I don’t think we are gonna get the #1 pick. Diamondbacks seem to be on some next level losing that we can’t even comprehend.
There’s so much time between now and then, hard to speculate who will be there for us when we pick second or third.
Arizona has won four in a row. Hope they keep it up!

I went to the doubleheader in Bowie the day before Memorial Day and was telling my buddy what a bust Cadyn Grenier is and he hit two homers, including one over the advertising boards into the woods.
We need to send you to more games.

My impression is that negotiations go on during the draft. This might be a case where Norby got nervous that he was slipping so far, and that if he slipped much further he’d be getting a good bit less than $1.7 mm. The O’s picked 41st; the 44th slot was less than $1.7 mm. At that stage of the draft each spot you drop is costing $40,000 in slot value.
Thanks! I was hoping my question wasn't a silly one. The proposition that it was possibly a deal during the draft makes far more sense to me.

Has to be a pre-draft deal--otherwise why would the player agree so quickly to take less than slot?
Why would a guy do a pre-draft deal with a team picking well below where he's "supposed" to be picked? Do these guys make multiple pre-draft deals with teams, perhaps, to cover several potential scenarios?

A great listen if you have the time.

FV 50 is average. That’s not nothing, being average is beautiful, but for the fifth pick in round 1, You home for some thing a little bit better than average. Imagine calling your parents and saying, “mom dad, I’m bringing home this… Average girl.”
MLB.com has him at 55.

A little salve for you guys who really don't like the Cowser pick.

Quick off topic: the #8 pick is ranked 39th on the latest MLB.com mock.
Takes some heat off Elias, perhaps??

Commish didn't even pronounce his first name correctly.....

Prospects Live Mock Draft 6.0
5. Baltimore Orioles
Kahlil Watson, SS, Wake Forest (HS)
One thing is certain with Mike Elias and the Orioles. They’re a pretty good bet to save some cash with their first round pick. It’s an annual exercise. Watson is believed to be a pretty safe bet to take a deal at the top of the first round. Regardless, there are scouts who believe he’s the best prep bat in the class. Watson might not be the fastest mover to the big leagues, and probably enters the fold in the middle of the Orioles upcoming window, but the Birds land a premier bat at an up-the-middle position here. We’ve heard Baltimore connected to Colson Cowser, Sal Frelick, Kumar Rocker and Harry Ford here as well.

Wanted to post this here as well as on the MLB thread, even though it pertains to a 2nd rounder. Odd development!
