MOD II: Mariners
Mariners fans UNITE!
Alright M's fans...
Again, the M's have the following picks in the first five rounds of the draft: 11, 52, 76, 106, 136, & 166. We've talked about the first round pick and like I mentioned before, I don't think Price, Wieters, Vitters, Heyward, Harvey, Moustakas, Detwiler, Dominguez, Parker or Mills will be available. But, I'd be very happy if either Aumont or Bumgarner fell to us at 11.
So, let's start talking about the Mariners' supplemental pick, and beyond. Their pick in the sandwich round is #52. I'm hoping Justin Jackson or Nevin Griffith fall, but I'm not holding my breath. I would love Matt Mangini, who BA ranked #52 - but I think because he's more of a "name" than some of the other players around there, he might be taken before then.
Has anyone seen Mitch Canham (C- Oregon State)? What are your thoughts?
Has anyone seen Nick Hagadone (LHP - UW)? I tried to go see him last Saturday, but he didn't pitch. My question would be: do you think he can start? I would be reluctant to pick a reliever that high, so I would want to know that he could be a starter. I think you'd have to try him there anyway - he could always go back to the 'pen if it didn't work out, and as a 6'5" LHP that touches 95, there's a lot of upside there.
Some other guys I wouldn't mind at 52: James Simmons (RHP - UC Riverside), Kyle Blair (RHP - Los Gatos HS), Jake Arrieta (RHP - Texas Christian), Nick Tepesch (RHP - Blue Springs HS)
I also like Wes Roemer & Kellen Kulbacki, but I'd like them alot better at 76...
Anyone else I should look at in the supplemental?
What about rounds 2-5? I'm a BA subscriber, so I have the top 200 list, but I don't want to give out all of "my guys" (the guys I like) to other SDs who might not be subscribers...
M's fans: Give me some thoughts on guys you like and where you think they might be available. Tell me why you like them.
Because I didn't really discuss it in MOD #1, here are some of my general draft philosophies...
