It's that time again. Anything and everything draft related, post in this thread. It's always a blast to discuss picks here just after they're drafted.
While the crop can't hold a candle to last year's, there are still many talented players to be had this year.
Which players are you most looking forward to seeing which teams draft them?
For me, four come to mind:
1) Andrew Heaney. Arguably the top collegiate lefty this year, and plenty projectable.
2) Lewis Brinson. Possible 5-tool outfielder, might sneak into the bottom of the 1st round, more likely the sandwich round.
3) Pierce Johnson. Been reading great things about him, and put up some insane starts for Missouri State. Needs to stay healthy, though.
4) Lucas Giolito. I love the uncertainty of the wildcard. No one knows where he'll go, just that he's quite gifted and as of now, we don't know how healthy he is. Hopefully he's gotten a clean bill of health.
I would be happy to see the Rays take any of these guys.
And remember - this year, the signing deadline comes a month early, on 7/13. This will give Topps and Panini that much more time to get these kids' autographs on cards.
How about you? Who will you be watching in particular?
