I'm not a big fan of his from my amateur video scouting.

Cubs 11th rounder:

Shawon Dunston Jr.

 

[expletive]

 

Edit:

 

Apparently a fun word for the female chest region is an expletive.

Nice pick. That makes me happy.

[davell]

What's wrong with that Rob? I really liked it. Great value too.

No, I like it a lot. I was letting loose with a happy word.

One of my favorites

Sounds like it's going to be tough to keep him. Hopefully we find a way.

SS Daniel Lockhart, HSer who's Keith Lockhart's son, also a Cub scout now.

 

That's about what I weighed as a cub scout too

We're going with a lot of prep players early. That sure is different than I'm used to.

Cool. Funny exchange on PSD(Thanks to whoever it was that brought them up, solid draft coverage) We're taking lots of legacies this year. Next guy said, "I pray Koyie Hill doesn't have kids......

[davell]

Goldstein said Dunston is probably going to Vanderbilt. Let's ante up.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Maples has a 3 mill price tag.

 

Yikes, I was thinking in the 1.5 at most 1.75 neighborhood.

 

[expletive] it, take a chance. I bet if he was a golden domer we wouldnt be able to keep Hendry off of him.

Fatty fat fat

Crap, Dashorn Lake (local kid) just went to the Red Sox. The other local kid (Jake Cave) went to the Yanks.

Anything on this Jacob Lindgren?

[davell]

Lindgren was the 2nd OVERALL rated prospect in the country heading into his Junior year of HS. Wonder if he just topped out?

[davell]

By the way, we've now taken NINE High School kids out of 12 picks.

[Rob]

Another high school kid.

 

Boise and Peoria should be a lot of fun to watch the next few years.

[thefranchise]

Another High Schooler. I kinda like it

[davell]

CF TREY MARTIN from Georgia. Sounded like they called him by a different name, but that's what showed up on the tracker. Nothing on him.

I was noticing that too. The first thought I had was maybe this is a sign the Cubs are willing to wait and build slowly. Which then led me to think, maybe this means no Pujols/Fielder...

[Rob]

Wow. Great if we can sign Maples.
