I think it would be Luis Devers today. We also haven't seen Chris Clarke, Josh Burgmann, Benjamin Rodriguez, Luke Little or Koen Moreno yet. Hope they aren't (still) hurt.

In the comments after the actual Ethan Wilson pick, they mentioned that James Wood has a huge price tag. Probably takes him off the board for the Cubs, if he was ever on it. Today, Kiley McDaniel also mentioned Wood as one of the more likely well thought of prep guys making it onto campus.

I don't know if I can trust these Malcolm/Ronnier box scores.

So The Athletic says Brailyn has a left shoulder strain.

I'm really glad to see Roberts still having the spin. Guys like him and Steele that turned into spin monsters in the last 18-24 months you had to worry if they were just Spider Tack-ing. And yeah, the pen looks to be a huge strength for the foreseeable future. I'd love to get Leeper up after whatever roster-shuffling happens around the deadline. I already feel good about our young LH relievers currently in the majors, but with Nance having been (presumably) a Spider Tack guy and Wick being (presumably) dead we don't have a current young RH guy that I trust in any sort of high leverage situation. Has Nance’s spin rate fallen drastically? I know the results lately have been bad. Oh yeah.

96 with his spin and cutter is super exciting. Get him to AAA. Some really exciting RP prospects at the upper levels with high leverage/late inning potential, and it’s not just Leeper and Rodríguez.

FG has him at 19 starts in CF, 11 in RF this year (14-11 at AA) before today. He probably ends up in a corner after a few years in the majors due to his size but yeah, he should be starting at CF now over Zach Davis who isn’t a prospect.

It happens all the damn time and it’s so frustrating.

Ed Howard is still on the MB roster, not on their IL and 3/4 today.

And Morel just hit homer #3 of the day.

He needs to go to Arizona. Hopefully it’s an easy mechanical fix.
