Said it before but I would still acquire andrew cashner to provide some starter relief. He should not require sending much out. He's not good, but he may perform better against the AL central teams vs. AL east, and is still averaging 5.33 innings per start. It's like what Ivan Nova was supposed to be.

And the running assumption with Thompson is slot should be all he needs?

Yeah nothing on Trenkles Twitter has made it seem like he’s going anywhere but OSU. Krogman seems gettable, and hopefully Glass

@lostfan

People counting out warriors down only six as if they aren’t one of the great score in bunches team of all time. (go raptors)

OP updated. seems like to date we are over $335k from the rounds 11-40 at this point, while under 670k at this point from senior signs that we know of (though futuresox indicates we are looking at 10k signings for the other 3 senior picks so I imagine this will grow by whatever additional slot there is -30k).

Acosta being more than Torres I find kinda interesting.

That’s all.

Ruiz man.

Considering the timing I bet he starts in AZL

That was my first thought as well.

Love sending business letters in the mail.

You know, he was able to get a lot of time in the major leagues whereas had he been claimed by most other teams he would have never had the chance. This is a happy story even if he didn't produce at the level he wishes he could have.

He's given up no runs in the majors!

Why did you include Marshall?

DSL won 5-2: - Anthony Espinoza (a guy): 2-4, BB, 2 2b - Pineda (sort of a guy): 2-4 - Leal/Bernal/Bailey: 2 BB a piece. This team actually doesn't strike out that much (one dude had 4 ks but the rest only had 5). That's one of my favorite parts of DSL, how all of the hitters strike out all the time but none of the pitchers strike anyone out. Homer Cruz struck out 5 over 5 with only 1 ER. He's 19 and signed this year so probably nothin. Oriel Castro is 18 and struck out 3 over 3.

I merged them but I just want everyone to know I did it before I saw this so it had no influence.

His top 50 report had him as "solid command and control" for his age so I think that's why I didn't pick up on it as much, but the "he could start in college right away" probably was the bigger tell.

DSL team performing well early this season.

Fegan didn't have an explicit update but mentioned that he had a target date that has now been skipped past, it was a sign of just how difficult an injury he was coming back from.

That was really exciting as it's not something I'm sure I picked up on. Continuing to get a better read on Beard. So yes, tools are there, exciting package and believes he can hit, but the risk profile is higher for him due to geographical reasons (MS being a poor baseball locale for development), but it's somewhat mitigated by his unique speed. He's going to be fun to watch, and considering the pitchers probably won't work much this year, he's going to be easy to focus on in AZL.
