Bruce, Hector, or Jorge?

If Conforto is there at 5 for the Twins, they better not pass him up.

Wow, I'd love for the Cubs to get Rodon! And he only has Hoffman falling to 11 after TJ surgery? I was thinking he might go 1S or 2nd rd.

I'd love to see the M's snag conforto at 6

 

[scotty216brs]

Is Casey Gillaspie brother of Conor??

 

[SINFULONE]

I wish my team could get the guy called Touki.What an awesome name.

Does Law or Olney ever write anything that doesn't have to be a stinking insider?

 

[BBCgalaxee]

Please oh please may the Mets land touki. Have a plate ready to go.

Pitching = better; Hitting = not as good.
