Eric A Longenhagen
2:01
Morning from Tempe. Let's get right to it...
Mertz
2:01
Is Corbin Burnes' recent mediocre performance more of a function of his home park/league, or is he really having problems?  Do you see him making any MLB starts this year?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:03
Very likely the ballpark. Not sure he debuts this year because so many other viable guys are already on the 40-man and Burnes is not. Houser, Woodruff, etc.
Larry
2:03
Still feel like Gorman is the most likely pick for Atlanta?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:03
Yep
Dan

Thoughts on Cubs pitching prospects so far this year? From Underwood to Albertos, a lot seems to happening, good and bad.
Eric A Longenhagen
2:04
Most of them have just been okay, Albertos has been really bad and Underqwood has been fine, which is better than he has been. Still see him as a reliever and someone who maxes out as a 40.
curious
2:05
any insight on juwan harris from rutgers?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:06
Two-sport guy who some teams have off their board for makeup. Plus bat speed, bat control is alright, lower half a little stiff in the box. He's interesting.
Oh, 6 run, CF.
Joey Wendle
2:07
If I'm dealt (or another Rays 2B) to the Mariners, what would a decent return be?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:08
I think Wendle is a 45, so a 45 FV guy from the Mariners list would be good for TB. But I'm not sure there's a clear fit there, Seattle's system is quite barren and they're not selling low on Carlson and Lewis.
Marlins
2:08
what is the buzz on the marlins for the draft?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:08
High schoolers
Edwards, some of the prep arms
Veeno
2:08
Any recent concerns regarding Mitch White’s performance?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:08
His inconsistency as a pro, in general, is a little troubling
Colin Poche
2:09
How outstanding have I been? And will I see time at the Trop this season?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:09
Super good, TB thinks you have an 8 fastball because of the deception
westcoaster
2:09
Saw your Diamondbacks write up. I understand Kristian Robinson getting a 45FV tag now given his age, but if all his tools hit what they are projected to be, are we talking a 60-65FV player here?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:09
Yeah, that's the ceiling if everything clicks
Bored Employee

Can you think of any non-pitching prospects whose entire profile is held back by a lack of arm strength? I'm guessing it would be a guy who was forced to move off of C or SS, but none come to mind.
Eric A Longenhagen
2:10
Guys whose arm means LF-only. Donnie Dewees the first name that comes to mind. Ben Revere maybe?
Coppy
2:11
Is there anyone outside the top 200 prospects that we should be keeping an eye on? Who's your favorite guy to make a jump?
Eric A Longenhagen
Bork's Piercing Green Eyes
2:12
How has Alec Hansen's pitchface looked in extended spring training? Still an 80 grade?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:12
Yes
His teeth are perfect
Angels
2:12
is it just me or does jahmai jones have a similar minor league arc and perceived toolset to mookie betts
Eric A Longenhagen
2:12
Just you
Nick G.
2:12
is Nick Gordon ready to be an impact player in the bigs?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:13
Depends how you define 'impact'. I don't think he's a SS and think he's the 2B instead of Dozier next year.
Rohan
2:13
I know he's no longer a prospect, but if you had to throw some grades on Teoscar, what would that look like
Eric A Longenhagen
2:14
Looks like he's traded some contact for power but otherwise the grades on his player page are still what I'd have
Jacob
2:14
Who has the highest offensive upside between Connor Scott, Alek Thomas and Nick Schnell?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:14
Scott, then Schnell, then Thomas
JBP
2:14
Why is Faedo's velocity down?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:15
I don't and can't know for sure, but this happens to a lot of guys when they go every fifth day instead of once a week.
PK
2:15
Hi. Any new top of the draft tidbits for us? Mize et all?
Eric A Longenhagen
2:17
Still just think Mize goes 1, Bart 2, Bohm 3, probably Madrigal 4 (chance Singer), Singer 5 (Madrigal if Singer 4, chance it's India), then Mets at 6 have been tougher to gauge.
