the only college players I’d like round 2 are Seth Johnson, Ethan Small and Misner, but obviously haven’t considered all of em and could be convinced for some others.

That's disgustingly bad.  

Wouldn't mind Corey Dickerson.  ?‍♂️

Menoah’s body is going to need ALOT of maintenance in his career

That's part of the appeal to me. Looks like a grade A scumbag. Pretty emotional when pitching too. He's fun to watch.

He forgot about Rowdy Tellez. Shameful.

His body is so trash. I know hes a pitcher so it means less, but jesus christ does he remind me of pantload Joba. Two pitch nonsense from a big 12 school - hard fastball and decent secondary with nothing else.

Yep, two pitches...  pass.  Is this the worst draft for college pitchers?

Said it on previous page, but hes Joba 2.0. Just taller.

Bye Baty.

Was going to say his tattoos are VERY West Virginia.

Callis says the worst in his 30 years. I dont have enough knowledge or history to say that but certainly the worst since I was in school 12 years ago.

Hes the baseball version of Kevin pittsnogle - wvus famous white trash center that helped lead them deep into the tournament 

"YOU'RE LUCKY YOU PICKED ME OR MY DAD WAS GOING TO SUE YOU!"

-Brett Baty, probably.

Saw Baty interviewed earlier. He’s an impressive guy. Why he’s 19.5 in high school, I have no idea.

Kam Misner would be a great 2nd round pick if he makes it there. I doubt he does though.

You're slipping DS. You usually have these picks like 5 minutes before they're announced.

do HS prep guys ever "reclassify" like with top basketball recruits and go to prep school?

Dat timetable.

Harold never stops giving. The 9th pick in the draft isnt just Freddie Freeman (a perennial MLB allstar) but hes Freddie with better power lol.

There was an article recently about how basketball prospects are all redoing a year in like middle school so they look better for college teams. Baty is a basketball player too, so maybe he was good enough at an early age that they did that.

Usually you reclass up a year, not back in baseball.

O'Dowd dropping a 70 power on Baty. ?
