Day 3 begins now! Watch live here: https://www.mlb.com/draft/2021

He was talking about the celebrity softball game, haha. They aired it again after the derby. I actually watched the whole thing, it was pretty fun. The girl he's talking about (JoJo Siwa) is apparently a TikTok star or something but she was balling. Looked like one of the best players out there.

Fired for what?

I'm watching MLB Network and Ohtani just hit a 510 foot bomb in batting practice. It hit the Jack Daniels area in the 4th deck.

That concludes Day 2 of the MLB draft. 14 players remain out of the Top 78 by FanGraphs. 80 players remain out of the Top 250 by MLB.com. Will be back tomorrow with live tracking for Rounds 11-20.

The Athletics draft Reese McGuire's brother Shane at 278.

Blue Jays take RHP Hayden Juenger. 4 year Junior out of Missouri State. 6'0 180 LBS.

Big pick by the Jays here. High Schooler Irv Carter, Rank 118 on MLB. Was the #2 starter in the Calvary Christian rotation behind Andrew Painter. AGE 18 | DOB 10/09/2002 | THROWS R | BATS R | HT 6' 4" | WT 210 | COMMITTED Miami FASTBALL 55 | SLIDER 55 | CHANGEUP 45 | CONTROL 50 | OVERALL 45 Teams that have to play Calvary Christian Academy in Florida might think they’d be lucky if they didn’t have to face the school’s ace and potential top 10 pick, Andrew Painter. They’d be wrong, as the school’s No. 2 starter, Carter, would be the top guy in most other high school programs and is a legitimate Draft prospect in his own right. There are a lot of things to like with Carter, particularly his size, physicality and arm strength. The 6-foot-4 right-hander has a fastball that is currently up to 94 mph, but given his frame, scouts feel there’s more in the tank, with a consistent mid-90s fastball certainly feasible. He complements his fastball with a very good slider, thrown in the low 80s. He hasn’t needed it much, but Carter has shown some feel for a changeup, though it can get firm at times, up to 87 mph. Carter will change up his delivery, incorporating things like a Johnny Cueto-like turn-around, but he tends to be around the plate and should have average control once he commits to a consistent delivery. Given his size and stuff, the Miami recruit has reminded some of Touki Toussaint, who was a first-round pick from the area back in 2014.

I was just wondering why Christian Franklin was still available when the Jays pick came up. 21 year old OF, 52nd ranked prospect on MLB. Cubs just grabbed him.

Blue Jays take Chad Dallas. #210 on MLB.com. AGE 21 | BATS R | DOB 06/26/2000 | THROWS R | HT 5' 11" | WT 206 FASTBALL 50 | CURVEBALL 50 | CUTTER 60 | CHANGEUP 40 | CONTROL 55 | OVERALL 40 After Dallas came out of the bullpen to strike out 71 in 39 innings as a freshman at Panola (Texas) JC in 2019, Tennessee recruited him as a reliever. Instead, he became the Volunteers' No. 1 starter in his first year in Knoxville and helped pitched them to their first College World Series since 2005 this spring. He won eight of his 11 Southeastern Conference starts and beat Louisiana State with a career-high 12 strikeouts in the super regionals. Dallas added a mid-80s cutter in 2021 and it has become his best weapon, a plus offering that destroys right-handers both in the strike zone and as a chase pitch. His low-80s curveball has depth and grades as solid at its best. His fastball sits at 90-94 mph and can reach 98, though it features only modest armside life and doesn't miss many bats. While his 5-foot-11, 206-pound build isn't ideal for a starter, Dallas makes up for it with his ability to pound the strike zone and his dogged competitiveness. He'll have to find a way to get left-handers out to remain in the rotation as a pro, and his mid-80s changeup with some fade will need significant improvement if it's to become the answer. The rest of his repertoire and his mentality would fit well in a relief role.

They took a random named Owen Kellington. Was "Gatorade Player of the Year" in Vermont or something but wasn't on MLB.com's Top 250.

The "punting" begins.

Sounds like even if he doesn't work out as a starter they can turn him into a Cimber type reliever.

lol, I'd feel so much better if he got to the Jays and they passed on him because then I'd know they didn't like him for whatever reason. Always sucks when you like a player and they get sniped right before the Jays pick.

God damn it, Brewers take Binelas five picks before the Jays go lol.

Wow, Pirates having a monster Day 2. They used the savings from 1OA to get both BPA's in Solometo and Chandler. Shades of the Astros using savings from Correa to sign Lance McCullers Jr.

Yeah, the rule was originally made with the assumption that the Red Sox, Yankees and Dodgers would sign every free agent ever so they needed to take away from teams with so much spending power to create parity. The irony is that there is a huge amount of parity among teams that have signed major free agents in the last decade or so. The Tigers got Fielder, the Mariners got Cano, the Angels got Pujols and Rendon, the Phillies got Harper, the Padres got Machado, the Mets got Cespedes, etc, etc, etc. At this point it makes no f***ing sense to simply punish teams for willing to sign big contracts and giving cheapskate orgs like the Rays and Athletics even more of an excuse not to spend.

I've been wondering that all day. Makes no damn sense. Just give teams a compensation pick without taking one away.

I want Binelas at 91.

Cardinals pick up one of the BPA, Joshua Baez at #54. Looks like they'll be saving enough money on McGreevy to pull Baez away from his Vandy commit.

Brewers take Russell Smith at 51, who looks and sounds like Alek Manoah-lite.

The Red Sox walking away with Mayer and Fabian in the same year that they win the AL East would be the most f***ing Boston sports thing ever. f*** the Red Sox.

Mariners get Edwin Arroyo at 48. I think this could be a really interesting pick. I was hoping he'd slide to the Jays in the 3rd but I knew there was no chance of that happening. Potential steal here.
