    Mangum and MLB Draft

    MLB.COM lists Mangum as a 2nd or 3rd rounder in this year's draft. Also lists Rooker as 2nd rounder with a chance at 1st round.

    I was hoping we could hold on to Mangum, but, if this projection is accurate, it might be hard to keep him even with a leverage year.

    I can't get the hyperlink right.

    I saw a clip on MLB Network where they were saying Rooker at this pace would be in the first round. I hadn't seen that about Mangum but if he goes I hope he maxes out a signing bonus. He would have a lot of leverage with 2 years left with possible great team coming back.

    Odd as it sounds you can be a third round prospect and go lower in the draft if not undrafted because of things like leverage.

    Seems like outside of the 1st round or big dollars, Mangum has room to improve on a few things. Pitch selection and the like. Not to mention finish a degree. I'm biased because I would like to him back, of course

    Mangum needs to learn how to walk sometimes. He won't last long in MLB swinging at a pitch around his eyeballs like he did the other day.
