June 6, 201412 yr I think there are some questions about his hitting. From what I have read he has plenty of power but making contact is an issue. He also might not stick a SS. The upside might be worth a shot though. Yeah, mainly that he isn't consistent with his swing. Has basically everything you'd want though. Only issues I've seen from scouts about future position is his size. None have said he has potential issues there, just that he is larger than normal for the spot.
June 6, 201412 yr Alright! More Hech! Seriously, thus just feel like another 'money saver' But hey, maybe we can still get Gatewood
June 6, 201412 yr That 39th pick would be nice. But yeah, I'm sure they passed on Gatewood cause of signing $.
June 6, 201412 yr Welp, looks like Blake won't be signing. Neil said if his son is not awarded with a draft opportunity that would allow him [blake Anderson] to be financially stable, he will attend Southern Miss.
June 6, 201412 yr What is this!!! I thought our front office was smart? this is a nobody. Not a college bat with numbers. A nobody High school bat. He could be anything. AJ REED. GATEWOOD. LOTS OF OPTIONS
June 6, 201412 yr Welp, looks like Blake won't be signing. Neil said if his son is not awarded with a draft opportunity that would allow him [blake Anderson] to be financially stable, he will attend Southern Miss. Maybe that's the reason they drafted him so high though.
June 6, 201412 yr Here we go again. Maybe Gatewood this time? Nevermind. I thought we were 41. OOPS. Well I got the right player. LOL
June 6, 201412 yr I really don't get it. Our organizational depth at SS from mlb to A- is pretty terrible. Gatewood was a gift.
June 6, 201412 yr Welp, looks like Blake won't be signing. Neil said if his son is not awarded with a draft opportunity that would allow him [blake Anderson] to be financially stable, he will attend Southern Miss. That's just for leverage. Although the slot for that pick should make him financially stable regardless.
June 6, 201412 yr What is going on? Who did they select 36? Some high school catcher that scouts had in the upper 100's/low 200's
June 6, 201412 yr I mean, I just looked at his numbers (because I can't find any real scouting reports on him) and they're good...But there are bigger needs and better prospects. Just feels...meh...
June 6, 201412 yr Should've drafted this kid to play football. #161 prospect on MLB.com LULZ Hech for years to come
