Well looks like Gunnar was a fraud. Next! 

Seriously though, I wonder how long it will take for a high school player like Gunnar to adjust from aluminum to wood bats.

He hit well in showcase play last summer with wood. It's more of getting back in the groove of facing live pitching and then consistently better stuff/command than he's used to facing.

Ah, Adley has mono.

Stuff definitely makes more sense now.    That sucks, hope he's feeling better soon.

Cool. I figured a prospect at his level had experience with wood bats, but keeping up with baseball prospects isn't exactly a hobby of mine.

Just a guess but now I wonder if his first game in Aberdeen will be July 23. Let’s him play a game or 2 in Sarasota before heading up.

Guess he kissed the wrong person when celebrating draft day.

[Frobby]

Geez, the can’t miss no. 1 pick has mono.    Only with the Orioles!   Is there really such a thing as a “mild case” of mono?

[UpstateNYfan]

Mild case of mono?? Is that like mildly being pregnant?

Me and one other OH'er picked CJ as our 1-1

Long way to go, but I loved the idea of a plus speed, plus defense CF'er
