Draft Night Thread

[calsnowskier]

The draft starts tonight. We pick #20, then #85 (I think)...

Going by history, since we got Cainer @ #24, we should get a kid BETTER than him tonight...

Sound reasoning. No need to assume otherwise.

This is supposed to be a deep draft. The first 3-4 rounds are supposed to be all 1st round-ish talent. Unfortunately, there is a HUGE compensatory round this year, and we have no picks

Also, it is unclear how the new slotting rules will affect the draft. A new game for the GMs to play.

Umm...because they're on the metric system?

Anyone with an ETA on when the Giants will pick? A couple of hours?

 

[calsnowskier]

Carlos Correa? Any relation to Matt Bush?

18 picks to go/5 mins per a pick...I'd say 60-90 minutes. MLB trying to make their draft mirror NFL's draft...but it is falling way short.

Looks like the Appel IS falling far from the tree...

Top 3 and his name still not called...

 

[calsnowskier]

Will the Orioles love affair with Stanford pitchers continue this year?

 

[calsnowskier]

wow...

Not even the first pitcher taken...

Was there some late news on Appel that I had not heard?

 

[calsnowskier]

Wow...

The plunge continues...

5 picks down, no Appel. 2 Pitchers already off the board.

 

[calsnowskier]

Not even the first Bay Area pitcher taken.

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Appel falling past 6

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Appel falling past 7

 

[calsnowskier]

Without Jobs, even guys with the name of Apple are dropping like a rock...

 

[calsnowskier]

Any chance he falls to 20?

 

[calsnowskier]

3 pitchers already off the board.

What was Van Popple taken? 7? Timmeh went 9.
