeps his strikeout rate manageable. He is a below-average runner and has average arm strength. He likely fits best in left field, which puts more pressure on his bat, but his performance this summer opened eyes.

Fingers crossed for my boy Will Holland in the 4th. BA had him going 11th overall to the Jays in their first mock! Then he forgot how to hit his Jr year.

Nah. I want a Mexican. It's 2019.

Pitcher, Pitcher, Athlete who can't hit. Hurl's ideal draft?

One of the fastest players in the 2019 class, Brown is an 80-grade runner who routinely posts sub 4.1-second home-to-first times from the righthanded batter’s box. With centerfield athleticism and instincts, Brown has tremendous upside as a defender in the middle of the outfield, tracking balls well with dynamic athleticism that will allow him to make plays other outfielders wouldn’t dream of getting to. Brown has average raw arm strength, but he needs to improve his throwing accuracy. Offensively, Brown is incredibly raw, and scouts believe he would be a two-year Rookie-ball player who you would need to teach how to hit. He has some bat-to-ball skills that he showed off with the Canadian national team against pro competition this spring, but he’s mostly a fastball hitter who has a line-drive approach and rarely elevates the ball. When he does, it’s with little impact ability as Brown has well below-average raw power in his 5-foot-11, 170-pound frame. A Texas A&M commit, Brown could be a player who teams prefer to see go to school, develop physically and prove he can hit. But if he does figure out the offensive game and takes the next steps, he has exciting upside and is one of the more impressive athletes in the class.

Rumor has it BTS is a huge fatty so you might be onto something

Does he rhyme with Bill Rolland?

I trust everyone will be pushing for Will Holland for our next pick? I think at this point there's no point in hoping for Mr. Jones as he's not signing at this point with the Jays

I like the pick though.

Unless you're a 6 foot 7 lefty who also hits bombs
