I guess thats Lynn/Miller speeds. If he can spot it like he did in high School. Thats a good pick.

![]() According to this dude anyway, he loves all things Gator. Get to play for the team you love? I guess $300K is the tipping point for a high school kid.

Maness would actually be a good comp pick if you look at the average WAR each slot turns out.

Shit. The draft is such a crapshoot.

It's a reasonable 'floor' to put on him. Ultimately every pitchers floor is 'arm flies off mid-pitch and he bleeds out on the mound' but it's fair to put something of a worst case major leaguer floor on him as well. With a heavy fastball and good command, reasonable development makes him Maness. But remember, Lance Lynn gets by on nothing but a heavy fastball and good command. So if I'm talking upside, I'm looking at Lance Lynn. There's a way of grading prospects where you put both a players 'realistic potential' and their odds of getting there. So for instance, a guy like Bryce Harper would have come out of the draft getting a 10.0(A) - generational talent and a high likelihood of reaching it. Carlos Correa would have probably been seen as a 9.0(B); he was less of a sure thing but considered almost as talented as a guy like Harper. With Woodford, I think you're looking at a 7.0(C) as opposed to Plummers 8.0(D). Now the Cards know WAY more about pitching than I do (though I've generally had a pretty good eye for arm), so maybe they see him as having a higher ceiling than I do. I'd almost think they'd have to or I don't understand why they'd go over slot for him.

Belisle to the DL with elbow inflammation and Marcus Hatley called up. The parade continues.

With Holliday coming back, is anyone gonna be shocked when we see less Bourjos and a platoon of jay and grichuk?
Maybe we can send jay to Atlanta for a fungo and a bucket of balls? |

I still say we can catch LaRussa in a moment of weakness and send him Jay for Archie Bradley.

We are never getting rid of Jay. Bible study regular.

Batting Kozma because he is RH? WTF kind of logic is that? He is hitting .140. I bet Wong is hitting way above that against LH pitching.
