Just saw that Vaughn has a run grade of 30...so maybe he is the next Konerko?

Konerko's run grade was -30.

Konerko was actually a comp some people had for him, but others said that was too light.

This is the biggest reach so far it would seem.

Check out Davis Wedzel from Baylor...he either has a 20 or a 70 grade beard...I can't decide which it is though

That is crazy talk. Konerko is like the 90th percentile outcome for Vaughn.

Haha yes. I was all about that dude in the same vein as my interest in Manoah.

I like Priester for the Pirates. I think they are a team that could have great success developing him.

I called them going after him months ago.

This is why @mqr my draft posts are so, so important

Benetti said a scout he talked to compared Vaughn to Jeff Bagwell

If baseball doesn'r work out, it looks like he has a chance to play Magic The Gathering professionally.

Just curious as I know nothing about him, why? Lack of exposure while playing on the west coast is a baffling thought to me.

He had a huge growth spurt that allowed him to suddenly tap into power while losing little athleticism. He’s still learning how to use his body so there may be a lot to tap into. He’s like an Anthony Davis for baseball.

If we are thinking prep pitcher in 2nd round....how about Andrew Dahlquist?

I was kinda thinking the same.  Short compact swing.

Well I mean what are the other comps we've heard so far tonight for him? Goldschmidt, Bagwell, Hoskins. Two of those are probably better than Konerko and Hoskins is too early to tell.

Abrams sounds so disinterested. Maybe the kid is an introvert 

20 grade interview. BUST

Alrighty German, I'm holding out hope for him then

Comps are silly though.

Him presumably coming on the TV ten second delay and getting distracted was hilarious though.

This has to be what Kiley was referencing right?
