Kyle Zimmer goes #5 to Kansas City.

Should we go after Appel if he's still there at #9? :lol

why is Appel dropping?

Heaney, ftw.

There goes Mr. Miami.

Albert Almora goes #6 to the Cubs.

why is Appel dropping?

 

Sign-ability issues. If Appel falls to us and we take him, I'll do backflips! Update: Still on the board at 7.

Since a lot of people are already saying Fried to the Padres at 7 is probably going to happen, and Dahl to the Pirates at 8, I'm not sure who the Marlins will go and get. The Oklahoma St. pitcher (Heaney)? Wacha from Texas A&M?

 

Doubt the Marlins grab Appel even if available. Dealing with Boras is a pain in the butt.

I have a weird feeling Almora is going to be a very good baseball player.

I personally want Heaney he's already developed and proved his stuff in college. I feel like Fried is more of a risky pick coming out of high school.

Dealing with Boras is a pain in the butt.

 

Who cares? He's the best pitching prospect in the draft and was projected #1 overall. You don't pass up on that talent.

Rumor is that Boras is bullying teams into not picking Appel so that he falls to the Washington Nationals with the 16th pick.

 

And the Padres take Fried. Rumors were the Marlins definitely wanted this kid more than just about any other player.

Max Fried to San Diego at #7.

Forget that. Take this kid and force him to sign on the dotted line!

And if he doesn't sign, we get a compensation pick next year, right?

Unclear with the new CBA and more changes yet to come.

This is how I feel... I mean what agent isn't a pain in the butt?

Offer him a deal he can't refuse.

Damn pirates

Mark Appel finally gets taken at #8 overall by Pittsburgh.

Appel is gone.

And the Pirates steal him right from our grasp.

Offer him a deal he can't refuse.

 

There's a cap now for draft signings.

The Pirates have a SCARY group of young pitchers. If only they could score some runs...

I bet Heaney is the pick now.
