Harold's Leg Lift

I'm going to die on the hill that Senzel is going to hit. No better place for his long overdue breakout than here.

There's a rumor that a day 1 guy (not a Sox draftee) isn't going to sign so this is a smart move.

I really like him. He's a sneaky little bastard but he's got to improve his command and that's a bad organization for him to go to for that. Good luck, Kid.

Austin Peay is a launching pad.

The Orioles took Nate George. I hate the Orioles but good for him. He's a great kid.

The Tigers took Anson Siebert in the 16th. He was one of the top HS pitchers in the class but was shut down in April with a forearm strain. It will be interesting to see if they sign him. He's committed to Tennessee so he sure as hell won't be cheap.

Outside of that sawed off runt from Pitt they're taking some big bodied pitchers.

Tanner Witt. I completely forgot about him. That dude was a 1-1 candidate a couple years ago. Case in point that not everyone recovers from TJ surgery.

Both!

Some guys I'm hoping get picked today: Nate George OF Henry Brummell RHP Michael Carpenter LHP Sammy Sass C Parker Knoll CF Owen Rice LHP

That thread made too many grown men cry. This is time for unity.

I don't think they would give Sloan $3M in any scenario. I don't think they had him valued that highly. They would likely give that money to a guy like Kash Mayfield but not Sloan. You also have to remember the key is to hit on that first pick. Pittsburgh already fucked up this scenario when they underslotted Henry Davis at 1-1 and he's awful. They totally biffed 1-1. He's so bad he can't play ahead of Joey Bart or Yasmani Grandal. With the first pick I'll take the high floor/high ceiling college lefty over a low floor/high ceiling HS position player with a questionable hit tool.

Good lord it sounds like bombs are exploding. The Royals got a real good one.

7 rounds and not a single player from the state of Indiana. If Shirley had any hair he'd be pulling it out right now.

Wow Bagwell to the Braves in the 6th. He was asking for a lot of money. I think he's a reliever but maybe they can help him develop a 3rd pitch and better command.

Peyton Olejnik. Oh god. If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all. If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all. If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all.

aaaaaaaaand there's your money saver.

He hit over .500 with a .600 obp last year at Heartland. Solid player

Pittsburgh took Will Taylor too. Son of a b****.

Sam Antonacci. Ha! He was at Heartland CC in Bloomington. Future 3B but he has feel to hit and can run a little.

Nick Mitchell goes to Toronto. WIU transfer to Indiana. Adam Eaton comp

They should

Only 3 HS players taken in the 4th round.

He kept getting better and better which is exactly what you want to see and he's still just scratching the surface of how good he can be. LOVE that kid.
