Bubba Starling watch
Since the MLB draft is in a week why not? Baseball gurus where do you see Starling getting drafted and what kind of money will be thrown his way? I heard momma Starling wants him to go to school but that could be posturing.

His family will say all the right things because that is what gives them leverage in negotiations.

He will go top 10, and no lower than #9 to the Cubs. I bet his bonus will be $7MM.

No way he ever steps foot on Nebraska's campus as a student.

You don't retain Scott Boras as an "adviser" and then go to college. He'll get drafted and he'll play baseball.

Supposedly the Yanks were going to give him $4M. Some reports say Starling could get twice that. I don't think so, I think it'll be in the $6M-$7M range, but that's still a big difference.

I think it's decent, but the rumors are that the Royals want pitching. Who knows at this point though because everyone is throwing out smoke signals.

He's signable for anyone as long as they show him the money. It's no surprise at this point how much he will cost, and you don't sign Scott Boras if you are not looking to get paid.

I'll be surprised if the Royals don't take him if he's there, and I think his bonus will be in the 5-6 range.

I think I have read where the Royals want a pitcher who has 3-4 years of college experience with the first round pick this year.

Starling probably represents a nightmare scenario for the Royals. If they pass, and he turns out to be a stud in the majors, the backlash could be huge, especially if whoever they select with that college experience does not pan out.

Yeah This is the huge concern. That's why the Royals decision-makers get paid the big bucks though.

A college pitcher would help us a lot faster, as Starling will need some time to develop. But if he turns into the next Josh Hamilton or Carl Crawford for another team, people are going to be PISSED.

I'm not all that confident with the Royals decision makers. Considering they passed on Tim Lincecum, Troy Tulowitski and Buster Posey in recent years.

Yeah, they only have the #1 farm system in modern history. They clearly don't know what they are doing.

A few things to consider before you make this comparison...

The current group of decision-makers had NOTHING to do with the draft the year Tulowitzki was taken. Dayton Moore was still in Atlanta. J.J. Piccolo and Mike Arbuckle were elsewhere, too.

The Tulowitzki draft, the Royals took the guy (Alex Gordon) that EVERYONE thought was the consensus No. 2 player. They would have roundly criticized for being "cheap" had they gone any other route.

The Lincecum draft, they were one of nine teams that passed on Lincecum. And the draft still was being run by the pre-Dayton Moore group. Dayton Moore had been named the GM but was not involved in the Royals draft because he had run the Braves' draft prep.

And the year they passed on Buster Posey, they draft Eric Freaking Hosmer instead. I think I can live with that.

When drafting college pitchers, injury is a huge concern since so many of them are ****ing abused by their coaches. Example: all UNC pitchers.
