If San Diego is contending in July, is a guy like Matthew Boyd a potential target? Seems like he would be a great fit in Petco, has 3+ years of control. What would they likely need to give up to pull it off?

that's a pretty good fit, yeah. three years of a 2-war guy probably gets you a 45/50 FV type of prospect, at least. Some of those upper-level OFs like Franchy would seem like good fits there. Detroit has time to let them play and develop vs big league arms but they're under team control for long enough that they might be around when DET is good again

Thanks for the Padres article! Not a question: I knew they were deep, but holy hell are they deep!

Thoughts on the UCLA guys?

I dig Strumpf as a 2nd round type, a little lower on Toglia, 4th-5th round on Ryan Garcia, I'm not on Kriedler

Do teams with later picks in the draft bother scouting the top names?
Eric A Longenhagen
12:51
not really

Do you consider Geraldo Perdomo's performance so far to be a good sign (for showing the same advanced approach in full-season ball), concerning (given the vanishing power), or not really worth noting one way or the other?
Eric A Longenhagen
12:51
it's just confirmation of what we saw last year, really.

Will Logan Gilbert be on a similar path thru the minors as Griffin Canning?

Have you heard anything about top-5 teams taking underslot guys, or is that less likely with the D-backs having so many picks?
Eric A Longenhagen
12:52
might go under slot on a guy who would otherwise go, say, 6th.
12:54
like if you think Abrams doesn't go until 6 and you pick 3, you should try to cut a deal there. You won't be able to control who else you get with the savings because of teams like the DBacks, but if you like enough of the Volpes, Leiters, Barcos, etc that you're confident one of those guys will be there for you later, you can still do it.

How have Jeremiah Jackson and D'Shawn Knowles looked in xST? Either look like they're ready for Burlington?
Eric A Longenhagen

Jackson did not look good when I saw him and I haven't seen Knowles or Deveaux play.
