The season is upon us, even if spring is not.

2018 MLB Draft Picks
#18
#33 - Compensation (Eric Hosmer)
#34 - Compensation (Lorenzo Cain)
#40 (Competitive Balance Round A)

018 Draft Names to Watch

RHP Kumar Rocker, N Oconnee HS, Georgia.
Spoiler!

OF Jarred Kelenic, Waukasha West HS, WI
Spoiler!

1B Triston Casas, American Heritage HS (FL).
Spoiler!

RHP Carter Stewart, Eau de Gallie HS (Ga).
Spoiler!

ANY Any, Any (Any). Any current top projected pick who slides for injury concerns. Includes current top prospect prospect SP Brady Singer, U of Florida.

Current Prospects to Watch:

OF Seuly Matias - Huge tools. Hit 2 HR in Lexington (A) season opener.

1B Nick Pratto - Top pick in 17 has advanced approach and good glove; needs to start tapping into power in first full year in minors. Also at Lexington.

OF Michael Gigliotti - Good defender in CF, good OBP skills, plus baserunner. Next mainstay in CF for KC, IMO. Advanced college bat also starting at Lexington.

OF Khalil Lee - Probably has highest upside in Royals' system. Could hit 30 HR in majors, could steal 30 bases. Plus defensive ability in RF. Nice test at Wilmington this year.

3B Emmanuel Rivera - Really nice approach and good contact skills. Power is still developing. Also getting a good test at Wilmington.

SP Foster Griffin - Made nice strides in 2017. Needs to continue to progress in 2018. Could be a lefty version of Jakob Junis (good breaking ball that he can really manipulate, OK fastball, good command).

1B Samir Duenez - Duenez still is intriguing, hoping for a step forward in his power production this year at Northwest Arkansas, which would turn him into a legit prospect.

Others to keep an eye on:
SP Gerson Garabito (Wilmington), OF Marten Gasparini (Lexington), C MJ Melendez (Lexington), RP Tyler Zuber (lexington), RP Richard Lovelady (Omaha), SP Dan Tillo (Lexington), SS Nicky Lopez (NWA), SP Scott Blewett (NWA), OF Brewer Hicklen (Idaho Falls),

In general, Lexington and Wilmington are the most interesting spots to watch. Nice depth and a lot of interesting pieces at both.

What I'm angry at right now is seeing Mike Moustakas likely walking for nothing after this season. The word on twitter has been that the Yankees are interested but that the asking price is too high. Lowering the asking price on a player you're about to lose is better than getting nothing at all.



I shouldn't get mad about something that hasn't happened yet, but I have zero faith that Moore will trade Duffy and Merrifield in the offseason, which absolutely should happen. I don't think Moore has any real direction he's going in, besides taking almost all college pitchers on the false premise that we can expedite the rebuild and contend in 2020-2021 (we can't). I feel like a more involved owner would put pressure on their GM to see results, however I think Glass is pretty aloof from the day to day operations as long as he keeps making money. With the new TV contract coming soon Glass is going to get some nice big paychecks, so I'm afraid the on field crap we'll see for the next 4-5 years won't be enough to motivate Glass to give Moore any ultimatums on returning to competitive baseball.

And I’ll say again that you don’t trade big valuable pieces when you’re in a contention cycle.

They could have gotten a ton for Gordon in 2012. Or Shields after 2013. Or Hosmer, Cain, Moustakas, Ventura, Perez, Duffy, Davis, Herrera after 2015.

I want them to trade Moustakas, too, but it also balances against the return. If the return is organizational filler, I have no problem keeping him. I don’t think they’re in that type of market for him right now, but the return has to be something that at least has a chance to help you down the road.

I understand your fears. I think we’ll see at least one of Merrifield/Duffy moved. But time will tell.

Major buzz on Twitter about the Royals and Brewers and Moose. If we got Brett Phillips out of it I would be ecstatic.

Damn, I'll come off as a huge whiny bitch if he gets traded after all of my bitching. Oh well.

However, the Brewers have also been in talks with the Orioles about either Gausman or their 2B (can't remember his name), so it's possible it's involved with that trade as well. I hope it's Moose though, reunite him with Cain.

Seriously though, Dayton would win the trade deadline with that move. That would probably be the first move of this deadline where I feel like the team giving up the veteran actually won the trade. I guess the Padres maybe, but they gave up about 8 years of quality relief pitching to get the Indians best prospect.

It'd be fun to see Moose and Cain back together, although I still think it's a questionable move for the Brewers. Shaw at 2B? Doesn't seem like a good idea. Phillips is a legit ML outfielder with an absolute rocket launcher on his right shoulder.

The fact that so many national writers are tweeting about Phillips being out and hinting that they're in talks about Moustakas is awfully fishy though. This is what they all do when they know something but can't officially say they know something.

Relax.

You already come off as a huge whiny bitch, regardless of what happens with Moustakas.
