Day 1 draft thread

[Sports Guy]

Baez to Cubs.

Also, I'm keeping a running list of BA's best available that I'll post occasionally.

Bud: "...of the 2000 First-Year Draft."

Ugh.

[RVAbird]

So was the talk connecting us to Archie Bradley earlier today legit or were the guys that were reporting it just blowing smoke?

Not smoke. Orioles definitely made contact and performed due diligence.

But, as I said earlier, Bundy was their guy all the way. Top pitcher on their board.

[Tank]

Is that a good pick by the Cubs? I don't know anything about him.

Olney tweet:

Let's have speculation fun on Nats' 2013 OD lineup: 1B Fielder, 2B Rendon, SS Espinosa, 3B Zimmerman, RF Harper, P Strasburg

I say take the best player available no matter whos blocking him. He can always be used as a big trade chip down the line if it comes to it. Talent is talent. Good for the Gnats.

AgentO is bigger than Rendon and has more power. First Base is not his home.

Yep....You, not the national guys, had that one right the whole time.

Kudos to you.

Bit of a reach, but very defensible in my opinion.

Bundy on MLBN now.

They were sure that pitching was going first, and would have taken Archie if Dylan were gone. They were not going Positional.

What's up with the Oklahoma cheeks?

Bundy on MLBN now.

Please post it.

Someone had Spangenberg to the Padres in the predict the top ten thread. Great call there.
