Any idea when Morejon will start pitching in minor league games? And what at level?

Pretty sure SD's short season roster has him on it.
Drew

All this talk about the Cape, how do players end up playing there?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:28
Cape teams basically scout and invite rising college juniors
2:29
Erich Uelman, Cal Poly, goes to Cubs. RHP 90-94, avg slider, throws strikes.
Babe Lincoln

Will you tell us the first time someone who you have no idea who he is gets drafted?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:29
It was Bacon.
2:30
Twins take Chipola 3B Andrew Bechtold. Above average bat speed, could be bat-first utility guy.
Babe Lincoln

Eric A Longenhagen
2:31
Nate Pearson
2:32
Reds take Mac Sceroler, 91-93, fringe curve, chance for above avg changeup.
2:33
^Padres just took Homza, good frame, 2B for me, chance to hit enough to play there. Nice pick.
Noah
2:33
When you talk about picking the best player available how do you weigh the difference between a volatile high upside player and a safer player with lower ceiling and high floor with the same FV?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:34
That's where more gut//subjectivity enters the equation.
2:35
Braves took Josh Fleming from Webster. 0.67 ERA and 0.71 WHIP this year.
Not Braves, Rays
Drew
2:36
At what point in the draft do you just throw your hands up and start listening/learning like the rest of us?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:36
When it's time to start writing about what happened today.
Which will be soon
2:37
A's take Santi Sanchez, C, Int'l Academy (PR)
Elite arm strength, erratic approach, mature bosy
body*
Rick C
2:38
Anything on Bruce Zimmerman?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:38
Senior sign
Dbacks take Buddy Kennedy from Millville HS (NJ)
2:39
Mature body, noisy swing, some feel for contact
Matt
2:39
Michael Chavis has 17 home runs and is leading the Carolina league in BA. Is he a prospect again?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:39
Yes, was hurt last year and didn't tell anyone.
2:40
Phillies take Ethan Lindow. Physically projectable, stuff backed up late in the spring. Has been up to 92 with some breaking ball and changeup feel. Interetsing buy-low prospect.
Tim
2:40
Does marinan have #2 upside?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:41
That's a 5 WAR pitcher so, no.
Brewers take NJ HS 3B Nick Egnatuk.
Good body, great defensive 3B, bat needs an overhaul
2:42
Egnatuk sounds the most like a Pokemon of any prospect in this year's draft
KP
2:42
How good is Bo Bichette really?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:42
His hitting traits are very special
2:43
Angels take Joe Booker. 87-89, t92. Vertical arm slot, good arm action, some curveball feel.
Alex
2:43
Who's the highest remaining undrafted player from your board? Anyone in the top 100?
Eric A Longenhagen

I think it's Jermiah Estrada? He might be going to school.
