I'm really looking forward to following this guy. This is ambitious, but I think Amaya could be our best prospect in a few years. I really like the scouting reports and hope the Cubs don't rush him. It takes a while for catching prospects to develop.

It's hard to see the Cubs jumping up into the top ten. Maybe if the guy the Cubs take in the first round of this year's draft blows up and dominates and Aramis Ademan takes a huge leap and goes all the way to AA. Even still I think the Cubs would be ranked in the teens somewhere. Another thing is the Cubs aren't going to be making trades to bolster the farm system during the season. -
We all know the "real" NBA Finals will be Rockets v Warriors in the WCF. I hope the Warriors are fully healthy by that point. The Cavs will probably advance to the Finals, but this might be their last rodeo. I think Lebron is leaving (I have no clue where) 'The Land' again...

I don’t even horsefeathering know half the players playing. Hopefully this means that Fred Hoiberg is suddenly an elite coach that can win no matter who plays for him We shut down Markkanen (like a smart team would do) for the season and we lose this game with all these no-name scrubs. I will say the idea of Fred Hoiberg as an elite NBA coach is pretty damn funny.

Damn it, the Bulls are winning again. Looks like they're gonna beat the Hornets. So aggravating...

2018 Draft Thread
Regular Show replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
This is from the latest chat with Longenhagen. He also mentioned this concept of Reverse Projection in a podcast on Fangraphs. So he describes Reverse Projection as a way of modeling or thinking how a prospect could get into better shape/improve their underlying athleticism that would allow them to stay at a position instead of moving down the defensive spectrum. I can think of a few examples of this. I remember Addison Russell put on some good weight (muscle) during his junior year of HS but lost range/flexibility, and scouts started saying he would most likely have to move to 3B at the pro level. He then committed to losing weight and improving his flexibility his senior year. He worked hard to improve his flexibility/range and many scouts said he now had a good shot at sticking at SS. Well, those optimistic scouts were right. Not everyone was sold that Russell could stick at SS. I think this is a good example of reverse projection. -
This is probably how Duke feels after seeing that shitshow of a game. Might have to wait for the SuperCubs to show up...

https://www.google.com/amp/amp.si.com/nba/nba-mock-draft-2018 In this mock draft they have the Bulls taking the guy (Mikal Bridges) we all want them to take if they don't move up in the lottery. They have Trae Young going one pick later to the Knicks. They have Bagley going 5th to the Kings. In that scenario I really hope the Bulls would try to trade up to get him.

[tweet] [/tweet] Wichita State won big 14-3 against ECU. Alec Bohm went 4-for-5 with 6 RBIs and 2 HRs, and 1 BB. Hit 1 double as well. Really impressive power. Definitely boosted his rising draft stock. Greyson Jenista went 1-for-6. -
Cubs Win!!! :flythew:
-
This really does sound like Wrigley Field whenever the Cubs do something good. Cubs fans are awesome lol. Nice job Willy!
-
Schwarber is not looking good out there. Damn it, now it's tied up...
-
A first inning run -- not runs. We'll score a bunch more this game. Not worried.
-
Awesome start so far. I'm going to be pissed if any more Cubs hitters get hit. Urena is probably gone now right?
-
Best start to a Cubs season ever! Happ is going to be a monster at leadoff! I know we've used this gif already but this is how I feel right now:

[tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet] I like Cole Winn and think he's one of the top HS arms in this draft class. Doesn't quite have the same velocity as the other top HS arms in this draft though. -
My Giants fan coworker is telling everyone who'll listen that the Giants are starting Blach because he's a Dodger killer. Weird thing is I have a friend who is a big Giants fan and he's really high on Blach also. Doesn't think the Bumgarner injury will end their season. Denial and self-delusion are strong impulses in fans I guess...
-
Are any of these bold?
-
Indeed. I feel the same way. This sucks. He's a fun prospect to watch. I was hoping the Cubs might trade for this guy down the road because we all know the A's never keep any of their good starting pitchers.
-
Man you're thinking way too far ahead. We don't need to worry about life after Rizzo for awhile lol. Also, pure bats/1B only types are a pretty risky demographic for draft picks. Seth Beer is one of those type of prospects if you're into that kind of thing though.
-
I remember you hyping him up. He got off to a good start to his career and then yeah that injury seemed to impact him a lot. Bummed about Sands too. So Steele is all that's left from that big group of HS arms. Yeah, I mean you're right but we did trade Cease for something useful. I think Cease will eventually become a relief pitcher. Maybe a dominant relief pitcher. I don't have high hopes for Steele.
-
Yeah me too. He was a submarine or sidearmer right? I thought he would move through the system pretty quickly. I'm not surprised they cut Sands, but it's still disappointing.
