“You’re a big part of our future, thank you for everything.” ”We’re very gracious to have the opportunity to select you today.“

Yea, just watch this and tell me they all didn’t know what was going down. Even his, “I got a little worried yesterday” comment seems almost planted. Looks like he knew he was going to be selected by our team.

I too liked Abel more than Crochet... but one thing I will say is that Crochet being older bumps up his arrival estimate a great deal compared to a high school senior like Mick. Considering some in our draft room also were on team Abel, the above was probably one of a few contributors that swayed the pick toward Garrett.

Two player draft it is. Worth it IMO.

Detroit’s first two picks according to pipeline rankings: #1 and #24 = 25 White Sox: #18 and #12 = 30 Royals: #3 and #36 = 39 Reds: #13 and #89 = 102 Just a way to say, we got great value over the last couple days.

Does he play water polo?

Poop!

I’d put our top two picks up there with the other winners. Tigers, O’s, Marlins, Rays, Royals, and Blue Jays also strong.

Everyone got sidetracked when you mentioned that devil site.

Knowing they already have deals in place with both picks, I’m not so sure they’re punting the last three picks.

Just to remind everyone from @Y2Jimmy and futuresox... https://www.futuresox.com/2020/06/01/2020-draft-preview-jared-kelley-rhp/

I’ll give em a discount.

Can.Not.Believe.It.

Whoa. What’s happening?

One more ????

Two more ??

Same ?

Why?

Thanks for the insight

Backs up with the speculation from that one projection and gives some more hope for us!

Anyone have a guess or speculation as to why Kelly wasn’t selected today?

8 WAR out of the 11 spot isn’t a bad floor

That’s because Law never ranks pitchers very high if they’re not 100% guaranteed to be a starter. I’ve read people put the percentage of him being a reliever at 85% but if he’s Andrew Miller II, I don’t flipping care.

I’ve read it wasn’t much more than general soreness and them wanting to preserve him. ”overblown” was one word I heard regarding the injury concern. I do trust our scouting on pitching.
