It's not surprising that the draft is looking different than many mock boards due to the lack of 2020 data to go off of due to the lack of games to evaluate.
Elias is clearly not afraid to go with a guy with one plus plus tool (power) which is a bit surprising for the #2 overall pick. His hit tool is probably plus as well, but the K-BB ratio prior to his short junior year makes him a bit of question mark when he has to face professional pitching on a nightly basis.

Didn't see today's game in it's entirety but I will say this. I feel 100% more confident with Mateo playing second and turning a DP rather than JH right now. JH will be fine there. In time. But even forgetting his hitting, D wise he just isn't there yet.
And yes I know the metrics say he is fine. But to me, using the eye test, he looked very shaky fielding and throwing,
I like Kevin. He is constantly improving.
My only beef is that he doesn't seem to understand that a foul ball isn't always out of play. A ball can be hit foul, but still be in the field of play.
My preferred day 3 WR would have been Troy Franklin, but he apparently had a bad combine on positional drills (which might have been because he had the flu.) And he got picked by Denver pretty early.
Devontez Walker is kind of intriguing. He's 6'2", barely. A bit on the skinny side but ran in the mid-4.3s. His route tree is pretty limited, mostly short quickouts/slants and go/post routes. But he's really good at the deep routes. Sort of a discount DK. He's reported to have good hands and good deep ball tracking ability as well. We have to see how that translates in the pro game.
Adley looks way more energized and McCann is veteran catcher who is good defensively and handles the pitchers well. Doesn't really make sense to wear Adley out when the O's are using him at the top of the lineup.
