Baseball more data is a little 57 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 3: bit more. Accessible video is a little bit more. Accessible 58 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 3: so and ALSO i have a lot more connections to 59 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 3: INSIGHT i think on the professional, side working on that 60 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 3: on the college, side so and as well as. AMATEUR i, 61 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 3: MEAN i JUST i don't have the ability to go 62 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 3: watch some of these high school guys in. 63 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 2: PERSON i get, video but that's about. 64 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 3: It so it's a little bit more, limited and it's 65 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 3: a lot more, DIFFICULT i, think to figure out where 66 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 3: each player is going to go in the. Draft SO 67 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 3: i try to just kind of look at it as 68 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 3: based on my assessment WHERE i think they're going to, 69 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 3: Go so that part's, similar but then also just trying 70 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 3: to reach out to WHOEVER i, can people that are 71 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 3: involved in some of these processes as to what they're, 72 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 3: hearing what they're, seeing and so it's a little bit 73 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 3: more on the reporter, SIDE i guess when it comes 74 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 3: to mock, drafts because it's more info and insight paired 75 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 3: with the. Assessments whereas top one HUNDRED us is just 76 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 3: these are the guys THAT i think are the top 77 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 3: one hundred prospects in, Baseball so it's a little bit. 78 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 3: Different there could be a guy THAT i think is 79 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 3: better than the player that's drafted ahead of him in 80 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 3: this mock. Draft but if that's what all the noise 81 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:39,799 Speaker 3: is right, now that's what's going to be reflected. 82 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 2: In the mock. Draft it's not about me it's about 83 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 2: what these teams may end up. 84 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: Doing And i'm asking you to compare the top one 85 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: hundred draft or top one hundred prospects to the mock, 86 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: draft kind of similarly to a mock draft versus a big. 87 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: Board this is not your top thirty players in this. 88 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: Draft that is now available On just baseball dot, com 89 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: which is linked in the episode description and for all 90 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 1: those watching on, YouTube you can find it in that 91 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: description as.

Hearing so it's a little 100 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 3: bit more of the reporter, side a little bit more 101 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 3: of the speculation, side compared to you, know the top one, 102 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 3: hundred where it's pure analysis And i'm really looking at 103 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 3: these players in a.

EXPECTING i, 144 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 3: Know Pete Flaherty Baseball america and one of the best 145 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 3: baseball minds you know that we've got and does as 146 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 3: good of a job on the draft trail as anyone 147 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 3: you're going to. Find absolutely loves this, guy and it's 148 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 3: just been a weird. Year for, him but he has 149 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 3: just started to pick up. Now so the numbers weren't, 150 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 3: great but he's a great defender in the, outfield there's 151 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 3: a good field to, hit good, approach but he just 152 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 3: started so poorly now finishing. Strong if he can kind 153 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 3: of continue this through the rest of the year and 154 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 3: maybe have a hot little finish into the, postseason if 155 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 3: they get to play into, THERE i Think siat is 156 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 3: a guy that could end up playing his way into 157 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 3: the first round where he was expected to be all. 158 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: Along that makes. SENSE i also have another. Question it's 159 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: more of a just draft rules type of. Question i've always, 160 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: wondered why can't teams trade draft picks In Major League? 161 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: Baseball because in other sports you, Can AND i feel 162 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: like it could make sense, that you, know the guardians 163 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: of the number one, pick, right maybe if, they're you, 164 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: know winning the, division maybe they could trade the first 165 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 1: pick for more. Assets why can't draft picks be traded 166 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: In Major League? 167 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 3: BASEBALL i think it's the bonus pool, structure so you 168 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 3: can trade those those compensation, picks and we'll see those 169 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 3: moves a little. BIT i think most recently it was 170 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 3: a Compe a pick that was part of the package 171 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 3: For Corbyn burns going over the other way To. Milwaukee 172 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 3: and they love to get creative with the draft and 173 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,599 Speaker 3: love to undersaw guys in the first round over in 174 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 3: the later rounds and accumulate, talent and that allows them 175 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 3: to do. That BUT i think with just all of 176 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 3: the unique aspects that come with having the bonus pool, 177 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 3: STRUCTURE i think if you're able to make trades of, 178 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 3: picks it would really complicate it and make things a 179 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 3: little bit. Crazy that, SAID i would love to see 180 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 3: draft picks being able to be, traded, like even if 181 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 3: it's just the first three. 182 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 2: ROUNDS i think it would be really. COOL i don't 183 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 2: know if they'll ever go in that. 184 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 3: Direction at least you are able to move the compensation, 185 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 3: picks BUT i think it would be tied into the 186 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 3: bonus pool structure and the complications that would come with. 187 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: That and in most drafts in THE nfl and THE, 188 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 1: nba the worst team gets the number one overall, pick 189 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: or most likely right maybe there's a draft, lottery but 190 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 1: those teams have a much higher percent chance of getting 191 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 1: the number one overall. Pick The guardians have the number 192 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: one overall pick in this. Draft how how do they 193 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: when they've had a good. TEAM i know it wasn't 194 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: great last, year but they weren't The a's, right and 195 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: The a's don't have the number. Pick they didn't have 196 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: the number two pick, Either so can you explain how 197 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: the draft order comes to be In Major League? 198 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 4: Baseball? 199 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 3: Yeah so now you, know to kind of the anti 200 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 3: tanking move is to you, know have this lottery, structure 201 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 3: AND i like. IT i Think reds fans probably hated 202 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 3: it after the first, year just getting you, know hosed 203 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 3: the way that they, did but you, know got rewarded 204 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 3: on the back end here and ended up getting you, 205 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 3: know the second. Pick The guardians had a two percent 206 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 3: chance at earning the number one, pick so they beat 207 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 3: out eight teams who had better odds than them to 208 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 3: get that number one. PICK i think it's reminiscent that 209 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 3: The cavaliers had that crazy run where they had the 210 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 3: first pick like three out of however many years in THE, 211 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 3: nba AND i know one of the years that they 212 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 3: had a really far outside. SHOT i think it's fun 213 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 3: BECAUSE i want to it makes the lottery a little 214 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 3: bit interesting and gives you something. Else but also, too 215 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 3: it's like it disincentivizes the consistent just, tanking AND i, 216 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 3: know like every sport has it to a, degree AND 217 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,839 Speaker 3: i don't think baseball is any, different you, know to 218 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 3: an extreme way than the. Others BUT i am a 219 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 3: supporter of disincentivizing the tanking and then the other aspect of. 220 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 3: It i'd have to have it like pull it up 221 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 3: right in front of. Me but you also can't, have you, 222 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 3: know top picks multiple years in a. Row so like 223 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 3: The White, sox after this, year like the next, draft 224 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 3: no matter how bad they, are it can't be in 225 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 3: the top. Ten so that's why another reason WHY i 226 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,839 Speaker 3: think The White sox are going potentially the high school 227 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 3: route is they need the highest upside option because no 228 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,439 Speaker 3: matter how bad they are this, year they won't be 229 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 3: picking in the top, ten which is which is, wild 230 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 3: BUT i like that, again it incentivizes you to, try 231 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 3: even when you know you're probably not going to be. 232 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 3: COMPETITIVE i at least put a decent product out on the. 233 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: Field AND i know these are more overarching, questions AND 234 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: i promise to everybody, listening we are going to get 235 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: into the top thirty. SHORTLY i just want to make 236 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: sure that everybody, listening in myself is fully on board 237 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: and understands the draft. Process so my last question before 238 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: we get into the top, thirty explain underslot and. Overslot, 239 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: right like the number one overall pick a few years, 240 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: Ago Henry davis. Goes, now you could, argue was he 241 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: the best player in the. DRAFT a lot of people 242 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: would argue that he. Wasn't but The pirates saved a 243 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: little bit of money by going With Henry davis underslaughting. 244 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: Him so can you explain to all those people listening 245 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: what that means if they hear that their team went 246 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 1: underslot or overslought for a particular. 247 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 3: Player, yeah, so every every, team and we just actually got. 248 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 3: That the bonus pools assigned, RECENTLY i think like a 249 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 3: couple of weeks, ago every team or every pick is 250 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 3: going to be assigned a slot value that the league 251 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 3: just deems based on that, Pick like the first overall 252 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 3: pick is worth, this the second overall pick is worth, 253 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,479 Speaker 3: that and it goes on and on and on up until. 254 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 2: Whatever round it. 255 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 3: Is the, pool the cumulative pool of your, picks you, 256 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 3: know whatever all of those picks are through the first 257 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 3: whatever many, rounds you know that combines to your total bonus. 258 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: Pool you can do whatever you want with. 259 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 3: That so that's where like the draft AND mlb is 260 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 3: almost more free, agency more adjacent to free agency than 261 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 3: like any other, draft because you are negotiating with players 262 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 3: and it's almost your way of being able to quote 263 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 3: unquote trade back or trade, up you, know into another 264 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 3: position in the. Draft so the largest bonus pool is 265 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 3: typically going to be the team that drafts first because 266 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 3: the number one pick is always going to, be you, 267 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 3: know worth so much. More but in this, instance like this, 268 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 3: year The rockies have the second biggest bonus pool at seventeen, 269 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 3: million so they can kind of move and shake that 270 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 3: however they. Want if you wanted to go underslot with 271 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 3: your first, pick then with your second, pick the benefit, Is, 272 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 3: okay there's a high school kid that's one of the 273 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 3: best players in the country that's committed to you, know 274 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 3: a power, school you, know power five, school that really 275 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 3: wants to go. There Dylan cruz is a perfect, example, 276 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 3: Right Dylan cruz was a legitimate draft prospect but really 277 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 3: wanted to go TO lsu because he knew if he goes, 278 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 3: there he's going to make himself a top three pick 279 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 3: in the, draft maybe even number. One but if you 280 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 3: saved millions of dollars with your first round pick on 281 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 3: a guy you really, like and you know that most 282 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 3: other teams have a twelfth or thirteenth overall or late 283 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 3: first round great on, him and you can save three million. 284 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 3: Dollars you could put that straight Towards Dylan cruz in 285 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 3: the second round and be giving him top fifteen pick 286 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 3: money out a high school and now you have two 287 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 3: guys that you thought were first round picks in the same. 288 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 3: Draft so you got to get creative with, it because 289 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 3: if you're not able to get that guy and you underslatted, 290 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 3: earlier you got to get. Creative there's a lot of 291 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 3: different ways that teams try to go about, it but 292 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 3: if you underslot with the first pick and have that 293 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 3: savings on the back, end it allows you to kind 294 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 3: of try to trade up quote unquote with your later 295 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 3: picks and get some higher, upside usually high school, talent 296 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 3: because usually it's a player that has to have leverage 297 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 3: and say IF i don't get this, Number i'm going to, 298 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 3: school or IF i don't get this, Number i'm going 299 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 3: back to. School it's usually going to be a high 300 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 3: school guy that doesn't have signability or has some signability. 301 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 2: Concerns so that's where teams can get really. 302 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: Creative this is a two part question that gets us 303 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: into the top. Thirty this first round at least seems 304 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: very college, dominant very college. Dominant, Right the first ten 305 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: picks are almost all college. Players you got a couple 306 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: of high schoolers mixed in, there but you look at past, 307 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: drafts a lot of high schoolers that may be gone 308 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 1: number one or at least a couple in the top. 309 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: Five not really this, draft it's more stacked with college 310 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: players and it's a perfect place to. Start at number 311 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: thirty with The Texas, rangers you have them Taking Tommy 312 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: tanks Or Tommy white out OF, lsu who placed third 313 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: base and first. Base Tommy tanks is very popular within 314 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: the college baseball, crowd AND i think a lot of 315 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: people have heard that name before after he launched twenty 316 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: seven freaking home runs in his first. Year, now it 317 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: hasn't been a great draft year For Tommy, tanks but 318 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: you still have him going in the first. Round we 319 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: know he's going to, hit but how do you see 320 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: him looking at the big league level one? Day and 321 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: then also just speak to the college part of this. 322 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 3: Draft, Yeah SO i mean first of, all really college, 323 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 3: heavy no doubt about, that especially on the pitching. Side 324 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 3: like it's pitching thin in general in this class for. 325 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 3: Sure BUT i mean there's there's not a lot of 326 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 3: high school arms THAT i think really are are pushing 327 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 3: towards the top fifteen a teammate reach just because they 328 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 3: want to get the top prep. Arm but it's definitely pitching, 329 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 3: thin and it's definitely very college. HEAVY a lot of 330 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 3: a lot of talent's been going to college over the 331 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 3: last few, years and a lot of players have had 332 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 3: the high price tags or you. 333 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 2: KNOW i think there's also. 334 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 3: It's estimate of just how good some of these programs 335 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 3: have become a developing. Talent so it's definitely going to 336 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 3: be a college heavy. Draft and that's also WHY i 337 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 3: think we are going to see a lot of teams 338 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 3: getting creative with the overslaught underslot. Thing and just kind 339 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 3: of one other example of, That Blake mitchell in this past, 340 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 3: draft high school, catcher even though high schoolers typically are overslat, 341 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 3: guys The royals took him at. Eight most people were 342 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 3: expecting him to go, sixteen seventeen or, eighteen somewhere around that. 343 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 3: Range and that's why they gave him the money about 344 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 3: in that. Range they saved a million dollars on that, 345 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 3: pick and then later on The royals were able to 346 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 3: go pick somebody up THAT i think a lot of 347 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 3: teams weren't even bothering with Any Hero wyatt because really 348 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 3: talented pitcher out of high. School they didn't think that 349 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 3: he was going to be. Signable they offered him one 350 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 3: point five million dollars in the third round and he. 351 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 3: Signed so THAT'S i think we're going to see a 352 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 3: lot of that this. Year but to answer your question 353 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 3: On Tommy, tanks you, know the way he started his 354 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 3: collegiate career was. Awesome you know AT Nc, state transferred 355 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 3: to AN sec school and put up similar numbers on. 356 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 2: Your way to you, know a national. 357 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,679 Speaker 3: CHAMPIONSHIP i think everything was kind of coming together for 358 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 3: him to have this big draft year and potentially be 359 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 3: a top ten. Pick i've always had concerns about the. 360 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 3: Approach i've always had some concerns about the moving parts 361 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 3: to his. SWING i think that it's really, loud AND 362 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 3: i think it's something that can get disrupted a lot 363 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 3: more against better. Pitching AND i even think at the collegiate, 364 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 3: level now we've kind of seen. That even these college 365 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 3: pitchers are starting to figure out how to execute a 366 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 3: scouting report and how to kind of get him tied 367 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 3: up and throw his timing. Off but he has plus 368 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 3: bats by we've seen the track record of, power and 369 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 3: a team could take a chance here late in the first. 370 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 3: Round i'm thinking like a team like The, rangers where 371 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 3: they can try to aim for the fences here at 372 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,199 Speaker 3: pick number thirty and go for a guy, that you, 373 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 3: know if it all works, out can hit thirty plus. 374 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 3: Homers but there is some question, with you, know the 375 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 3: ability to consistently be on. TOM i do think the 376 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 3: bats of ball is not, bad but again there's a 377 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 3: lot of moving parts and some mechanical things THAT i 378 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 3: think need to be cleaned. Up but the natural abilities 379 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 3: is pretty hard to. 380 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,399 Speaker 1: Deny do you think there would be a team that 381 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: would potentially overreach for a guy like? 382 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 2: That very. 383 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 3: POSSIBLE i, mean especially if he finishes, strong just because 384 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 3: of what he's done in the previous two. 385 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 2: Years you see the. 386 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 3: POWER i think the positional limitations may you, know result 387 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 3: in him, slipping BUT i wouldn't be surprised at all 388 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 3: if somebody takes him a little bit, earlier just based 389 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 3: on the pedigree and based on the fact that you 390 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 3: could probably look at him and, say, hey if we 391 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 3: adjust some mechanical things, here what can we? Unlock so 392 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 3: that could be something that entices a, team you, know 393 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,919 Speaker 3: in the twenties or even a little bit ahead of. 394 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:03,879 Speaker 3: That BUT i just think there's so many good college 395 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 3: bats that are doing it that it may be hard 396 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 3: for him to climb up much higher than that twenty. 397 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:14,360 Speaker 1: Range the REASON i asked, Was i'm a college baseball 398 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 1: fan And i've Seen Tommy tanks be one of the 399 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: best hitters in college baseball now for a while. Now 400 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 1: he has had his arguably quote unquote for all those 401 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 1: watching on YouTube seeing me do quotations with my, hands 402 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: his worst year to, date which is still a great. 403 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: Year BUT i think you're a little bit concerned with 404 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,199 Speaker 1: the defensive. Alignment where is he going to? Play as 405 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: he can play, first he's he gonna play? Third how 406 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: well can he play either? Position and then will he 407 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: be on time when it comes to the. Majors so 408 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: is this Is Tommy tanks right? Now are you a 409 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: little bit lower on? Him Because that's What i'm reading 410 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: from you than maybe the rest of these draft prospect 411 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 1: riders or anybody that there. Is i'm curious where you 412 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: land On tommy compared to the rest of these writers. 413 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 2: Historically definitely as. 414 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 3: Weller NOW i think you know people are he's, POLARIZING 415 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 3: i would, say and SO i think it's kind of. 416 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 3: Split but to your, point like he's still putting up good, 417 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 3: numbers he's not striking out a, lot and when he 418 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 3: runs into him like he runs into. Him SO i 419 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 3: think there's going to be people out there that feel 420 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 3: like they can get him right and maybe don't have 421 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,439 Speaker 3: as much concerned. Defensively but i'd definitely SAY i probably 422 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 3: skew on the lower end of the spectrum with a 423 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 3: guy like. 424 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 2: Him it's just it's really hard to see that it's. 425 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 3: Different it's a very uphill battle to carve out a 426 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 3: big league role when you're limited to a corner and 427 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 3: you know you're a very aggressive. Hitter you got to 428 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 3: really hit and you've got to really hit, hard and 429 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 3: he can do. That but you, Know i'd rather have 430 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 3: some more well rounded guys in the first. 431 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 4: Round so we'll move. 432 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: UP i want to talk about this grouping here at 433 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: twenty three and twenty, Four so The. Braves in this mock, 434 00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: Draft arma has left Handed Jonathan santucci From duke going 435 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 1: to The, braves and then at number twenty three he 436 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: Has iowa right hand Or brody. Breckt, now these two, 437 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: guys they've both been, shoving but in different. Ways Brody 438 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 1: brecked one hundred and, two one hundred and three miles 439 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 1: an hour he's touched at The university Of, iowa just 440 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: dominant type, stuff but the, walks the control can be 441 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: all over the. Place Jonathan santucci lefty working more ninety 442 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: three to ninety, five but has been, dominant but has 443 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: struggled a little bit. Lately so how do you grade 444 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: these two? Starters AND i know you Have brecked going 445 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: to The, Dodgers santucci going to The. Braves my two 446 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: questions are who do you personally? Prefer and then the 447 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: second question to follow, up why have those two arms 448 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 1: going back to back in these two slots of these 449 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 1: two dominant teams who are getting pitchers with a ton of. 450 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 2: Upside, yeah so that's definitely part of, it you. 451 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 3: Know so you look at this is like a draft, 452 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,880 Speaker 3: history you, know aspect of it with with The, braves 453 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 3: like they go pitching almost all the, time and that's 454 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 3: just the way that they like to do. It and 455 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 3: you can see because their big league korra offensively is 456 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 3: pretty locked, up and it's just been the way that 457 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 3: they like to approach. Drafts they do really well in 458 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 3: the middle rounds with position players, identifying and that's just 459 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 3: something that they've been really good. With and they just 460 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 3: like to go with the arms that they can kind 461 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 3: of fast track in the first. Round and the Thing, 462 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 3: santucci even with, command you, know, inconsistencies is a guy 463 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 3: that they probably feel like they can get right and 464 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 3: get them move in pretty quickly and get up to 465 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 3: that big league. Team i'd be shocked if The braves 466 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 3: don't go, pitching especially just with where they're at as 467 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 3: an organization and just the way that they approach. Things 468 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 3: but to answer kind of Who i'd go, with it's 469 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 3: so tough BECAUSE i think it's so dependent, on you, 470 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 3: know what my organization is, like because there's a big 471 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 3: reliance on pitching, DEVELOPMENT i think with both of these. 472 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 3: Guys but you, know With santucci came out, fantastic just 473 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 3: shoving looks like the best pitcher in the country right 474 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 3: along Side Chase. Burns then you, know over the last 475 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 3: handful of outings has really struggled with the command all 476 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 3: of a, sudden and, yeah as a, result has just 477 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 3: been not as. Dominant still putting together good, starts still 478 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 3: for the most, part keeping runs off the board and mostly, 479 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 3: competitive but in acc play he started to lose it 480 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 3: a little bit With. Brect it's always been that, case, 481 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 3: right like it's is the command going to be? There oh? 482 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,479 Speaker 3: Well the big hope, was oh, well he's not going 483 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 3: to play wide receiver anymore At, iowa so now we 484 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 3: can focus on pitching more and maybe that will result 485 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 3: and more strikes being. Thrown it has a little, bit 486 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 3: but it's pretty easy to cut down the water right 487 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 3: from where you was at last. Year i'd probably go 488 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 3: with the upside Of, brect just BECAUSE i think he 489 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 3: can be so special and he's so. Athletic and the 490 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 3: reason WHY i have him going to The dodgers is 491 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,199 Speaker 3: this is a spot where in general The dodgers drafting 492 00:23:55,280 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 3: have never been afraid of guys with command issues and allowed. 493 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 3: STUFF i, mean we saw them go After Maddox bruns 494 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 3: has not worked out, great but they've done it several other. 495 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 3: Times and it has worked out.

Eighteenth are you a casual or AM I. 556 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 3: I want him? HIGHER i do think that this is 557 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 3: close to the. FLOOR i just, wonder, like so there's you, 558 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:58,159 Speaker 3: know in the end of the, day a lot of 559 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 3: these teams just just kind OF i wouldn't say blindly follow, 560 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 3: it but you're going to follow your draft. 561 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 2: Model and if your. 562 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 3: Draft model has some red, flags as much as you 563 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 3: may like a player and your scouts may like a, 564 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,679 Speaker 3: player you're probably not going to override. That honeycut's going 565 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 3: to be in short company of players who have struck 566 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 3: out as much as he, has you, know and still 567 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 3: potentially gone in the first. Round and then if you 568 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 3: look at the players who have struck out as much 569 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 3: as he has and whipped as much as he has 570 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:28,879 Speaker 3: and gone on to have success, professionally it's even shorter 571 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 3: of a. List the flip side of that is how 572 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 3: many of those guys were elite center fielders with plus 573 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 3: plus speed and plus raw power as is very, few if. 574 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 3: Any so that's where the juggle comes. IN i thought 575 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 3: about mocking him to The marlins is. Sixteen that was 576 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 3: a spot that you, KNOW i was. Considering AND i 577 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 3: do think that he a team could end up loving, 578 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 3: him and you, know like The giants could end up 579 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 3: taking him a little bit. Earlier that wouldn't surprise me at. 580 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 3: All but you, KNOW i JUST i look at these 581 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 3: other bats AND i look at the high k. RATE i, 582 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 3: mean he's not far from thirty Percent honeycut and college 583 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 3: and the contact rates both in the zone and just 584 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 3: overall or are not, great and you just wonder if 585 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 3: that's going to be too much for a team and 586 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 3: kind of scare them in that middle of the first. 587 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 3: ROUND i think he's a great fit for The raise 588 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 3: because remember The rays are a team that traded For 589 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 3: Jose siri actually ended up being a nice piece for. 590 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 3: Them he's off to a slow start this, year but 591 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 3: The rays are very lift. Tolerant if you can go 592 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 3: get it and you can hit the ball. Hard And 593 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 3: i'm like a team that you, know was infatuated With Jose, 594 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 3: SIRI i think would love A Van's honeycutt who's, similar 595 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 3: BUT i think has more. Upside and, remember The rays 596 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 3: a lot of the time in the first round are 597 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 3: very risk tolerant with, wiff whether It's Carson williams if 598 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 3: your eyes that came with, with you, know. Concerns Greg 599 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 3: jones another first round pick that came with plenty of with, 600 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 3: concerns but could absolutely. MOTOR i think at the end 601 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 3: of the, day the whiff may end up dropping, him 602 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 3: but you, KNOW i don't think he falls much further than. 603 00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: This so there's a. Whiff there's a wiff concern on one, 604 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 1: side but there's also he's got an incredible baseball. 605 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 4: Name oh my, god what a. 606 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: Name, YEAH i mean That i'll start written all over. 607 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 1: It sometimes you got to look past all these draft 608 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 1: models and all of these nerds and just look at 609 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: a stud and be, like his name Is Vance. Honeycut 610 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 1: he's wearing you, know powder, blue and he's running all 611 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 1: over the. 612 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 4: Field he might be the best player in. 613 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 2: This draft by name. Value it's up. There AND i 614 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 2: mean there's a couple other. 615 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 3: Names, THOUGH i actually really like there's a name of 616 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 3: fifteen THAT i think might be arguably just as good 617 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 3: of a name in this, draft But honeycut's up. There. 618 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 2: ALSO i put out a. 619 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 3: TWEET i think if you just like search at arm 620 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 3: light and eight and then look, up Like. HONEYCUT i 621 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 3: cut up some video Of Vance honeycut's, defense just just 622 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 3: go watch. It it's, Crazy, like it's absolutely. Crazy he 623 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 3: is special out. There and that's WHY i think even 624 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 3: if he whiffs a, ton you can feel really confident 625 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 3: at the very least he's going to have a big league. 626 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 3: Role AND i think that's why a team may end 627 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 3: up still taking him. Earlier but, yeah it's it's just 628 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 3: gonna come down to the. WHIFF i will say it 629 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 3: is encouraging that he's sapping into more power and on 630 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 3: the surface is the statistics are. Better that, helps but 631 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 3: the underlying stuff is, still you, know at a little red. 632 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: FLAGISH i want to touch on these high school guys 633 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: that you got right in the middle of the. Draft at, 634 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: fourteen you got The cubs Taking Cam, kimminitti a left 635 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:28,959 Speaker 1: handed pitcher high school In, Arizona Slade caldwell to The 636 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: mariners at fifteen and outfielder From Arkansas High. School over, 637 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: There marlin's Taking Caleb bonemer Shortstop. MISSISSIPPI i Think Milwaukee, 638 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 1: Brewers Theodore gillan in field outfielder From Westlake High school In. 639 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: Texas instead of going through each individual, one who's your 640 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: favorite from this group. 641 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 3: In so, Pitching my is Definitely. CAMINITDI i think HE'S 642 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 3: i think he's got a chance to be really. SPECIAL 643 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 3: i think he's the best prep arm in this in this, 644 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 3: class and he's a guy that could end up going 645 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 3: a little bit. Earlier he Reclassified and by the, way 646 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 3: for those who may be, wondering it's Not Ken kemmannedy's. 647 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 3: Son it's his, NEPHEW i, believe but he reclassified from 648 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 3: twenty twenty five to twenty twenty. 649 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 2: Four he's super athletic on the. 650 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 3: Mound he'll be seventeen years old still on draft, day 651 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 3: AND i mean it's up to ninety. 652 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 2: Six good. 653 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 3: Life it's kind of this funky cross body delivery THAT 654 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 3: i think can make it really tough for. Hitters and 655 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 3: he just seems to be getting better and better and 656 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 3: better every time you check. In so on the pitching, 657 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 3: side you, know and just in, GENERAL i think he'd 658 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 3: be one of the two. Favorites but my favorite hitter's 659 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 3: got to probably Be slade Called.

Wane that's just something to, 847 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 3: monitor my one thing with. 848 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:28,880 Speaker 2: Him and ALSO i was just kind of. 849 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 3: Looking at other team needs in terms, of LIKE i 850 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,760 Speaker 3: guess no one really draps on NEED i should, say 851 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 3: the way that teams kind of approach their, selections, uh 852 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,239 Speaker 3: and and the WAY i could see it shaking, out 853 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 3: AND i could just see a world, where you, know 854 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 3: someone always slips a little. BIT i could see it 855 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,320 Speaker 3: Being Hagen smith in this. Scenario And i'll kind of 856 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:48,800 Speaker 3: lay it out when we get to some of those you, 857 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:49,360 Speaker 3: know picks. 858 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 2: AHEAD i Think smith has. 859 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 3: A really good chance at the very least of being 860 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 3: a disgusting high leverage. Arm like if everything goes, poorly you, 861 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 3: know he's you could fast track him a bullpen and 862 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 3: that fastball slider is going to play it right. 863 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 2: Away you mentioned the. 864 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 3: Velocity like he is throwing fuzz and he hasn't really 865 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,359 Speaker 3: seen it dip at, all you, know through the course 866 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 3: of the. Season if, anything he's throwing as hard as 867 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 3: ever in that last outing a few days ago Against South, 868 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 3: carolina threw one hundred and two, pitches second most on the, 869 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 3: season and he averaged ninety six on the. Fastball so 870 00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 3: to your, point he could easily climb. Up my concern, 871 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:27,320 Speaker 3: is where's the third, Pitch and maybe it'll be, there maybe. 872 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 2: You can find. 873 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,320 Speaker 3: It maybe he doesn't entirely need it that much because 874 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 3: of how dominant he is with the fastball and, slider 875 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 3: but it is something, that you, Know i'm just interested to. 876 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 3: Monitor he's dominated, everybody righties have gotten dominated slightly less 877 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 3: so far this, Year but that's just the one. Thing 878 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 3: maybe a, team you, know is a bit concerned about 879 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 3: the lack of third, pitch and you know the command 880 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 3: trend a bit and would rather just go with a 881 00:41:56,640 --> 00:42:00,560 Speaker 3: bat in those earlier. Picks and the other thing is 882 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 3: LIKE i look at The pirates at, NINE i think 883 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 3: they're almost surely going with the. Bat you look at 884 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 3: that that, system it's all, arms and and you look 885 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 3: at what some of their needs. Are, AGAIN i don't 886 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 3: think teams mostly draft on, needs but then there's extreme 887 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,440 Speaker 3: examples where they probably, will AND i think this is 888 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 3: an extreme. Example you also get The marlins like if 889 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,240 Speaker 3: they take another, arm they're out of their minds given 890 00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:23,160 Speaker 3: where they're. At SO i just think you can get 891 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 3: to pick number ten kind of quickly when you start 892 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:27,280 Speaker 3: to put in the names that have to go ahead 893 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 3: of the ahead Of smith in my, opinion and then 894 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 3: bake in maybe some of the minor concerns with you, 895 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:36,879 Speaker 3: know the lack of third, pitch and we'll see where 896 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:37,880 Speaker 3: the command continues to. 897 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,359 Speaker 4: Trend all, Right, fine that was a pretty good. 898 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 1: Answer do you kind of do you compare them at 899 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 1: all to like a little bit more juiced up And 900 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 1: i'm talking about juice in terms of just a little 901 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:52,160 Speaker 1: bit higher velocity to like A Kyle harrison with The 902 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:52,720 Speaker 1: San Francisco. 903 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 4: Giants, YEAH i. 904 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 3: Think it's a great. COP i Think harrison is a 905 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 3: little bit more. Funky But Hagen SMITH i got to 906 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 3: dive more into like the earliest characteristics because he gets 907 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 3: the same sort of results and the same sort of hitter. 908 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 3: Reactions so there it has to be some sort of 909 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:12,720 Speaker 3: deception that kind of defies track man to a, degree 910 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 3: and a lot of times it's like a little bit 911 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 3: of a cross body. DELIVERY a lot of times it's 912 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,839 Speaker 3: just the way that this fastball and slider tunnel off 913 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 3: of each. OTHER i do think it's it's it's kind 914 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 3: of cut from that same, cloth AND i think, similarly 915 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:29,880 Speaker 3: sometimes frustrating ish command and sometimes you're wondering if that 916 00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:33,280 Speaker 3: third pitch is going to be. THERE i think that's 917 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:37,760 Speaker 3: very similar to the starter, kit you know That Hagen smith. 918 00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:40,600 Speaker 3: HAS i think you could also look at maybe like 919 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,799 Speaker 3: A rodan and dream on that a little, bit and you, 920 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 3: know obviously that's a Better rodin The rodin that we, 921 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 3: saw you, know before The yankees signed him to this mega, 922 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 3: deal though he has been good out of the gate this. 923 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 2: Year, YEAH i. 924 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 3: Think it's kind of cut from that, cloth and that's 925 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 3: been a picture and a prototype that teams have started 926 00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,320 Speaker 3: to like a lot more so could easily go earlier. 927 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 4: As we go up the. 928 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:05,399 Speaker 1: Draft my favorite line from the, article AND i quote 929 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 1: from Arm, layton that said he offers some of the 930 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,000 Speaker 1: most impressive batspeed in the country and has the goods 931 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:13,239 Speaker 1: to fly through the minor leagues just how The angels like. 932 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:14,760 Speaker 4: It, YEAH i love that. Line. 933 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 1: ANGELS Jj weatherholt tough guy to nab because mock draft 934 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,000 Speaker 1: one point, zero which again you can find on just 935 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:26,000 Speaker 1: baseball dot, com so you can see the changes that 936 00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 1: are made from one to. Two he was the number 937 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:31,759 Speaker 1: one overall player of the. Draft we weren't sure is 938 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:33,800 Speaker 1: he gonna play? Second is he gonna play? Short playing 939 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,920 Speaker 1: short would definitely help his draft, position but it's the 940 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 1: multiple hamstring. Injuries IS Jj weatherholt at eight more of 941 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:46,239 Speaker 1: a placeholder as you see him dropping out of the 942 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:50,120 Speaker 1: top ten come draft day or do you actually think 943 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 1: he's going to go higher than, eight or do you 944 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 1: think he's literally gonna go. 945 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 2: EIGHT i think this is kind of the perfect spot for. 946 00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:57,400 Speaker 2: HIM i. 947 00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 3: DO i think he could end up trending back Upwar 948 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:02,840 Speaker 3: there is some concern about the. INJURIES i mean just 949 00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:06,799 Speaker 3: recurring hamstring. Issue is it just continuously been banged. UP 950 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 3: i had him at one BECAUSE i, mean you look 951 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,359 Speaker 3: at what he did last. Year you look at the bad, 952 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,320 Speaker 3: speed the fact that he was the one that was 953 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 3: going to get the opportunity to play shortstop as. 954 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:17,120 Speaker 2: Well bizana was going to play second. 955 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:19,799 Speaker 3: Base going into the year Before bazana had added that, 956 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 3: power Weather hold, had you, know more impact. There but 957 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 3: we'll get To bazan at a moment and the power 958 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 3: that he's at. It he's just looked like A i 959 00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 3: wouldn't say different, player looks like everything that he was 960 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:34,879 Speaker 3: just upgraded, Substantially so that's been really. FUN i think 961 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 3: Weather hold it's it would be hard to imagine him 962 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:42,799 Speaker 3: falling past this. Spot and you, know The, angels like you, 963 00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 3: mentioned they love the guys that can fly up. Quickly 964 00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:51,359 Speaker 3: they need. Reinforcements they love these types of. Players Weather, 965 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 3: hold as long as he's, healthy can fly up the, 966 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 3: ranks like absolutely fly up the. Ranks AND i think long, 967 00:45:56,280 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 3: term his home's probably second, base And i'm imagining infield 968 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:04,840 Speaker 3: With weatherholt and Zach. Netto it's, athletic that's. Fun but 969 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 3: teams may be a little bit put off by the. 970 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,759 Speaker 3: Injuries they might be a little bit. Concerned but he's 971 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 3: picked it up since he's come, back AND i think 972 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 3: if he has a really strong finish of the, year 973 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 3: he's really not striking out at. All the bat speed is, 974 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,000 Speaker 3: unteachable AND i think scouts are certain scouts are going 975 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 3: to really fall in love with, that AND i think 976 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:25,400 Speaker 3: push for him to, be you, know their team's first round. 977 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 3: Pick SO i think he's gonna stay in the top. 978 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,399 Speaker 3: Ten he might even climb a little bit. Further but man, 979 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:33,920 Speaker 3: like it's been frustrating from a health standpoint BECAUSE i 980 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:35,799 Speaker 3: think if he was healthy this whole, year he could 981 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 3: have been right there With bizana in terms of putting 982 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 3: up some similar. 983 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 1: NUMBERS i picked number.

Starter you, KNOW i don't think 1001 00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 3: that's in. There his command is below, average fastball's, good 1002 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:42,279 Speaker 3: the characteristics are, fine is a good change, up and 1003 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:46,120 Speaker 3: then the slider's. Eh SO i JUST i don't know 1004 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 3: if he compares to what he is as a hitter 1005 00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 3: on the, mound and you want to take away from, 1006 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:55,399 Speaker 3: him you, know as a hitter by trying to learn 1007 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 3: on the. Mound Like Bryce eldridge with The. GIANTS i 1008 00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:00,840 Speaker 3: think he's a really solid pitching. Prospect, well but he 1009 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:03,880 Speaker 3: looks so good at the. Plate similar profile To, kaglion huge, 1010 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:06,360 Speaker 3: guy even taller, actually but was so good at the. 1011 00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:07,880 Speaker 3: Plate they're, like you, know let's just focus on this 1012 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 3: and fast track. YOU i think with Kagli, on a 1013 00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:13,200 Speaker 3: lot of teams are going to be, saying, okay well 1014 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:15,120 Speaker 3: if he's not, pitching and we're drafting him because he's 1015 00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:17,200 Speaker 3: a two way guy and he's not pitching by year. 1016 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:20,960 Speaker 3: Two we bought high on a stock there that you 1017 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,840 Speaker 3: know we probably shouldn't. Have that's A the bat is 1018 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,480 Speaker 3: so good in terms of the. Power you tweeted at 1019 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:27,959 Speaker 3: me and you're, like, oh this is eighty great. Power, 1020 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 3: yeah it's aighty, raw no doubt about. It and you 1021 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:32,359 Speaker 3: know the things that he has done to cut down 1022 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 3: on the whiff and the chase is still pretty, substantial 1023 00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:38,440 Speaker 3: but he's cut down on it, Marginally but to not 1024 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,439 Speaker 3: be striking out and to be putting up the numbers 1025 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:42,840 Speaker 3: that he's putting up and homering and seemingly every single, 1026 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:46,319 Speaker 3: game there's teams that probably may want to take him 1027 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 3: in the top, five and this is probably as low 1028 00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,239 Speaker 3: as he. GOES i just don't see him as the 1029 00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 3: two way. GUY i don't know how every single team sees. 1030 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 3: HIM i know some see him as just that, hitter 1031 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 3: AND i think for that, reason he could end up 1032 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:01,919 Speaker 3: dropping a little bit because like an At, kurtz if. 1033 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,560 Speaker 2: They're both playing first, Base i'm Taking Nick. 1034 00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 3: Kurtz so, yeah you could, say, Oh, kaglione he but 1035 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 3: he pitches too. Well if he's not pitching a year, 1036 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 3: TWO i might be WISHING i Took Nick. 1037 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:17,839 Speaker 1: Kurtz how it makes, Sense so you if you were A, 1038 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:20,320 Speaker 1: gm you're not drafting him as a. Pitcher you're drafting 1039 00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:22,439 Speaker 1: him as a. Hitter and that's and then you're being, 1040 00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:24,880 Speaker 1: LIKE i think this guy's eighty grade. POWER i think 1041 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:26,560 Speaker 1: he had a ton of home runs at the big league. 1042 00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 1: LEVEL i think he could hit for a decent enough. Average, 1043 00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:30,000 Speaker 1: ye he's going to strike, out but we're going to 1044 00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: get a ton of. Homers that's Who Jack caglione. Is 1045 00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 1: while we're watching him At florida pitch On sundays or 1046 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,399 Speaker 1: On saturdays or whatever day of the week that he's. 1047 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:40,600 Speaker 1: Pitching it's great for, college but we're not going to 1048 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 1: be expecting it in Major League. 1049 00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:45,359 Speaker 3: Baseball that's HOW i would go about. It and The, 1050 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 3: cardinals you, know they like these types of. Players they 1051 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:49,759 Speaker 3: like guys that could pitch in, college even if they 1052 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,200 Speaker 3: don't like him as much as a pitching. Prospect And 1053 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 3: Alec burleson pitched At East. Carolina he was not a pitching. 1054 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:58,200 Speaker 3: Prospect he was mostly a, hitter but you, know they 1055 00:49:58,280 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 3: drafted him and they loved. 1056 00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:00,279 Speaker 2: Him second. 1057 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:02,440 Speaker 3: Round Mason, WYNN i think was an even better pitching 1058 00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:04,400 Speaker 3: prospect Than. KAGLION i know he's not a six or five, 1059 00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 3: lefty but the stuff WAS i think. Better fastball was mid. 1060 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,879 Speaker 3: Nineties slider was, disgusting and they shut that down pretty, 1061 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:12,839 Speaker 3: quick you. KNOW i think he threw one inning and then, 1062 00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:16,319 Speaker 3: yeah that was it and they said let's focus on hitting. 1063 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:19,600 Speaker 3: Here so, YEAH i think that's ultimately the direction that. 1064 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:22,279 Speaker 3: Goes but If i'm trying to Sign, KAGLIONE i want him, 1065 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,400 Speaker 3: to you, know sign to the slot value for me at, 1066 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,359 Speaker 3: seven and he really wants to, pitch you, know Give 1067 00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:30,279 Speaker 3: hi an opportunity to you, KNOW i look at what 1068 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:34,239 Speaker 3: we just saw recently with The giants again and you, 1069 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 3: know their first shrounder and giving him a little bit 1070 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 3: of a. Chance but Then Tommy john and, ultimately you, 1071 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:43,880 Speaker 3: know they decide With Reggie crawford to you, know just 1072 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,440 Speaker 3: have him focus on just the pitching instead of, hitting 1073 00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 3: because he has so many innings to make up for 1074 00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:50,520 Speaker 3: and a lot of power at the. 1075 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:51,840 Speaker 2: PLAY i think for kind of similar To. 1076 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:55,440 Speaker 3: KAGALION i Saw crawford to The Arizona Fall, league massive, 1077 00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 3: power ton of swing and miss missed a lot of 1078 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:00,760 Speaker 3: innings because Of Tommy, john and they, said let's focus 1079 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 3: on one thing. Here it's a little different with kagali, 1080 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 3: own but you, KNOW i think with the potential he 1081 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 3: is forty, five with the, power he cold probably hit 1082 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:08,400 Speaker 3: fifty home. 1083 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:09,840 Speaker 2: Runs like if he can. 1084 00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:11,800 Speaker 3: Be, that why AM i going to try to shoehorn 1085 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:13,760 Speaker 3: him into being a back end of the rotation Starter 1086 00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,279 Speaker 3: WHEN i can just really develop him as you, know 1087 00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 3: a forty home run. 1088 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:21,480 Speaker 1: Bat at number, five you have The White sox Taking Connor. 1089 00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 1: Griffin so an easy question for, you why Is Connor 1090 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:29,120 Speaker 1: griffin the best high school player in this upcoming? 1091 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 4: DRAFT i think. 1092 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 3: UPSIDE i do Think rayner is starting to close that. 1093 00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:38,320 Speaker 3: Gap Bryce rayner we have going nine to The pirates 1094 00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:42,480 Speaker 3: From Harvard. Westlake he's who just looks really really. Good 1095 00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:46,000 Speaker 3: uh and two way guy too that just continues to 1096 00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:48,880 Speaker 3: look better and better offensively and could stick it. Short 1097 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:53,960 Speaker 3: but With Connor griffin six' four two ten, plus runner 1098 00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:58,600 Speaker 3: big power and can play a good, center field can 1099 00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:01,239 Speaker 3: play a good. Short stop the thing with, him is, 1100 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 3: you know there are some questions about the, you know 1101 00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:07,840 Speaker 3: the hit tool to, a degree but he's continued to 1102 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:11,480 Speaker 3: hedge that concern and hedge that concern and hedge. That 1103 00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:15,279 Speaker 3: CONCERN and i look At The white sox an organization 1104 00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 3: that needs is all the TALENT that i. Can get 1105 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,520 Speaker 3: they're again not going to be able to pick in 1106 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:24,720 Speaker 3: the top ten. Next year you can't pick tenth picker 1107 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:28,400 Speaker 3: earlier back to back years with the new, lottery SYSTEM 1108 00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:31,200 Speaker 3: and i think you look at an opportunity Here With 1109 00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:35,360 Speaker 3: connor griffin says a little bit more upside AND just 1110 00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:39,080 Speaker 3: i think could be. A freak you take a chance 1111 00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:40,960 Speaker 3: on him at number, five HERE but i Do think. 1112 00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 3: RAINER'S close i. Higher floor BUT when i can get 1113 00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,839 Speaker 3: a six to four speedster with massive power who could 1114 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:50,600 Speaker 3: play a good center or shortstop and continues to progress 1115 00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:53,719 Speaker 3: nicely with the, Hit tool i'll take a little bit 1116 00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:54,480 Speaker 3: more of the chance there. 1117 00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:57,880 Speaker 4: At five so my next question is we go into the. 1118 00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:00,759 Speaker 1: TOP four i more want to ask, between two three, 1119 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:03,759 Speaker 1: and four because we're gonna talk about number one in. 1120 00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:07,799 Speaker 1: A minute i want his own elevator pitch when you go. 1121 00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 1: At Four the A's Taking nick kurtz out Of wake forest, 1122 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:15,360 Speaker 1: at Three the Rockies Taking chase burns again out Of, 1123 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,880 Speaker 1: wake forest And the Reds Taking travis bazana. 1124 00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:18,920 Speaker 4: At second. 1125 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:23,239 Speaker 1: Does any of that have to do with underslot or 1126 00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:27,680 Speaker 1: are these the three best players in? A row or 1127 00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:31,719 Speaker 1: do You View nick kurtz Better Than travis bozana but 1128 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:34,920 Speaker 1: you Think the reds are more likely to grab this? Second, 1129 00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:38,040 Speaker 1: basement like does any of this have to do with, 1130 00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:43,840 Speaker 1: money allocated? Team trends or these just the? Three best 1131 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,200 Speaker 1: before we get to, NUMBER one i think these are 1132 00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:47,040 Speaker 1: the three the. 1133 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:47,400 Speaker 4: Three. 1134 00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:50,520 Speaker 3: Best uh, you Know the rockies is a, team trend, 1135 00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:52,960 Speaker 3: for sure we can talk, About that but when it 1136 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:59,680 Speaker 3: comes To, Like kurtz Bizana, and, CONDON like i think 1137 00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,319 Speaker 3: these are the three, best GUYS and i think that 1138 00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:05,000 Speaker 3: there's gonna be a long conversation about. Number one and 1139 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:06,759 Speaker 3: it's a little. Bit NOW when i get to number 1140 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 3: one and we're splitting the hairs as precisely, As possible 1141 00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:14,000 Speaker 3: i'll make my elevator pitch. On WHY condon i think 1142 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:17,040 Speaker 3: fits the organization a, bit more and they have a. 1143 00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:19,719 Speaker 2: Lot of middle infielders that make a lot. 1144 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 3: Of contact Even though bizana's power is really, TICKED up 1145 00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:26,560 Speaker 3: i think it's a little bit of need with the number. 1146 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:28,600 Speaker 3: One pick but at the end of, THE day i 1147 00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:31,399 Speaker 3: also think that a lot of people out there look 1148 00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 3: at him as the best player in, the draft AND 1149 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:37,480 Speaker 3: then i do Think that bizana has an Edge. Over 1150 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:40,800 Speaker 3: kurtz kurtz continues to trend upwards now that he's. Gotten 1151 00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:43,880 Speaker 3: healthy that shoulder was bothering him for a while and 1152 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:47,040 Speaker 3: now ever since getting healthy is, looking amazing but he 1153 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:50,120 Speaker 3: is limited to. First base the thing that really is 1154 00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:52,799 Speaker 3: going for him is you have a potential for plus 1155 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:56,760 Speaker 3: hit and, plus power which, is scary very, very scary 1156 00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,560 Speaker 3: and he's a good defensive. First BASEMAN and i think 1157 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,520 Speaker 3: there's been some smoke That the guardians could even go 1158 00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:05,279 Speaker 3: under slot at number one And. TAKE kurtz i don't 1159 00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:08,440 Speaker 3: know if that's really makes a ton, of sense but, 1160 00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:10,359 Speaker 3: you know there's always gonna be smoke screens on that kind. 1161 00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:13,200 Speaker 3: OF stuff i Just think, bazan is, you know a 1162 00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:16,480 Speaker 3: level above because you have similar, offensive ability not quite as, 1163 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:19,400 Speaker 3: much power a little bit better field, to hit, plus 1164 00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:21,600 Speaker 3: speed and a lot of other things going for him, 1165 00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:23,479 Speaker 3: as well while being able to play second or center 1166 00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 3: field if you ultimately want to move. 1167 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:30,600 Speaker 1: Them there so Why Should Carle? Carlee chandon Why Should 1168 00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 1: charlie condon go number one overall in this year's draft To. 1169 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 2: THE guardians i think it's a little bit. 1170 00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 3: Of everything first, of All the guardians have a trillion 1171 00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:44,560 Speaker 3: middle endfielders and so many, contact oriented smaller framed. Middle 1172 00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:48,560 Speaker 3: endfielders they're an organization that has made a concerted effort 1173 00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:50,759 Speaker 3: to lean into, more power whether it's going to Trade For, 1174 00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:54,080 Speaker 3: kyle Manzardo Taking Davison della santos in the role, five 1175 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,080 Speaker 3: draft they ended, up returning but that's a chance that 1176 00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:59,280 Speaker 3: they usually would have. Never taken when We Had stephen 1177 00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 3: kwan on, the show, you know talking about how they 1178 00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:06,759 Speaker 3: the organization philosophy has been leaning into power a little. 1179 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,640 Speaker 3: Bit more but it's not like you're. Compromising it it's 1180 00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:12,840 Speaker 3: not like you're going for a big. Whiff GUY so 1181 00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:15,840 Speaker 3: i Feel like condon just fits like a glove because 1182 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:18,520 Speaker 3: you don't have to compromise where he. Came from if 1183 00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 3: You're the guardians who still are going to lean towards 1184 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:23,759 Speaker 3: those hit. Tool guys but when you look at a 1185 00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:27,360 Speaker 3: lot of the ways that draft models are going To Process, 1186 00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:29,759 Speaker 3: charlie condon he's going to be up there with just. 1187 00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:33,960 Speaker 3: About anybody the contact rates are have been Better Than, 1188 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:37,920 Speaker 3: dylan cruz the exsit velocities have been as good as 1189 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 3: anybody in. The country the production from a statistical standpoint has, 1190 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:44,480 Speaker 3: been comical and he's doing it IN. The sec there's 1191 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,560 Speaker 3: a question about where he's going to play defensively. Long 1192 00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:49,680 Speaker 3: term he, sixty Six but i've looked through the video 1193 00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:52,560 Speaker 3: he's looked passable at. Third base they've thrown him, in 1194 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:54,279 Speaker 3: center which is a. Little ridiculous but the fact that 1195 00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:56,160 Speaker 3: they're able to even throw him in center and it's not. 1196 00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:58,000 Speaker 3: A disaster i think it's a testament to the fact 1197 00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:00,359 Speaker 3: that you could probably play right at a. Decent level 1198 00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:02,680 Speaker 3: i'm not worried about him being a first base. ONLY 1199 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:04,760 Speaker 3: guy i think you could stick him in a corner 1200 00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:08,480 Speaker 3: of the outfield or potentially third base even and he 1201 00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,240 Speaker 3: could be. Passable there so when you have that factored 1202 00:57:11,239 --> 00:57:14,359 Speaker 3: into the, fact that Like if bizana was, a shortstop it's. 1203 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 3: Another conversation but it's Not like bizana is some sort 1204 00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 3: of valuable defensive. Asset either there's a lot of really 1205 00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:24,680 Speaker 3: good bats with limited, Defensive value so why not take 1206 00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:28,280 Speaker 3: the best bat, who's not, you know for sure limited to. 1207 00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:30,919 Speaker 3: FIRST base i think content's clearly the best bat from a. Power, 1208 00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:34,880 Speaker 3: perspective now the bats of ball is insane and going into, 1209 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 3: THIS year I Texted pete Flaherty From baseball AMERICA and, 1210 00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:41,400 Speaker 3: I said i'm looking through all, the video What Does 1211 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:42,920 Speaker 3: charlie condon have to do to be the one to, 1212 00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:46,080 Speaker 3: one PICK because i think this bat is as Insane as. 1213 00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:49,120 Speaker 3: I've seen and he said he's going to have to really. 1214 00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:54,280 Speaker 3: Really hit he's really really HIT and i think that's. 1215 00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:55,720 Speaker 3: AN understatement. 1216 00:57:57,520 --> 00:58:00,080 Speaker 1: I have a, question about and now we've gone through the, 1217 00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:05,440 Speaker 1: entire draft Where Would charlie condon rank in last? Year's 1218 00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:08,760 Speaker 1: draft because last Year Had paul Skins And dylan cruz 1219 00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 1: and While at Langford And walker Jenkins And. Max clark 1220 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 1: if that draft Happened And charlie condon's profile, came, in 1221 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:19,600 Speaker 1: now if that, makes Sense If charlie condon was in 1222 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:23,160 Speaker 1: last year's draft with this, year's profile where do you 1223 00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:23,480 Speaker 1: think he? 1224 00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:24,000 Speaker 4: Would, go. 1225 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 3: Without, you know trying to remove any, any hindsight, you 1226 00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:31,160 Speaker 3: know with Guys, like clark, you know and and just 1227 00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 3: The way, LANGFORD'S performed i Still think langford would probably 1228 00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:40,760 Speaker 3: have the, leg up just because of the athleticism and 1229 00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:42,120 Speaker 3: just kind of some of the things that he brings to. 1230 00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:43,320 Speaker 3: The table but at the, same time it's not like 1231 00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:46,120 Speaker 3: he's the most valuable defensive piece in. THE world I 1232 00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:48,919 Speaker 3: think cruz's pedigree probably would have given him a little 1233 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 3: bit of. An, Edge remember condon's a guy that red 1234 00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:54,120 Speaker 3: shirt and had a really good year last year and 1235 00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:56,680 Speaker 3: now has done it again. THIS year i do think 1236 00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:59,920 Speaker 3: that there's a little bit of an edge From, the 1237 00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 3: again the batted ball data perspective and the way that 1238 00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:05,840 Speaker 3: models would probably grade Out. Of condon but then when 1239 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:07,520 Speaker 3: you See that cruz can play center field and do 1240 00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:09,720 Speaker 3: the things that, HE'S doing i think it WOULD probably 1241 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:13,000 Speaker 3: I think conda would probably check in at three slash 1242 00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:15,360 Speaker 3: four because You'd have skeins in, There too but among the, 1243 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:18,360 Speaker 3: POSITION players i think it Would be Cruise and langford 1244 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:22,600 Speaker 3: And then condon. Right there but again that's a little 1245 00:59:22,600 --> 00:59:26,080 Speaker 3: bit more because of the track Record, of cruz and 1246 00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:28,320 Speaker 3: then you know the Things that langford was able to 1247 00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:30,280 Speaker 3: do on the field. Last YEAR but i think there's 1248 00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:32,480 Speaker 3: a lot of Similarities to Condon. And langford to, be 1249 00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:36,040 Speaker 3: honest he just doesn't have quite as much of the speed. 1250 00:59:36,080 --> 00:59:38,720 Speaker 3: And ATHLETICISM but i would say that there's a little 1251 00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:41,880 Speaker 3: bit better bat to Ball, than langford which says. A. 1252 00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:45,840 Speaker 1: LOT well i had an. Absolute blast this. Was awesome 1253 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 1: thank you for answering all of.
