Angels get jackson

Doubt he'll get drafted before 10th round now. He's gotta be going to school.

Luis Gonzalez can play a true center at least.

I'm sure we'll here there was a guy they had a deal on drafted just before them.

Yeah, I guess, but there are players that can develop both. You can't have an outfield of daniel palka's/nicky delmonicos.

Not really crazy about it. Does not add athleticism or big tools. School: Oklahoma Ht: 5-11 | Wt: 190 | B-T: L-L | Commit/Drafted: Never Drafted Scouting Report: Walker is one of the better pure hitters in the draft class and is in the midst of a career-best season with Oklahoma this spring, hitting .373/.469/.634 through 41 games with 11 home runs and a 13 percent walk rate. Each of those numbers are career-highs for Walker and speak to his impressive hand-eye coordination and pitch recognition from the left side. The bat will get Walker drafted because he lacks a true standout plus tool—unless a club puts a 60 on his bat, which is tough to do but might make some sense in Walker’s case—as a corner outfielder without blazing speed or a big arm. At just 5-foot-11, 190 pounds, it is difficult to project much more than average power for Walker, though he has already hit double-digit home runs this spring and hit seven in 53 games with a wood bat in the Northwoods League during the summer of 2016. Speaking of his wood bat track record, Walker has that as well, hitting .406/.479/.557 in the aforementioned Northwoods League, .280/.330.400 in a brief eight-game stint in the Cape Cod League last summer and an even more impressive .333/.417/.514 with two home runs and a team-best five doubles in 20 games with Team USA. Walker might not have an immensely high ceiling thanks to his lack of tools and corner profile, but college hitters who perform well seemingly always go high and Walker is among the safer bets in the class to have some sort of major league impact.

I didn't mention Meadows and now I already have jealousy there. And man I was way off blaze alexander is way down on boards. Thought he was in play with miami early in 2nd.

Jeremiah Jackson too, joe gray jr/Alexander lower value but interesting guys 2nd round fun, lotsa players.

In the fangraphs chat, they said the reds at 47 err probably as late as he could go before getting too expensive.

Torres seems like the RHP that actually succeeds as a star, instead of the prototypical size guys.

I mean the whispers were Murray. But yeah, Gorman, expected a little bigger splash.

Had to be Loria.

Thank goodness league giving that poor St. Louis org a leg up soon.

I like Edwards, not sure he was worth the Weathers pick.

In isolation they are fine picks, I’m not rebuilding on all arms though. They could have done a lot of creative stuff.

Madrigals DP partner goes to Balt.

I mean if you were going on a rebuild and had a bunch of draft picks as your main resources would you go 3 college pitchers?

Stupid Indians are so good at this baseball orging thing.

Not really impressed by this use of resources so far for Royals.

Yes, the comp rounds will be heart breakers. Can’t wait for the effing competitive balance bull crap

Hoo hoo that looks pretty nice for Tampa. Wonder if this next pick saves money or they do that later.

?

Very necessary long break. Sure The players still there love it

There’s always tomorrow.

Eric A Longenhagen 10:03 Well all that talk of him going 4 was probably because they're on him in the 2nd... Whoops this formatting is terrible. ^schnell to White Sox in 2 rumor
