    There goes one college bat (SS/2B Will Wilson) I like. Well, at least he didn't go to a team in the division.

    Remember when the draft was just a conference call that took roughly 45 minutes?

    The draft is proceeding like we expected for the most part. It'll start getting more murky and unpredictable now. Mets taking Brett Baty (good HS bat).

    Jim Callis just comped Bobby Witt Jr. to the Royals as being as impactful as Patrick Mahomes to the KC Chiefs lol. He took it from another scout and liked it. Yeah, I don't know about that...

    Adley Rutschman goes #1 to the Orioles like we all expected. I hope he gets almost the full signing bonus there because he deserves it.

    [tweet] [/tweet]I think this is just posturing; they're going to choose Adley. It'd be stupid to select anyone else at #1 IMO. Fun fact: Kody Hoese grew up a Cubs fan. Quinn Priester too. Both are huge Cubs fans.

    Keith Law update to his latest mock draft: Much rather have Braden Shewmake over Logan Davidson. I keep saying this, but I really doubt we take a HS pitcher at #27. It's not that great a draft class in terms of pitching.

    http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/26867121/maddon-critical-plate-umpire-laz-diaz-loss Not sure where to put this, but bitching about the umps seems to fit here. I honestly do not get Maddon at times like this. Okay, you're complaining about a missed call in a crucial moment. You're complaining about the performance of the ump there. You said it was a strike and not even a borderline pitch. Just a few games ago you mentioned implementing some technology or something to see if a batter checked their swing or went too far on strike 3... So why the hell are you against an electronic (automated) strike zone especially when your own players, like Ben Zobrist, are in favor of it? I think I know the answer -- Maddon really isn't as progressive as the media portrayed him as before he got to Chicago. That reputation was completely made up. He probably likes the stupid "human element" angle that old-school types use against implementing an automated strike zone. I hate umps (and their lack of transparency and accountability), but I also hate players/managers/execs who argue against adopting a superior technological solution to counter shitty strike zones/bad calls made by umps.

    https://www.mlb.com/news/cubs-2019-mlb-draft-preview?t=mlb-pipeline-coverage That's kinda interesting -- the part where he says "there have been high school players that we had right there with Nico" part. I wonder if he was talking about Jordan Groshans or Nolan Gorman from last year's draft? That gives me hope that the Cubs might take a high-upside HS player if the advanced college bats are all taken before their pick.

    [tweet] [/tweet]There's a video in the link of Alzolay getting his 8th strikeout of the game. He should be called up sometime soon.

    [tweet] [/tweet] I'm not exactly sure if this performance moved Langeliers up the draft boards. He's ranked #10 on MLB.com's list already. It's pretty late in the scouting process so I doubt this moves the needle much. The Cubs definitely have no shot at him.

    [tweet] [/tweet]I'm super delighted he did this against the Cards, but why can't he do this more often?

    [tweet] [/tweet]Not Cubs related, but it's funny how Detroit was contemplating taking someone else at #1 in last year's draft like Jarred Kelenic (who is also raking and doing really well). I think Mize is ready to come up right now. The kid has filthy stuff and AA/AAA won't pose a challenge.

    [tweet] [/tweet]I haven't listened to all of it yet. The next mock draft (4.0) should be up Monday morning.

    He really is THAT good. Baltimore would be stupid to take anyone else at #1 IMO. [tweet] [/tweet][tweet] [/tweet]
