2012 MLB Draft Discussion

[Goober]

Starts tomorrow night.

Draft BPA please.
Fuck the Athletics and Blue Jays for their late interest in Joey Gallo.

[SuperKevin]

Kevin Brady, a RHP from Clemson went to my HS. I heard he's a possible 2nd round pick

[NAHSTE]

Hoping the Braves go with a high ceiling prep bat, we need positional upside in the worst way. The only other thing I care about is where Gausman ends up. I'm obviously a huge fan of The Stork.

Also, Buxton to the Twins would be fun for all. Seeing him roam Target Field would be aesthetically pleasing. He could end up like Carlos Gomez, but good.

[Woy]

Addison Russell/Stryker Trahan/Hunter Virant/Marcus Stroman

Two of those would be good at 19 and 23 for me.

[Leftwich]

Orioles better fucking draft well, pitching, pitching and more pitching.

Wouldn't mind LSU's Kevin Gausman at 4.

[EmpireWF]

All the talk with the Mets is they're looking at drafting a high school bat without any concern for $$$. Wouldn't be surprised also if they end up with a HS pitcher.

And I think they have something like 4 picks in the top 100 so hopefully at least someone ends up producing down the road. This is what we get for losing Reyes.

Take this with a grain of salt, seriously I mean it, not a good source at all:

 

JIM BOWDEN @JimBowdenESPNxm

According to source the Houston Astros are expected to select Stanford RHP Mark Appel with the first over all selection in tomorrows draft.

I thought Jeff Luhnow was better then this.

Also, Buxton to the Twins would be fun for all. Seeing him roam Target Field would be aesthetically pleasing. He could end up like Carlos Gomez, but good.

So Cesar Izturis for the PTBNL now, or next spring? :duda:

[Goober]

Best drafts: Pirates, Nationals, White Sox

worst drafts: Indians Brewers

[Goober]

This Brewer draft is a fucking disgrace.

[EmpireWF]

Talk is Appel and Boras wanted something like $8 million from Houston, so the team said fuck that.

Pittsburgh's slot can only offer him about $3 million lol

[Jntg4]

What do you all think of the Cubs draft so far?

[Woy]

Hopefully we can sign some of these high schoolers like Carson Kelly and Trey Williams.

WACHA FLACHA FLAME

[FirstTimer]

Cubs went pitching crazy.

[Leftwich]

Orioles take Ryan Ripken in the 20th round.

Son of Cal Ripken Jr duh.
