Jose Abreu

Yeah I don't know what DJ was thinking. That pitch was low. Quality AB

I do think that Gonzalez, the catcher from the 8th round, is at least a little intriguing. Patel also had great numbers this year, unlike some of the other senior sign pitchers, but there's not really any video of him

The people expecting Keuchel to be good after not pitching against pro hitters for 10 months are bound to be disappointed. I would honestly rather stick with Dylan Covey.

Vaughn and Thompson collectively will save us about $1,000,000 IMO.

Waiting until mid-June 2020 to call up Robert at this rate makes no sense. The absolute latest we should see him is late-April

Totally agree, it's just better than the alternatives IMO, aside from debuting him on the road or waiting until July (please no)

Yes we are out of the Super 2 range I believe, since the season started so early.

If they give him one more start in AAA, he'd have to debut against the Yankees or Cubs, which would go against their usual philosophy for pitching debuts

Patel is now my favorite draft pick solely because he's Indian

It isn't confirmed, as it's not something the team can really announce while he still has a scheduled start for Charlotte, but they also have done a pretty bad job at keeping it a secret

Dalquist is definitely overslot, and Beard most likely is as well. Every other pick we've made is probably underslot IMO.

Andrew Vaughn

How is Osmond still out there? Especially with the 2 way player craze

Ha, sure. If healthy though, Robert is gonna be a primary CFer for basically his whole career. Sort of like LoCain.

Unless Beard takes 15 years to develop, I don't think this will come to fruition

@bmags you've been killing it with the draft analysis and profiles (and moderation, I would assume), thank you

Jimenez

Last AAA start for Cease!

He would have been a better fit for Kauffman.

Oddly enough, it reminds me of Giolito a bit

yes

Hampton, Henderson, or Hinds. Give me an H.

There goes Misner
