Worked out for both sides, but the mavs traded the 10th overall pick in a trash draft and got a star in Doncic. Sigh.

I’d like Hawks to get Bol Bol.

Lucky for him all he’ll be asked to do is past to the post and “let them pound the rock with great spirit”.

Is what it is. Bulls are not in a fun place right now. Very boring. white is a good pick at 7 but not sure his fit. Free agency terrifies me.

lol that would be hilarious but I really doubt that's anything.

players cannot develop if a ball makes their pitching lines look horrible!

It's not just birmingham. It's AA. It's a big jump.- Sox vs Indians 5/14 1:10PM CT
nvm. edit. failed post.- Sox vs Indians 5/14 1:10PM CT
yes, and as bad as charlottes other pitchers are, worth mentioning AAA as a whole and the IL has been an insane runs environment so he's done pretty well.- Sox vs Indians 5/14 1:10PM CT
a bunch of random ones are censored correctly, the most common ones aren't picking upf or some reason.- 2018-2019 Official NBA thread
I would probably do that. if you walked away with like ball and brandon clarke or coby white that would be pretty exciting. Or if bol bol fell. But I don't know how much more I like that then darius garland.- Sox vs Indians 5/14 1:10PM CT
they should trade for andrew cashner and take on all the salary and hopefully just give up crap.- 5/14 Games
Blair Walsh: 0 outs, 3 hits, 6 runs, 5 ER, 2 BBs- 2019 MLB draft thread
I kinda am with you in that the Anderson example makes me want to take more guys that are just so physically gifted - quick hands, bat speed, etc - that they can just physically adjust so well even if they aren't maturing so much in approach. But, Timmys production was so consistent across each level, every jump and he was moved fairly quickly, that I'm not sure you could say he wasn't developing and improving as he moved up. Adolfo was making a pretty good case before his set-back. He started making more contact to tap into his power, getting on base more. Also Forbes just suddenly started walking a bunch. But there aren't a lot of "wow they just suddenly tapped into that power/avg/obp" examples.- 2019 MLB draft thread
There is no way for anyone to answer that question.- 2018-2019 Official NBA thread
Teams that I would be excited to get Zion: Atlanta Memphis New Orleans Teams I would be neutral about: Charlotte Dallas Minnesota Teams I would hate: Cleveland Phoenix Knicks Wizards Lakers Heat- 2019 MLB draft thread
LEURY GARCIA edit: i'm being serious though they didn't draft him. He's undeniably a better hitter than when he arrived from Texas. Also I know Anderson qualifies as "taking his lumps" but he made meaningful progress across levels under sox.- 2018-2019 Official NBA thread
Bleh I don't know. Mikal Bridges and SGA > Culver. Culver just looked lost against athletic defenders.- 2019 MLB draft thread
Gotta imagine the scouts love that dude that hit a rocket to Abrams left. His speeds pretty wild, the triple he lost his balance, he kinda glides though. Not as violent as how Robert/Anderson run.- 2018-2019 Official NBA thread
They just feel like they would have been drafted 14-20 last year though don't they? I think I'm with you that if they drafted Garland that would be my favorite. I think they probably should take barrett at 3 though.- 2019 MLB draft thread
does this work- 2019 MLB draft thread
Just to follow up from last week the surprise in the mock had to be Texas which HLL guessed. They went with them selecting Brett Bady at 7 which I hadn't really had on radar as top 10. And it was to do a big deal.- 2019 MLB draft thread
I suppose that's a good floor, abrams is 6'1/180 already though so it seems like even with a slappy approach he'd run into one more than Gordon has, but gordon it's almost hard to believe how rarely he does that. edit: worth pointing out that saying gordon is a floor is actually very flattering, getting 12-14 career war is pretty good but Abrams could also get more defensive WAR. But Gordon is an optimistic outcome still.- OVERVIEW FOR 2020
The lineup puzzle seems easy to put together but the rotation is hard. I'm not so sure dumpster diving is a bad idea, just make sure you get more than you need. - 5/14 Games
