  1. I think my preferred scenario is better than getting Enlow. If you get Estrada AND a guy like Strider, Lacy, Rutledge, Drohan, or some other HS arm with upside, you're better off than just getting Enlow. Again, its hopeful, on my end. Don't know if its possible or not. But, I'd take Estrada, plus another 500-600ishK type over Enlow.
  2. lebron just averaged a triple double against teh best team ever assembled Mike would have averaged a quadruple triple.

  4. Its really interesting....Truly hard to guess at what we've got guys agreed to monetarily.....Here's my guesses. Little-2.2 As a soph, he's got a little negotiating power.(173,300 under) Lange-2.0 (184,300 under) Abbott-.500 (401,900 under) Thompson-slot Would have said less, but Boras.... Uelman- .300(82,300 under) Velazquez- .250(35,800 under) Wouldn't have said this, but he doesn't have a college commitment) Estrada- Literally no idea, but I'd guess a mill+ Thomas- .150 (25,500 under) Filiere-slot Carrier-.050 (87,500 under) Glowicki-.050(81,300 under) This is a prediction, but also an exercise, to see where we may be at.....971,900 under, plus 372,700 overage.....That'd leave a total of 1,344,600 to play with. Estrada has a slot of 222,600. In this scenario, we could give him a tad over 1.5. Hopefully, its closer to the 1-1.2 range, which would still give us between 300-500k for 11-40. Obviously, a complete guess. Little and Lange may be getting slot, but I'm hoping this is close. I guess there's a slim chance Estrada is agreeing to 700-800k. At any rate, even if he decided against signing, we should be in pretty good shape to grab some backup plans tomorrow, even if we'd lose his slot. In a perfect world though, is we can get him AND still have room for a Clifton level over slot tomorrow.
  5. Burks goes 3-4, with a walk. OPS at .864 now.

  7. Alzolay was fantastic. 7 5 0 0 2 6, on 89 pitches.
  8. Assuming we're taking college juniors for the most part in the next 10 rounds or so, here's MLB's group that are still there from their top 200..... 89 Bryce Montes de Oca- RHP Missouri 128 Donovan Casey- RF Boston College 139 Chris Williams-C Clemson 145 Colby Fitch-C Louisville 152 David Parkinson-LHP Ole Miss 155 Keith Rogalla-RHP Creighton 171 JJ Schwarz-C Florida 189 Will Kincanon-RHP Indiana State It'd be nice to grab one or two from that group. Here are the college sophomore eligible and JC guys from that list.... 53 Tristan Beck-RHP Stanford 58 Blaine Knight-RHP Arkansas 102 Jake Mangum -LHP Miss State 143 Jordan Spicer-RHP Polk County JC 164 Riley Thompson-RHP Louisville 177 Griffin Roberts-RHP Wake Forest That groups harder to sign obviously.

  10. Senior signs in the 9th and 10th. OF and a RHP.
  11. Until I read a bit on him, I thought Theo had drafted a FO guy.
  12. Its good news, under SOME circumstance. We just don't know what that circumstance truly is yet. We've obviously got some over slot to spend and are gambling on Estrada(unless he's just trying to say what he thinks he should even though he's turning). We'll take a few backup plans tomorrow and if Estrada doesn't sign, we'll lose a bit of money(230ish), but we'll spend the rest of our savings on something else cool.

  15. Skoug just went. Callis made it sound like he'll get over slot. At least from where he was just taken.
  16. Love popping a highly thought of pitcher(sorry Raisin), if we've got room for anything else fun, I'll be surprised.
  17. If he's still there, you have to take Skoug, right? That said, there must be something going on with him. No idea why he's still out there.
  18. I don't know anything about him, but he's ranked 296 by BA. So he'll get drafted. Likely today. Thanks! I hadn't seen any hype about him draft wise, Tillo being the only guy from around here being talked about really. Hey man, he just got picked in the 6th by the Astros.

  20. So, this guy probably IS an over slot, on some level.
  21. Isn't he a 4th year Junior? It'd be really tough, if he is.....
