Here's a better photo of dude.

If we are throwing out names for comp picks/second rounders we like, I'm into these two so far. Strictly based on write-ups and one being an Iowa guy.

Some Keith Law takes today on Brecht and Braden Montgomery. https://theathletic.com/5316512/2024/03/05/mlb-draft-scouting-2024-braden-montgomery/

Bob noted that Boston is checking in on Montgomery now.

Woof. Poor guy.

This one streaming or on a webcast anywhere?

Robert is back in the lineup if we want to find something else to worry about.

It's just a completely uninteresting ball club. But that's not a surprise in a lost season. Maybe we get some Colson/Ramos/Nastrini at some point, but until then I'll just watch the minor league affiliates.

Crochet strikes out the side.

Hartle then Burns today in a double header. About to start.

I feel like Caleb Bonemer could be a part of the mix with Griffin from a prep standpoint. Hard for us to assess high school guys though. I think if Santucci keeps this up he could be another college arm to consider. He seems to be trending up. I might like him more than Hartle.

Boy do I get the Brecht appeal, but I don't think I would have the balls to pop him at 5th overall. That slider though.

Brecht's slider is just stupid. 3Ks in the first.

Brody Brecht time.

I'm okay with that too. It's making the top of class much more interesting than what it was. A glut of uninteresting college 2B/1B types was what we were staring at a few months back.

Hagen Smith good. I'm in.

Hagen Smith about to start against Murray St. Game is on ESPN+. Let's see how he follows up that 17K outing.
