Bumper to bumper while 3 lanes merging into one.

Voice to text, couldn't resist while driving into work lol

Or he's eluding to the fact that they are still playing games so he's unavailable to talk most days.

Agreed, its not often you see a team post back to back losing seasons and send off the manager with dignity. Classy for all around!

Joe Girardi

Sounds like Jansen may be getting called up, wonder if Martin goes to 3B after Solarte got hurt.

Its not like we were trading studs lol.

The problem is we will never know what was on the table from others to properly judge it.

But 9 years of control of garbage is hardly valuable.

I would have rather kept Happ than give him to the Yankees for nothing.

Are we ever going to add arms? Lol I have been expecting us to add 3+ arms this week.

Scout better then.

Yankees system is so deep that thee are far more exciting combos to make in a Happ deal.

No, fans didn't show up to watch Halladay pitch a hall of fame career they seem to only care about winning strangely enough...

Of course they care, as soon as the team is built back up and competitive again the mindless drones will be walking over each other to get tickets and fill the dome back up again. Might as well build the team properly so we can sustain it for more than 2 years the next time.

My favorite managers are the ones who always make the best decisions with hindsight.

Don't forget no projectable tools.

1 Tigers Casey Mize Auburn RHP Notes: This is the easy pick. It starts to get dicey immediately after No. 1. 2 Giants Joey Bart Georgia Tech C Notes: San Francisco controls the draft at No. 2 and has been linked to a number of players with the second overall pick, but they’ve been all over Joey Bart since the beginning of the season. He’s hit and caught well enough to justify going this high, and the highest pick the Giants have had this century prior to this year was in 2008 when the team took Florida State catcher Buster Posey with the fifth overall pick. Drafting an ACC catcher worked out pretty well for them then. Maybe it will again. 3 Phillies Alec Bohm Wichita State 3B Notes: Philadelphia has selected a few players with questionable impact potential at the top of the draft in recent years, and while there’s still time for 2016 No. 1 overall pick Mickey Moniak to figure things out, there’s a lot of pressure on the Phillies here at No. 3. They don’t select again until the fourth round, so why not take a bat with tons of power at one of the safest draft demographics there is? 4 White Sox Jonathan India Florida 3B Notes: India has been surging all spring and it sounds like he’s still in the mix for teams even higher than No. 4 overall. His batting average has recently dipped below .400, but he’s having a career year in the SEC (.392/.531/.791) and has faced significantly stiffer competition than Bohm and Oregon State second baseman Nick Madrigal, which is a point in his favor. India is even better (.407/.559/.852) in conference play. As one scouting director noted, teams who have taken productive SEC hitters at the top of the draft (Nick Senzel, Alex Bregman, Dansby Swanson, Andrew Benintendi) have rarely been disappointed. Additionally, India’s .399 isolated slugging through 47 games is an extremely rare trait to see in a college infielder this century. 5 Reds Brady Singer Florida RHP Notes: Singer throws from a lower arm slot, the changeup could be a little better and there’s still some uncertainty surrounding why the Blue Jays didn’t sign Singer out of high school. However, he’s been durable (over 250 innings with the Gators), successful and he has solid mid-rotation stuff. As one of the higher probability major leaguers in this draft, he seems to fit higher than lower in the first round. He pitched well, as usual, in a recent marquee matchup against Mize and Auburn in front of Reds general manager Dick Williams. 6 Mets Nick Madrigal Oregon State 2B/SS Notes: Madrigal hasn’t skipped a beat since returning to the Beavers’ lineup after missing almost two months with a wrist injury, with seven multi-hit games since returning to action on April 19. Madrigal will also have the chance to face a pair of potential day one arms in Tristan Beck and Kris Bubic this weekend when Stanford comes to Corvallis for a big three-game series. 7 Padres Matthew Liberatore Mountain Ridge HS, Glendale, Ariz. LHP Notes: Many evaluators still see Liberatore as the first prep pitcher off the board, and a step above the rest of the high school pitching class. To be clear, Padres’ 2017 first-round pick MacKenzie Gore was ahead of where Liberatore currently is at this point last season in terms of present stuff and command, but scouts love the Arizona commit’s feel for pitching. He was sitting 92-94, touching 96 mph in a recent outing in front of many high-level decision makers for teams picking from five to 10. 8 Braves Jarred Kelenic Waukesha (Wis.) West HS OF Notes: Kelenic has been difficult to scout given the weather he’s dealt with this spring, but the Braves have had someone from the organization watching his every move. He had a loud performance last weekend, when he went 11-for-17 with five doubles and a home run against Division I commits. While the Braves will always be in the mix for power arms, they could go with arguably the best prep hitter in the class to add to a system already loaded with pitching. Arizona third baseman Nolan Gorman could fit here as well, as a player with more raw talent at this age than Austin Riley, who has developed well in the Braves system. Still, it would be unwise to count Atlanta out of pitching here and it sounds like the team likes South Florida lefthander Shane McClanahan, as well as high-upside prep arms like Ethan Hankins, Kumar Rocker and Carter Stewart. 9 Athletics Shane McClanahan South Florida LHP Notes: McClanahan should be in the mix higher up the board, so if he falls here the Athletics might be thrilled to get a player with top-five talent. If this scenario happens, it would be a similar situation to how the A’s landed A.J. Puk with the sixth pick in 2016. After a few rough starts in late March and early April, McClanahan has allowed just five hits in his last two games, striking out 23 batters and walking five. 10 Pirates Grayson Rodriguez Central Heights HS, Nacogdoches, Texas RHP Notes: Rodriguez meets a lot of the same criteria that defined Shane Baz last year, who the team took with the No. 12 overall pick. He’s a big Texas righthander who’s up to 98 mph, has done a lot of work to improve his body over the offseason and repeats his delivery well. A few weeks ago Rodriguez was being talked about in the back half of the first round, but it sounds like he’s moving even higher than that. 11 Orioles Cole Winn Orange (Calif.) Lutheran HS RHP Notes: Winn has been arguably the most consistent prep pitcher in the class dating back to last summer and Baltimore has shown no recent hesitation with prep righthanders in the first round. A team that doesn’t like injury risks, Baltimore seems like a solid fit for Winn, who has been as steady as they come. 12 Blue Jays Noah Naylor St. Joan of Arc Catholic SS, Mississauga, Ont. 3B/C Notes: Naylor has been rising in recent weeks and, given his strong track record against professional hitters with Team Canada, has an argument as the most polished prep bat in the class. 13 Marlins Nolan Gorman O'Connor HS, Phoenix 3B Notes: The Marlins are a tough team to peg at this moment, but many people in the industry believe they will be taking a high school player at this spot on June 4. Gorman wouldn’t have had a shot to get to them before the season, so they might like the idea of popping his close to elite raw power at No. 13. The team has also leaned towards hitters at the top of the draft recently, and given the state of the farm system and major league franchise, might be willing to swing for a homer here with the Gorman—who put on a show at the Major League High School Home Run Derby at Marlins Park last summer. Triston Casas and Naylor were both in that event and also make some sense here. 14 Mariners Travis Swaggerty South Alabama OF Notes: While the Marlins seem to be leaning towards the prep avenue, Seattle could easily go in the other direction and in this situation Travis Swaggerty would be the best player on the board. Swaggerty is having a solid season, hitting .301/.466/.584 with 45 walks and 30 strikeouts in 166 at-bats. 15 Rangers Carter Stewart Eau Gallie HS, Melbourne, Fla. RHP Notes: Stewart could easily go higher than this (i.e. Atlanta), but he scuffled a bit in his last start of the season and some evaluators see him more in the 10-15 range now. His two potential 70-grade pitches and performance in front of high-end decision makers this spring should keep him in the top half of the first round either way. 16 Rays Brice Turang Santiago HS, Corona, Calif. SS Notes: If Turang slips out of the Top 10, it’s going to be hard for many teams in the rest of the draft class to match his reported asking price. Scouts now say that he could end up making it to Louisiana State, something that seemed impossible when the season began. That would still be extremely surprising to actually see happen, and teams like the Rays and Royals have plenty of pool space to pop Turang and sign him. 17 Angels Ethan Hankins Forsyth Central HS, Cumming, Ga. RHP Notes: Hankins has looked better on the mound in recent weeks as he continues to build innings after missing a few starts with a scapula issue, and his camp is confident that a clean MRI will allow teams to worry less as well. He isn’t quite back to the summer form that had him as the best player in the high school class, but he’s trending in the right direction and currently could be on the board as high as No. 8. 18 Royals Jordyn Adams Green Hope HS, Cary, N.C. OF Notes: Adams is going to rightfully command a big bonus as a two-way commit with prospects on the football field as well as the diamond, and recently evaluators have even compared the North Carolina outfielder to Byron Buxton. Buxton’s 2012 scouting report sounds eerily similar to Adams, although at this point Adams has less track record than Buxton had. 19 Cardinals Parker Meadows Grayson (Ga.) HS OF Notes: Meadows would be a slightly off-the-board selection here at No. 18, but St. Louis has been in on the toolsy Georgia outfielder all spring and had no reservations taking prep outfielder Dylan Carlson at No. 33 two years ago. 20 Twins Jackson Kowar Florida RHP Notes: Kowar could be in the mix throughout the teens, but makes some sense for the Twins as a polished college arm who could move quickly through the system and impact a major league club that’s set on contending. 21 Brewers Trevor Larnach Oregon State OF Notes: Larnach has been one of college baseball’s most improved hitters this season and has maintained his power throughout the season in the Pac-12. 22 Rockies Kumar Rocker North Oconee HS, Bogart, Ga. RHP Notes: Rocker to the Rockies. It makes sense phonetically and philosophically as Colorado loves to go after power arms. Fellow Georgia product Cole Wilcox might be in the mix here as well, as he recently out pitched Rocker in a big-time playoff matchup and has seen steady improvement this spring. Wilcox may be higher than Rocker on some teams’ boards, but Rocker has a longer history of showing major league caliber stuff. 23 Yankees Triston Casas American Heritage School, Plantation, Fla. 1B Notes: It’s sounding like the Yankees want to go after a hitter at No. 23. The major league team currently has some of the biggest sluggers in baseball so maybe they’ll try and replicate the success of Aaron Judge with Triston Casas, who has an imposing frame, a patient approach and serious raw power. Georgia catcher Anthony Seigler might start to be in play in this range as well, as scouting director Damon Oppenheimer has seen him multiple times. 24 Cubs Anthony Seigler Cartersville (Ga.) HS C Notes: Seigler has done a lot to raise his stock this spring, hitting with authority from both sides of the plate and playing solid defense behind the plate. At this point he should be the first prep catcher off the board aside from Noah Naylor (who many teams might prefer to push as a third baseman) and several teams sound interested in this range. 25 Diamondbacks Ryan Weathers Loretto (Tenn.) HS LHP Notes: It’s possible that Weathers is gone long before 25. Teams have regularly said he fits in the middle of the first round and he’s pitched well this spring. This mock would have the D-backs taking the best player available. They could also opt for a college bat. 26 Red Sox Jeremy Eierman Missouri State SS Notes: Boston is likely out on many of the prep righthanders who could be available in this range, and seems to prefer a college player at No. 26. This could be the highest that a player like Clemson’s Seth Beer gets taken, but Missouri State shortstop Jeremy Eierman is a much safer profile with a chance to play shortstop and Red Sox scouting director Mike Rikard has seen him homer in person this spring. 27 Nationals Connor Scott Plant HS, Tampa OF/LHP Notes: The Nationals might love for Scott to get to them at No. 27, as he could be in play as high as the back of the top 10 and throughout the middle of the first round. He’s dealt with some minor injuries throughout the summer and this spring, but when he’s been on the field has been excellent with the bat and on the mound as a strike throwing lefthander. He has more ceiling as an everyday player. 28 Astros Logan Gilbert Stetson RHP Notes: Gilbert has slid a bit this spring thanks to lower fastball velocity than he showed during the summer, but he does a lot of things that an analytical team like the Astros might like, including strike out 109 batters in 78 innings. 29 Indians Alek Thomas Mount Carmel HS, Chicago OF Notes: The Indians have taken a number of prep outfielders in the first round in recent years and might love Alek Thomas’ athleticism, feel to hit and high likelihood of sticking in center field. Indiana high schooler Nick Schnell, who’s among the hottest hitters in the country, could be in play here as well if he hasn’t gone off the board already. Cleveland loves feel to hit though, and Thomas likely has the edge here with more history barreling top competition than Schnell. 30 Dodgers Ryan Rolison Mississippi LHP Notes: This mock has Rolison falling a bit lower than some teams expect. He could be in play much higher than this and a team who isn’t concerned with some of his mechanical issues this spring might even like him in the top 10. That said, the Dodgers will have to react to what every team in the league does in front of them, and here they could take the best player available. 31 Rays Nick Schnell Roncalli HS, Indianapolis OF Notes: The Rays have been one of many teams bearing down on Schnell recently and he seems to fit the bill as a high-upside talent. Tampa Bay can start to get creative with back-to-back comp picks at the end of the first round as well. 32 Rays Mason Denaburg Merritt Island (Fla.) HS RHP Notes: Seen at times this spring as a potential top of the first round pick, a biceps injury shut down Denaburg this spring but he’s got as much upside as any prep righthander in the class and elite athleticism. This mock has the Rays going high school all the way. 33 Royals Jordan Groshans Magnolia (Texas) HS 3B/SS Notes: The Royals have more money than any team in the class, though they will be somewhat limited by what the Rays do with the two picks in front of them. Groshans has hit well this spring in front of a lot of heat and could go off the board here with plus power and a frame that could add more. 34 Royals Jeremiah Jackson St. Luke's Episcopal School, Mobile, Ala. SS Notes: Another offense-first infielder, Jackson began his season by homering in his first at-bat and has terrific bat speed as well as a strong arm. He might have less of a chance to stick at shortstop than some other prep infielders, but could turn into a mashing second baseman with enough glove skill to handle the position. Many teams interested in Seigler higher than this seem to think that he won’t get past these comp picks. 35 Indians Steele Walker Oklahoma OF Notes: At this point we’re basically guessing, so let’s double down on the Indians loving hittability and give them Walker, who is having a career year with Oklahoma (including an OPS over 1.000) and a high floor.

Love it, he can knock up all the girls he wants and f*** around while with a gf but its throwing one down the stairs that makes him a piece of s***

What we could have got for him had we traded him in the off-season...

He's done if it's true.

Two more facts are, he was released without bond and he wasn't charged with assault causing bodily harm... Now does that sound like some testosteroned up big strong man physically abusing some weak girl or more of an argument based Fight where the golden goose was at risk? Furthermore, it probably explains Osunas mental health issues if he was with some manipulative psycho.

This is likely what happened and have experienced it myself a few times when I was young. It's like when you hear about a bombing or shooting in a public place. You know what is going on but you aren't allowed to speculate until eventually you find out the suspects name is Mohammed Saladin and it confirms what you think. Meanwhile people in denial will still try to come up with unrealistic theories to avoid the nasty truth they fail to believe, like women are inherently gold digging psychos.

Osuna is about to learn the lesson that it's always cheaper to buy a prostitute/escort than f*** around with street trash as a young millionaire.

They know how to end a tense situation and regain control.
