FWIW Peroda and Brothers have a lot of similarities, could see him here too. Interesting is right....

Tim Wheeler, Mike Trout and Jared Mitchell in order seem the most plausible. Hamilton is my sleeper mojo magick pick.
  6. Mephistopheles
    I can see them taking Stassi or Myers too btw.
  7. Mephistopheles
    Trout, Brothers and Williams are my best guesses.
  8. Mephistopheles
    let's hope mitchell slides (and scheppers)

The Astros are about as unpredictable as they come with their picks. And their system shows that. God-awful.

If it's not one of those four, super sleepers are Joe Kelly and Matt Davidson.

    Correct. 1-1) WAS - Stephen Strasburg, RHP - SDSU 1-2) SEA - Dustin Ackley, 1B/OF - UNC 1-3) SD - Donovan Tate, OF - GA HS 1-4) PIT - Tony Sanchez, C - BC 1-5) BAL - Matt Hobgood, RHP - CA HS 1-6) SF - Zach Wheeler, RHP - GA HS 1-7) ATL - Mike Minor, LHP - Vandy 1-8) CIN - Mike Leake, RHP - ASU 1-9) DET - Jake Turner, RHP - MO HS 1-10) WAS - Drew Storen, RHP - Stanford 1-11) COL - Tyler Matzek, LHP - CA HS 1-12) KC - Aaron Crow, RHP - FWC 1-13) OAK - Grant Green, SS - USC 1-14) TEX - Matt Purke, LHP - TX HS 1-15) CLE - Alex White, RHP - UNC 1-16) ARI - Bobby Boechering, 3B - FL HS 1-17) ARI - AJ Pollock, OF - ND 1-18) FLA - Chad James, LHP - OK HS 1-19) STL - Rex Brothers, LHP - Lipscomb Why not? They've been big on college lefties this year. That gives us Paxton and Brothers. They could be the team to select Scheppers or Gibson. I really think they're going college left side arm. Jenkins and Arnett are the WCs. Super WC is Jared Mitchell.

That leaves Trout, James, Skaggs and Mier in that order. Tim Wheeler might entice them enough to go out of the prep market.

    if they go pitching i think jenkins, arnett or gibson
  17. Mephistopheles
    Good call. 1-1) WAS - Stephen Strasburg, RHP - SDSU 1-2) SEA - Dustin Ackley, 1B/OF - UNC 1-3) SD - Donovan Tate, OF - GA HS 1-4) PIT - Tony Sanchez, C - BC 1-5) BAL - Matt Hobgood, RHP - CA HS 1-6) SF - Zach Wheeler, RHP - GA HS 1-7) ATL - Mike Minor, LHP - Vandy 1-8) CIN - Mike Leake, RHP - ASU 1-9) DET - Jake Turner, RHP - MO HS 1-10) WAS - Drew Storen, RHP - Stanford 1-11) COL - Tyler Matzek, LHP - CA HS 1-12) KC - Aaron Crow, RHP - FWC 1-13) OAK - Grant Green, SS - USC 1-14) TEX - Matt Purke, LHP - TX HS 1-15) CLE - Alex White, RHP - UNC 1-16) ARI - Bobby Boechering, 3B - FL HS 1-17) ARI - AJ Pollock, OF - ND I have no idea where Scheppers goes. My best guess is St Louis. Davidson, Trout, Jenkins and Heathcott are possible.
  18. Mephistopheles
    Ive seen him live. I like him more out of HS than I did Kazmir.
  19. Mephistopheles
    I figured it was between Purke and Miller. Bonus be damned. 1-1) WAS - Stephen Strasburg, RHP - SDSU 1-2) SEA - Dustin Ackley, 1B/OF - UNC 1-3) SD - Donovan Tate, OF - GA HS 1-4) PIT - Tony Sanchez, C - BC 1-5) BAL - Matt Hobgood, RHP - CA HS 1-6) SF - Zach Wheeler, RHP - GA HS 1-7) ATL - Mike Minor, LHP - Vandy 1-8) CIN - Mike Leake, RHP - ASU 1-9) DET - Jake Turner, RHP - MO HS 1-10) WAS - Drew Storen, RHP - Stanford 1-11) COL - Tyler Matzek, LHP - CA HS 1-12) KC - Aaron Crow, RHP - FWC 1-13) OAK - Grant Green, SS - USC 1-14) TEX - Matt Purke, LHP - TX HS 1-15) CLE - Rex Brothers, LHP - Lipscomb We'll see a college guy here. Brothers would be the best signable-ish guy left if they go arms here. White and Scheppers may have priced themselves out of Cleveland but he's higher on their board one would think and theyd take him if they can stomach the price. Tim Wheeler and possibly Bobby Boechering could go here if they're looking in on hitters. A sleeper here is Eric Arnett, a bit early for him. Jason Kipnis as well.

Purke is the best prospect, IMO, but he's floating big bonus demands, that usually doesn't deter the Rangers though. They could also be the team to pop Alex White if he's falling because of demands, ditto on Scheppers. I fully expect a pitcher to be selected here.
  21. Mephistopheles
    Well they usually have a lot of money to spend on the draft, surprisingly. They aren't that cheap. I'm thinking White must be throwing up a out of line bonus demand. As for the A's. Green, Scheppers, Wheeler and sleeper Raley remain possibilities. The A's have enough money to take anyone btw. FWIW, dont be shocked to here Kipnis....

    ive had them in on green for awhile now. i backed off turner and got burned.

Rumors have them big on Jenkins, but is he better than White? White (must) be floating a HUGE bonus. He could continue to slide.
