So, uhh, I think it's time for Danny Hultzen to move up to full season ball: https://www.thecubreporter.com/05312019/cubs-and-angels-tie-loose-ends-after-nine

BA did a staff mock too - what the staff member would personally do with the pick, not a prediction of the draft: https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/baseball-america-2019-mlb-staff-draft/

Most recent BA draft:

This is a great read. I’m gonna post a few of the most interesting things. The Kohl Franklin, Nelson Velázquez types:

It's only 24 PA but Brennen Davis has a 1.071 OPS.
