Giants MOD #2

As we close in on the day of the draft the first round does not look any more settled than it did two months ago.  From reports I've seen, the Giants have been tied to Matzek (the most), Shelby Miller, Jacob Turner, Zack Wheeler, and Grant Green.  Most of the recent mock drafts I've seen have us taking Matzek, but a lot of the teams before us seem to have some serious interest in him and there is no guarantee he will be there for our pick.  Hitting 98 in his last start isn't going to help his chances.

I also think the Giants have scouted Aaron Crow to a certain degree, but it looks like he might go as high as 3 or 4.  Tanner Scheppers may have the second best arm in the draft but its hard to use such a high pick on somebody who already has serious injury concerns.

As much as I liked Green, the Giants are leaning high school pitching and appear to be very impressed by this year's crop.  That being said, there could be so much of it, that we could hope some lasted to the second round; Zack von Rosenberg, Brody Colvin, Madison Younginer, Victor Black, and Matt Bashore all project as supplemental to second round picks.   If we are looking for hitting, Poythress has been dropping down draft boards but not far enough.  Other hitting considerations for the second and third rounds include Chris Dominguez, Brett Jackson (very unlikely but he visited with the Giants), Tommy Mendonca, Kentrail Davis, and Mychel Givens. 

So tell me what you think.
