  2. How'd we do, in your mind, UK? And any idea if any of the guys like Meredith, Ruth, Cornwell, Smith are remotely signable for us?
  3. Bonnin told some dude on Twitter that he'll be in Fayetteville next year. No surprise there obviously.
  4. Hatch is now at 8 6 0 0 1 7, on 85 pitches. Wow. Hope they let him finish it. Edit: Took him out, Norwood is finishing it off. Hell of an outing.
  5. Yeah, he needs to show improvement there, in the second half, for sure.

  7. And for anyone new, Wes Saver is Yags from PSD. He's the best there is at tracking down draft signing info. Stop by and thank him on Twitter. Or politely ask him to sign up here, as I do every year. http://ccdt.webs.com That's his site he keeps all of this stuff stored on.

  9. Hatch has been excellent. 6 6 0 0 1 4, on 68 pitches so far. Edit: 7 6 0 0 1 6, on 78 pitches now.
  10. 6 6 4 4 3 5 line out of Clifton. Obviously not good. But, all the damage came in the 2nd. He settled in nicely, for his last 4 at least.

  12. Our 40th rounder, which was emotionally announced by Sam Hughes, in dedication to Stan Zielinski, is named Jeffrey Passantino, a chubby, Junior RHP playing at Lipscomb. He played in the Cape Cod League last year(imagine that!) And went 6-0, with a 0.64 ERA, 55 K's and 6 walks. He was named Most Outstanding Pitcher.
  13. 38th round is a 6'9 HS LHP Russell Smith, ranked 455 by BA.
  14. We took a HS SS Ben Ramirez, ranked 199 by MLB and 259 by BA. 35th round. USC commit. We also took Junior RHP Andrew Karp, of FSU, in the 34th. He's ranked 253 by BA. Odd that he'd still be there this late. 37th round, we took a HS lefty, Alex Cornwell, ranked 498.
  15. Just took RHP Hunter Ruth, in the 32nd. HS kid recovering from TJS. Nice upside type, Florida commit. If only we had money.....
  16. 8th rounder is that 3B from MIT. But yeah, shocked no C's.
  17. https://twitter.com/AdamRHouston/status/874611945739104257 Good article on Meredith. Seems like he'd definitely turn pro for the right money. Doubtful we'll have enough, but it'd be really nice to find a way.
  18. CF Kier Meredith is a Clemson signee, ranked 215 by BA. He was also recruited by Clemson at RB. So he's another guy that'd be insurance on Estrada.
  19. 2B Jared Young seems like a really solid pick in the 15th. Hughes seems like a nice get in the 16th too. Chris Singleton had a down year, but seems like a decent pick. And an easy guy to pull for.(his mom was killed in the 2015 SC church shooting)
  20. If I'm not mistaken, he's the first guy we've taken today to even be on BA's top 500. I guess he's possible Estrada insurance? If we were planning on signing him, I'm sure we'd have taken him earlier.
  21. I don't know what thread this goes in, but its awesome.
  22. Ah, I'm not sure about this since we don't know how much Estrada is demanding, but I don't think the Cubs have enough to sign Estrada and a $500-$600K HS pitcher. I like Estrada and who really knows what will happen? Maybe Estrada will develop into a solid #3 starter and Enlow never makes it to the big leagues. Maybe neither one will make it to the big leagues... Just right now at this moment I wish the Cubs had drafted Enlow in the 2nd round + some pitcher in the 6th round over taking Estrada in the 6th + C. Abbott in the 2nd. Yeah, I can't really disagree with that. It'll be fun watching the bonuses play out, see what our actual options were.
