Pierce Johnson starting for Iowa.

Myles Jack or Shaq Lawson. Lawson makes sense if you're unsure about Jack's knee but I think someone would still take a chance in the top ten.

Good timing on the Eagles trade. The Chargers select Laremy Tunsil, OT, Ole Miss.

I imagine he's ready to get called up to Tennessee. At worst, one more start in Arizona.

The two hits he gave up yesterday were an infield single and a bunt single.

Happ is actually at high A. He just started hitting well and the questions about contact ability are still there. I imagine he'll spend at least a half season at Myrtle Beach.

The LA Rams take Jared Goff, QB, Cal.

Not surprising things turned around. [tweet] [/tweet]

It comes full circle. Hammel burns Lackey in Game 4 and now Lackey gets Leake.

Just like Game Two *clap clap clap*

Book's out on Cubs hitters. Just throw strikes.

And pound the right handed batters box if a lefty is up, get it called a strike.

Need to bump Lester ahead of Ross in the lineup.

I'd suggest adding Rashad Crawford to future polls.
