To be honest I find Narvaez and Smith fairly interchangeable, they aren’t very good but I’ll take Smith more this year.

No, it’s cause he bats left handed, and Castillo bats right handed.

I haven’t looked into how FG does catcher defense. Seems off. Would take Soto/Castillo/Smith etc over narvy easy

Surprisingly that advantage was driven by Omar’s defense in fangraphs

All in on the Smith is good ?

Thanks!

Can someone remind me when Leury is back? July?

He hit a HR about 2% of his PAs this year including playoffs. What’s 2% of, say, 700 plate attempts?

It's coming very soon. Great falls starts in 9 days. Extended ST just ended. Bout to see a ton of movement.

1-2 balls a game? That another SS would have caught? I feel like I watch a decent amount of baseball and the low liner that's catchable by a jumping SS isn't that common.

This is referring to day 3 right?

It seems like a lot of PR players have gone off the board since round 8. I'm wondering if the hurricane recovery has brought some players to be more signable than otherwise would have.

Competition for Fulmer: Bilous walked 7.25/9ip. That's impressive!

Reminds me of hunter kiel.

FWIW these are the rounds hostetler says they start taking more direction from Getz, also will take some to keep some scouts engaged that may not have had many taken to this point. edit: would be fun to place these guys on a map.

I love our coastal carolina players (Remillard, Morrison) from that championship team, I assume I'll love this guy. Scouting Report: Drafted by the Dodgers in the 29th round out of high school despite not pitching his senior season due to Tommy John surgery, Bilous has long tantalized scouts with his potential. As a freshman at Coastal Carolina in 2016, he flashed electric stuff in Omaha, helping the Chanticleers win their first-ever national championship. Since then, he's been up-and-down as a weekend starter, going 3-2, 4.61 last season, and notching a 7-2, 3.00 record through 13 starts this spring. Bilous can look unhittable at times, featuring a 92-96 mph fastball with arm-side run, a hard, biting slider at 81-85 mph and an 84-87 mph changeup that he throws almost exclusively to lefties. The problem for the 6-foot-2, 190-pound righthander is that he struggles to repeat his release point and walks often pile up on him. In 169.1 college innings, Bilous has walked 135 batters—7.18 per nine innings. He's walked 58 (to 90 strikeouts) through 72 innings this spring—7.25 per nine. Because of his sheer lack of control, Bilous projects more as a reliever. He has the stuff to be dominant out of the bullpen, but he'll need to tighten up the location woes that have plagued him throughout his amateur career.

Yo this is Sherlock Holmes level deduction.

Genericusername wins the day. Bravo, bravo.

Exact types of picks I want.

His body changed so much his year off I wonder if that had a part in these issues. Though, broken bones, meh probably not.

Judging by the late round names this year I'm guessing we draft Sword McMetalneck

He had a year off of baseball. Yes correct. Hopefully Robert gets AFL and winterball this year, get this guy in games.

Yeah luckily he will not be as worn down as most college players when they join but if he signs quickly he could get a good half season plus playoffs if he's up for it.

Palka would need to hit like a 135 wRC+ for me to bother holding a spot for him across years. Glad he has this opportunity and I hope he is enjoying it.

Much respect for those who actually have names for the 11th round ha. I tried to look up one but it took too long.
