Draft discussion? Who the **** talks baseball draft? It's all a big crapshoot. The 22nd rounder can end up being way better than the 1st rounder.

Beautiful catch Gordon. |
In late, but what a catch by Gordon.
Ventura just hit 100mph. |
And he walks him.....
|
OK, just throw the ball..
|
Come on Ace, avoid trouble here
|
Boom! Beautiful.
|
Lot of pitches, but no damage done.
|
Got out of it, thankfully. Didn't like his approach on a 2 outs.
|
Probably going to be another long night for our stud offense
|
How much longer is Ned going to bat Hosmer 3rd? I'd would seriously consider swapping him and Cain.

WTF

What the hell Molina?
|
Doink!
|
Holy shit. That wasn't good.
|
Poor Aoki ROFL
|
Oh sheesh it was a lobbed ball. Get the **** off the ground.
|
Aoki would be an excellent addition to the Japanese dive team
|
I want to see locain at the top. Aoki has been quite the disappointment there.

LoCain Infante Gordon Butler Perez ... that would be how I would set it up for our first 5 batters. |
3 weak ass ground balls.
|
He struck your ass out.
|
PAH!
|
I really would like to see Hawk and Hud in a booth....naw maybe not it would be painful
|
Man Ventura is fun to watch
|
Whats the story on Ventura? Why wasn't he drafted? How did every MLB team pass on him 40+ times?
|
Bourjos comes through again.
|
The first time I've seen Cain not cut off a ball.
|
Ump better put that same squeeze on the Cards
|
Quote:
His fastball when he signed sat at 80 mph. |
So excited to see who the next Royals draft bust will be!

Sal Perez is shit at the plate as well.
|
We need more road games.
|
Almost time for GM DM to **** up another draft pick
|
over/under % that the Royals select a pitcher?
|
Hey gang.

And the Royals are on the clock...
|
Wow, must be nice to be able to put bats on it and drive it forward as often as the Cards are doing right now.
Like they said a little while back, we either look at, or foul-back, most of their pitcher's mistakes. |
t minus 90 seconds 'til our pick is in. holding my effing breath........

JJ Cooper @jjcoop36
It's Brandon Finnegan to the Royals coming up. |

Ok, so the Royals drafted another reliever. Big deal.

The royals drafted a reliever/closer at 17

LHP Brandon Finnegan, TCU
Finnegan's fastball sits in the low-to-mid-90s and now -- thanks to an assist from Team USA teammate and third overall pick Carlos Rodon -- rocks an impressive slider. He also mixes in a change. Due to his size (5-foot-11, 184 pounds), there have been some durability concerns. (He did miss a few starts with shoulder trouble this spring.) Still, some scouts see him as a No. 2 starter in the majors eventually, and with pitching at such a premium these days, that's pretty attractive. |

I would say Finnegan was taken at 17 to save money to get somebody who falls at 28 and 40.

Zo looks silly when they throw him any sort of off speed pitch.
|
Damn. That was smoked.
|
Tough luck.
