2018, Ammy Draft Chatter

Suns take the young, lefty, Russian SS Kharlamov. Quality pitchers seem off the board for quite a while at this point...

Great pick. Really liked this guy. Not sure what will be available at pick 13 and 17.

[recte44]

Come on, Carolina.

[aaronweiner]

Couldn't turn down Banuelos. He's too much like players like Andrew Ivey and William Kidd, great intangibles.

Probably better than the reliever I turned down at #7 last year, so I imagine I'll sign him.

[JohnC]

Took the 'Village Idiot' ... if he develops he will be a prototypical leadoff hitter. Should hit for a high .AVG...OBP...and steal a ton of bases. Hopefully he will learn to play 2B

[crobillard]

You all are too good at drafting. Stop it.

[Cliche]

Blech. Glad I have a decent prospect base because the draft isn't gonna be much help.

[crobillard]

I was hoping I would be able to replenish in this draft due to trading my spects away to Omaha last season and the awful ammy draft, but not going to happen this year.

I like Newman Watson, though.

Hint, it's not going to get much better in the next few years if you look at College and High School.

[Cliche]

Yeah I noticed that Recte. Will have to adjust my plans somewhat. I was hoping to net one real stud but I'm not sure that'll happen.

Thanks Aaron, I think he can be a solid first baseman if he develops. I do like switch-hitters.

[aaronweiner]

Remember, some of these guys come out of nowhere to be stars, or at least average pros. It's not all about the first round.

[crobillard]

Jones is not my favorite type of pick, but looks like he'll be a decent hitter and can draw walks, not many in this draft have the last trait. Hopefully he will work out.

I see we ended up with C Sam Adams with the fourth overall pick in the draft. I'm happy with that.

Plus, what an impressive moustache for a 17 year old.

[bschr682]

A sweet moustache? How is he not on Omaha? Well Mr. I want a whole team with sweet moustaches?

Who doesn't a full team of awesome moustaches? They've begun creeping into my coaching staff too now that I promoted Nate O'Neal to the big league bench coach spot.
