You don't take players based on present value dude. 

Not even gonna get into with him. But I hope this guy mashes (and hopefully Madrigal turns it up himself as a guy with a plus hit tool himself).

Hostetler's comments are  ridiculous.

he still thinks most baseball fans are meatheads or something.  say something substantive.

Yes. We have our Freddie Freeman. Abreu either slots into DH or bye bye.

 

Get him the hell out of here. Vaughn may be a better hitter than him TODAY

They really need to add some guys who use their left arm

 

also penciling in dunning and not lopez is a weird decision.

2nd round....college arm?

Vaughn on mlb network now

His hair is terrible.  Bleday is much better looking.

CF- Robert

LF- Jimenez

RF-FA/one of our 6 prospects

1B-Vaughn

2B-Madrigal

SS-Anderson

3B-Moncada

C-McCann/Collins

Believe in him like you did Giolito....we need more of that magic ?

Eh, if you followed the nfl thread you would know that his beliefs can be very wrong ?

I'm tired of arguing with Ray Ray it's obvious we view the game through an entirely different lens.

He puts a product in his hair called prediotalation

Looks like he migtht be balding soon. Feeling this pick might be kinda risky in that regard.

I'm so stoked about this pick!  Vaughn is gonna be a good one for a long time!!!

I knew you of all people would love this pick if it means Abreu is shown the door lol.

Every argument on here is ultimately pointless, but draft ones doubly so

No mine are good.

So if SD passes on Abrams, he drops drops yea?

Get into it with me? Lol. Present an actual fact based point and add something to the discussion that isnt some absurd arbitrary rule that encompasses players based on things outside of their control. Its amazing how everyone who plays and covers the game and watches him says hes about as incredible a bat as exist. It's almost like we are seeing the same thing. Weird.

Pal, I'm giving you thought on what teams are looking for and how they evaluate risk. If you want to argue that a guy with two elite hit tools is the riskiest top 10 pick, then you go ahead and do so... just know you're factually wrong and that is not how an mlb team would evaluate risk. Risk is separation between PV and FV - which is why high school kids are inherently riskier as the math confirms.

I like Detroit’s drafts last two years. I think the central gonna be a battle in the 20s

Except Freeman is lefty but I know what you mean. Plate discipline  and power.

Top 2 picks were having a party...Vaughn looked like he was in his dorm...but I am watching without the sound so I might have missed something
