OFFICIAL DRAFT DAY DISCUSSION THREAD

Pretty sure he'll go higher than that.

That pick blew everyone away. Ryan Howard clone...especially the swing.

Jacob Nix to the Padres. :mrgreen:

I bet he signs this time.

Schoenfield answered my question about last night's results.

There goes Phillip Pfeifer to LA! They like their Vandy guys.

Two Vandy guys go off the board back-to-back. Wiseman to the Nats.

 

[Jaypers]

One of my personal cheeseballs, Demi Orimoloye, to the Brew crew. Very toolsy Canuck.

Mac Williamson, meet Mac Marshall. Headed to SF.

 

[Jaypers]

The guy with the coolest name in this entire class headed to Oakland - Skye Bolt.

 

[Jaypers]

Mariano's kid to the Nats.

 

[Jaypers]

Dig up your 2010 Bowman Chrome USA Ryan Burr autos, he's headed to AZ.

 

[Jaypers]

Toolsy OF Joe McCarthy to TB. Back injury dropped him to the 5th.

 

[Jaypers]

Kirk Gibson's kid drafted by Detroit.

 

[Jaypers]

Nick Shumpert (son of Terry) to the Tigers in the 7th.

 

[Jaypers]

The guy with perhaps the most power in this year's class, Kolton Kendrick, just drafted by the Twins in the 8th.

Yay ! Now he and A.J. Vanegas are with the Dodgers, two of my USA guys I've been on for 5 years or so. Woohoo ...

@hive17

Canuck-Nigerian to be precise. It would be cool if he made the show and became the first African-born player in MLB history.

I've seen a couple of tweets claiming he could be the steal of the draft.

Another USA BB alum.

No Burr but do have a Fulmer, and a Bergman & Cecchini dual Bowman Sterling (sticker).

Local kid gets drafted by the Jays in the 10th rd- Owen Spiwak played for Odessa College. It's odd to see a Canuck playing in the middle of nowhere. Surprised to see how many Canadians have been drafted so far.

All the "present day" players (Charlie Hayes, Phil Nevin, Mariano Rivera, et al) having kids in the draft is a bit disconcerting.
