I will probably throw things if they draft Enrique Bradfield.

Yes, he's got a high floor because the defense is so good, even if he's a legitimate bad offensive player like Billy Hamilton, he's still a 2 win player.

But shit, let's not act like it is so hard to find a glove-first CF. Michael A. Taylor. Kevin Kiermaier. Etc.

Isn't that pretty much what Kyle Isbel is already?

And if it mattered that much you could have traded a sack of shit for Christian Pache who is all glove and no bat.

Yes and yes.

It's why the idea of drafting Bradfield "because floor! and save money!" drives me nuts.

If you want to save money to lure a prep off a commitment at 44, cool. Just draft a player with more upside than this guy.

I watched some video on Houck he does have a really nice swing so I could see the idea on that one.

I'd take ****in Tommy Troy before I took Bradfield.

I doubt Sherman's Palace in downtown will have the same outfield as Kauffman, so I don't think a Bradford type would be as needed.

If you're going to suck, do it quickly. 8 hits, 2 walks, 14 Ks by both teams combined.

I guess at least he's trying to "keep his eye on the ball"......

Serious question: should the hitting coach have been fired already? I wish someone would tell the players there’s no such thing as a 5 run home run.

The Royals stink but Elly De Le Cruz is amazing.

BWJ coming up in the 9th for his shot at the cycle.

And double is what he needs. Not out of question....

Getting kneecapped by a foul ball has to suck in the worst way.
