Can you fucking nerds shut up?  Nobody gives a shit.  Talk about the draft.

Boy, you have to like the contact rate soon to be provided by the left side of the infield!

This pick is making the Abreu stans insecure. Abreu will be traded this deadline or will settle for a fair contract this off-season, which won't be huge. Vaughn might be better than him today, especially considering defense. 

Please.  Just don't post about Abreu.  It makes you seem ridiculous, ignorant and petty.

Wow. Didn't expect that one.

I generally didn't have a problem with you and your posts until the overtly sexist language. Get with the times please.

Fair enough, my apologies. That was wrong of me.

The problem I have with this coverage is every player is described as a future HOFer. They need a Mel Kiper Jr. to say some team doesn’t know what the draft is about to mix things up a bit.

Every good broadcast needs a heel announcer.

Look, another guy who follows me around the forum. I show respect to those who do the same. I post in response to posts, not posters. Give it a try sometime.

He likes to follow me around too so don’t feel so special!

It's incredible that you believe people follow you around internet message boards.  You're in the 2019 MLB Draft thread on 2019 MLB DRAFT DAY.

Right side will be called intelligent and grinders.  Left side will be raw and athletic

I wouldn't mind Misner if he slides

Without any special insight about his starting level - I would love to see him in AA in August. Wherever they do start him I hope he hits enough quickly enough that we can get him to that level. 

Whether he gets there or not this season, I bet the hope is to start him in AA next year. 

I'm pretty bullish on Langeliers. Really like this pick. Earlier than I thought. He was really linked to the Twins in this process.

I just say that I am happy the Sox were picking at #3. This draft is incredibly top heavy. Nobody left on the board really excites me.

Oh no. Law's periscope is over. Now I have to listen to Harold.

Go look at your post history. I have never ever initiated a conversation with you as your posts are all critical of others and add nothing to the conversation. An actual decent percentage of your posts are some absurd, negative, jab at me though. Its weird.

That would be the definition of following someone around. Hope that helps.

Given how much people have struggled with BHam this year, I really hope we can get him some PAs there before the season ends just to get him a taste of it. Then yeah, BHam early next year and basically his job is to hit his way to the big leagues from there.

Me too.  He's one of my favorite players in this draft. Langeliers is every bit as good at Rutschman if not better behind the plate.  glad he's out of the AL

Want a LH corner OF power bat.

I think this is why the Sox didn’t even question taking him.  Best hitter in the draft.  Abreu isn’t getting younger.  And you also ideally want all these young guys up at around the same time.  Vaughn fits the bill on all fronts.

Yep, I’m with ya.  Preferably with a big arm to play RF.

Harold Reynolds drinking game:

Every time he comps someone to a´Hall of Famer you take a shot.

First one dead wins.

Yep.  Would take a toolsy guy but we really need LH power.

I wonder if Baylor let him call his own game entirely.

Bishop. I really like this pick in this range. Too scary at number 3 for me though.
