MLB draft

[BeardoMSU]

First hs pick was a pitcher from Oklahoma (3rd pick) that signed with olemiss. He looked like the olemiss type.

What are they selling pitchers there? It isn’t omaha and it isn’t protecting their arms.

OM fan-whores players they absolutely know won't make it to campus just so both can ride the social media hype for recruiting purposes. Seems to have been workin' for 'em, lol. And water is wet.

Hoglund goes 19 to blue jays.

Ty Madden getting passed up for a lot of college arms. And a lot of college guys comin off the board now. Hope that trend continues to grow. I really think MLB wants it that way.

Interesting beginning to the draft with a guy that wasn’t drafted outta high school going #1 overal…catcher outta Louisville.

Couple of other things that have stood out:
1. Manfred seems caught off guard by the boos he’s received from the live crowd…guess even the Denver sports fans aren’t as work as he thought.
2. Rocker still on the board after 8 picks.
3. Corbin one of the talkin heads for MLB network. One of his top commits went early as well as leiter.
4. Mix of high school and college guys so far but was hoping for some more college players picked early.

Did Rocker really not shake Corbin's hand after getting smacked around by MSU? Pouting little bitch!

He walked off the mound before Corbin got to him and half assedly handed him the ball. Very disrespectful…which is why espn didn’t say anything about it. They wouldn’t want to shed any negative light on their golden boy.

Rocker is extremely talented and gifted. He comes off to me as a front runner with false humility. Maybe I’m too hard on him because of him being a VandyBoy but once I started watching him intently I was disappointed in several things. Tons of arm talent and the body to go with it.

Awful city though.

While I tend to agree, based on your previous post you can't name more than. 2 or 3 good cities to play in. So there's that. For millions a year I can figure out where to live in a shitty city. But that's me.

Maddux Bruns picked 29th

[Homedawg]

Will made bank tonight! Here is the slot value for his pick: 14) Giants: $4,036,800

He'll sign below slot and be super happy for the guaranteed deal that he agreed to. Both parties win.

He committed to them as a two way player two years ago and blew up. Nobody thought hed be this. But kudos to him. Bianco continues to recruit well. Getting to Omaha not so much.

Maddux Bruns picked 29th

I pray people stop listening to gene. His last pre draft said 50-50 on Bruns, woods and walling. We better hope woods signs.

Yep, Dodgers ding us again at the back end of the first round. Unlike Ginn though Bruns will sign.

Yeah he's not very good with his "predictions".

Yeah we really never had a chance with bruns. Kind of a foregone conclusion

Wonder what the deal is with Madden falling. I know the front office people say they don’t pay attention to the mock drafts and projections but Madden has been projected early/mid 1st round for a long time now.

Wonder if he's got some injury that's not been revealed yet.

[AlSwearengen]

Homedawg, I’ve seen you mention that about Woods multiple times and I understand that he isn’t ready to hit SEC pitching, but what keeps us from telling him he is better off going juco? I guess the danger of him coming to Starkville is eating up scholarship money for a year? I’ll admit that I don’t think I know how this type of stuff is handled.

Just saw on the other site that mlb considers Madden a reliever and that is why he has fallen. The poster went on to say this is why we will give Sims a chance to start next year.

As I type, Madden just went 32nd.

Gene is pretty clueless. I enjoy his draft breakdown that he does for each player, but I never know what's true or not, because he's kind of a clown. I wish Steve, Robbie, or Paul would become more involved with baseball recruiting because they're a little more honest and reliable.

Metrics don’t like his fastball according to the talking heads.

Picture the differences in housing available for a Giant and a.... Royal.

3/2 for one and a palace in another.
