    Here's to hoping Conforto becomes the next Choo at the plate if we take him. I'd take those odds at this point.

    Bystro:

    These early picks are also some of our biggest trade chips. Pick BPA, and by next June you might talk about this pick being one of the main chips for Stanton or some other attractive trade target.

    Arguello, so take it with a grain of salt:

    top 15 or 10 aren't exactly inspiring descriptions in the world of the mlb draft i get that this draft really falls off after 3, but aside from turner (and hoffman), gordon is the last guy i'd want of the guys who have been talked about. we can imagine those things, but we can also imagine just getting crappy players because there are a lot of those TT is being too conservative. BA has Gordon at #7 (with Hoffman at #6), Kiley McDaniel has him at #4, MLB.com has him at #5 and PG's April 16th ranking had him at #9 (pre-Hoffman TJS [#4] and pre-Beede's [#6] second half implosion). Law has him at 5 too. 4th on his personal rankings. Chris Crawford just released his final rankings and has Gordon at #3. http://mlbdraftinsider.com/2014/06/the-final-2014-board-probably/ I'm perfectly fine with him. Plus to plus-plus defender/arm, advanced approach at the plate, showing more pop since he's added the weight. From the intel available, he's got pretty much everything you can ask for from a SS outside of plus-plus power, but let's be clear, it's not like he's Tony Campana up there either. I think we get a little spoiled expecting everyone to be Javy or KB.

    I'm afraid to look.
  7. RammyFanny
    Yeah, Morris looks pretty bad.
  8. RammyFanny
    Nah. Law says the owner told them to take Rodon if he's there, and Mayo says there is still alot of buzz with Kolek even though he mocked them Jackson.
  9. RammyFanny
    MLBTR summarizing a Law podcast. He pretty much said so in his mock too.

    Law also just put Harvey as the #10 prospect in baseball, right after Bryant and Baez: http://insider.espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/10996551/minnesota-twins-outfielder-byron-buxton-no-1-top-25-prospect-ranking-mlb

    I forget which AA we usually refer to as AA at this point.
  12. RammyFanny
    ESPN did a 2013 redraft (Bryant #1 of course), and listed Hunter Harvey at #3: http://insider.espn.go.com/fantasy/baseball/story/_/id/11001583/fantasy-baseball-kris-bryant-jonathan-gray-top-prospects-2013-draft Edit: I guess it's a redraft for "fantasy" purposes, but I imagine it'd be roughly the same either way.

    I spent about 10 seconds wondering how that would affect Arismendy Alcantara.
  14. RammyFanny
    The only excuse I can make is that I doubt other teams fans understand the extent of how different of a pitcher he has become over the years.
  15. RammyFanny
  16. RammyFanny
    Kyle's still got it.
  17. RammyFanny
    Goodness
  18. RammyFanny
    They are over .500 and 1.5 games out of the division lead with Stanton playing MVP level baseball. I don't think they're in a rush to get rid of him at the moment.
  19. RammyFanny
    Bowden, and I think it's just who he'd take. http://insider.espn.go.com/blog/the-gms-office/post?id=9471

    I liked the "pitches well enough to lose" line the most.
  21. RammyFanny
    That FIP of course being 2.79, 14th best in MLB. http://www.oriooli.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/stupid-gifs-6.gif

    Does he have a [expletive] mullet? Going for the Clint Frazier look it seems like.
  23. RammyFanny
    Law's day of the draft mock for 2013: I also remember him inferring the Twins would probably take Kohl Stewart and referenced their super heavy scouting on him. I brought up the Cubs scouting the hell out of Bryant to him on Twitter and he essentially said "due diligence" and stuck by what he said in one of his chats that the Cubs weren't "on" him like they were with the pitchers. Although this was probably two weeks or so before the draft. Translation: He probably has good intel on some teams, but I doubt the Cubs are one.

    Stupid Tennessee. Kirk gives up a single. Guy gets bunted over to second. Wild pitch by Kirk gets him to third. Then one intentional walk, which is the right move. But then they intentionally walk the next guy as well to load them up. Kirk promptly 4 pitch walks the next guy to walk in the winning run and deny Bryant his 6th AB.
