it was a waste.

Shadow draft is much better.

Also, I love Odorizzi.

if they can get him signed.

Royals would have the best prep hitter and pitcher in the draft.

I actually lost all interest in the draft when the A’s made this pick. I LOVE Smoak and am not ashamed to admit my huge man-crush on him. When we were one pick from getting him I was pacing.

I don’t blame Texas for taking him, they had too. Best player available by far. I honestly think he’s Texiera part II. He was a top 5 talent.

I hate the Weeks pick. I’ll go on the record now to call him a bust. I wanted Wallace, Freidrich or Hicks in that order.

..

no one is going to pay the money he’s demanding.

For Thames it’s his injury, but I have no idea about Putnam.

dodgers?....really? Can you elaborate on that.

As a dodger fan, this draft hasn’t really excited me so far.

I’m not a big fan of my Cardinals draft. I like it, but its not top 10. Shane Peterson is no better than Jon Jay and Jermain Curtis isn’t going to be much more than 2nd baseman hitting .270-.280. Brett Wallace and Niko Vasquez were great picks. Lance Lynn needs to turn it around to be worth the 39th pick. He didn’t look good at all against Mizzou or Kentucky when I saw him. Scott Gorgen was a good pick as well in the 4th round, though he may be a reliever down the road.
Pretty low ceiling draft outside of Wallace and Vasquez.

It’s a gutsy draft for sure. I don’t know too much about the guys between Gose and Shreve, but with those 4, you have a ton of upside. You’ll have to be patient with it, but if 2 of those guys reach their potential, they’ll be rewarded well.

he told all teams to not draft him. He apparently had something worked out with one team where they were going to try to get him to fall to them at a certain pick by creating the illusion he was unsignable. The Nats called the bluff but now there is six-figure gap in signing bonus money already betweens the Nats and Nieto/agent
