southsider2k5 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I am just thrilled to have actual baseball to talk about again. The thing I have missed more than anything the last three months is competitive sports. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySox Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Also, GTFO if you care about spoilers. Like every year, the picks are going to hit twitter before TV, and they get posted here. Fair warning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Look at Ray Ray Run Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Bistko >>>>>>>>>>> Abel too I'd rather have the one extra year of development under my control. Bistko being really young is a huge advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it's Howard, but I think there's a 0% chance we draft Howard. I hope I'm wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bistko being really young is a huge advantage. Both have to be added on the 40 man at the same time.. So there isn't really an extra year, right?

So there isn't really an extra year, right? The extra year meaning his personal development. Bitsko is 17 years old. You basically have him for his senior year of high school professionally to develop as you wish. He's also a year younger physically. I'd much rather have the kid I can create younger with a great build. ALso, Detmers is Patrick Corbin comp wise; it's stupid how similar they are imo.

Squirmin' for Yermin Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 My board of who may be available 1. Abel 2. Detmers 3. Bitsko 4. Howard . . . 15. Crochet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crochet I still wouldn't take Bitsko - wouldn't touch a high school righty in the first round personally. I'd just rather he than Abel. I really don't care much about peak stuff in high school - rather you peak later as a pitcher personally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolishPrince34 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Mlb Network just mentioned Bitsko has only thrown 33 high school innings and 10 innings in showcases. Crazy!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boopa1219 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 My favorite player in the draft is Max Meyer. If he were a couple of inches taller, he'd be a legit 1-1 candidate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySox Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) Quote 6:14 PM:. Looks like the Angels are backing off the rumor they would punt pick ten. Now heavily linked to Louisville lefthander Reid Detmers. Still the biggest question mark in the first half of the draft. https://www.prospectslive.com/mlb-draft/2020/6/8/live-rumor-updates-mlb-draft-day Edited June 10, 2020 by DirtySox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
