Padres are in a pickle. They tried to force one of their prospects, Franmil Reyes, into a corner outfield spot. His bat has now caught on fire but there's a catch - he's really not a corner outfielder. He's a first baseman.

The Pads are now talking about trading him since Hosmer is blocking him - and fans are seething.

One of the worst free agent signings of our time. Poetic justice.

Funnily enough, Hos would have blocked O'Hearn in exactly the same way. Reyes is on an O'Hearn tear right now.

The Orioles have clinched the #1 overall pick, right?

They also pulled a KU/Mizzou BBall and hired Witt's (father?). Seems like that pick might be foretold.

We clinched pick #2 today. Let's do some damage.

Sure seems like the Orioles are lining up for Witt based on the hire of his ~~dad~~ uncle and the other scouting adds who are connected.

That’s OK. He’s got tremendous potential, but a lot can happen between October and June.

If Rutschman repeats his season as a hitter, he’s an excellent prospect at #2.

Yeah let’s hope he isn’t a generational player.

But what about his clubhouse leadership?

Reportedly getting in yelling matches with his manager and yelling "Am I worth the contract now?!" within earshot of reporters is a sign of a great leader, I must say.

I never understood why he was pegged as such a good guy. I remember when an article came out several years ago, I believe Billy was still with us (R.I.P Billy Butler's career). The article made it seem like Hosmer was a complete jackass as well as several more of the young guys.

First 2 at-bats, and a home run and double for Mondesi. Meanwhile, Keller is 3 innings in with 0 hits.

The future is so bright.
