waroriole, brought up whether our pick today would automatically claim the #3 spot, behind Bundy and Machado, respectively. I think he does, whether it's Gausman, Buxton, Zimmer, Correa, or Almora. With that said, I see...

1. Bundy

2. Machado

3. Our Pick

4. Delmonico

5. Schoop

6. Avery

7. Hoes

8. Wright

9. Rodriguez

10. T. Berry

I think that's true for almost anyone we pick. I could see if we landed Almora, him dipping below Delmonico and potentially Schoop. Buxton is the only one that could challenge for a Top 2 position, and that would be contingent on Machado doing poorly at AA the rest of the year and him signing early and blowing the lid off from the get-go.

I think it will be

1- Bundy

2- Machado

3- Draft Pick

4- Schoop

5- Lino

6- Delmonico

7- Bridwell

8- Avery

9- Hoes

10- Rodriguez

Or very close to that. Although, after the top 4, I could see some minor rearranging.

How about this?

I don't think this is much of a stretch. To me, the farm system after the top 5 (including our new #1), is a crap shoot.

EDIT: Whoa! Sorry...I missed Soler on that list. I think it would be great if we got him in the fold. I think he'd be #6, though.

Maybe you could provide your explanation for so obviously dropping Delmonico? The rest of your list is pretty much the same/little variation of common sense/consensus, so it stands to reason that you're trying to make a point about Delmonico here...

Most likely relegated to 1B. His bat looks very nice for a 3B, great for a 2B, and okay for a 1B. Plus, he's a long way away.

In other words, kinda like Brandon Snyder.

Fair enough, I'll just have to hope that your conservative take on him tells less of the eventual tale than the rest of the more optimistic stances out there.

      Starting point has changed.  Given the fact he has approx 1/7th of his season in the books at 1.139, to OPS just .780 for the season, he'd have to drop off to under .730 the rest of the way.  That sort of drop off wouldn't be acceptable to me. I'd like him to OPS .800 the rest of the way for roughly .850 for the season.  The more they use him in a platoon role, the better I think that number might be.

      Time Gunnar's triple

      Can I ask how you timed it vs the DVR?  Did you use a stopwatch or count click with pause/FF, or something else?

      Who is "selling" this year?

      By Philip · Posted

      I can’t fathom why anyone would want a Tanner Scott return. In 10 innings, he is 0-4 with a 1.78 whip. He was maddening before, and now he’s older. But I wonder if the Red Sox would part with Justin Slaten? He’s been pretty outstanding. Yeah, only 8 innings, but we hired Yohan Ramirez, and he’s been a catastrophe in 10. Yes, I know he’s a rule 5, and the Bosox are in the East. And their pitching is pretty thin, too. But they know they aren’t going anywhere in this division, and they might think getting a good return for a Free Rule 5 guy might be worthwhile.

      This draft unfolded weirdly.  First with the *nix guys getting taken early and then how no defensive players got taken all draft, and then a bunch of teams reaching for OTs.  I'm pretty happy with how the draft unfolded because I think we got a player that I expected to be gone by the teens or early 20s.  I don't know what we're doing with our OL but hopefully we can maybe trade up from 62 to pick someone up.

      I have it on dvr and I timed it four times. I got 10.75, 10.80, 10.74, and 10.78.

      My guess is more of a safety profile than they preferred. They clearly wanted Wiggins. They ran that pick up fast. And then when you listen to the press conference, the love for the player was obvious.
