Dave

Does Termarr cut a deal and put Pirates into the pole position for slot space?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:37
doubt it
Brad
7:39
When picking Johnson, do the Pirates already know what it will cost to sign him?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:39
most likely, yes
Tyler
7:40
Can I just say I love Termarr Johnson? That interview was an absolute home run
Eric A Longenhagen
7:40
He's a great kid
Draft Board should be fixed now (with picks being added)
Chaim

Would you say Kumar going 3 is more shocking than Nick Yorke (who wasn't on anyone's top 100 list) going 17 to the Red Sox in the 2020 draft?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:41
yeah dude, because of Rocker's stardom
Eitan Davidson
7:41
Based on how slow this going its gonna be a long night
LOVE GALLO
7:43
as a rangers fan, cynically the way i see the kumar pick is that the team is drafting for need and is going to rush him to the big leagues. kinda hate that mentality if that's true
Eric A Longenhagen
7:43
i suppose it's possible, you gotta wait to see what they do with their next pick
Jobe
7:43
Did you see anything that led you to move Johnson's hit tool down to 60?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:44
approach is a little expansive
Larry
7:44
Who's the Dbacks top prospect now- Carroll, Jones, or Lawlar? What an incredible top three.
Eric A Longenhagen
7:44
The Draft Board has where the 50 FV and above guys would fall on the 100 (within a couple spots)
Jones
7:45
Green the guy?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:45
yep, said so a while ago
Jeb

Thank you for doing this; I'm guessing you're running on fumes and turnover is rough, even when you're happy for the people that are leaving. I always look forward to your content and will continue to subscribe to fangraphs for as long as you write.

For the first time in my life I am feeling it in my physical body, probably just because I'm getting older, and I have to change some stuff I think

This seems like the most talent heavy draft in quite some time at the top. Do you agree and if so where does it rank among the drafts you've covered?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:47
I do, I think early on during my tenure (if you look back at past draft lists) i was too aggressive with FV'ing some guys and on paper it may not look that way if you're just reading the site, but I love the hitters in this draft
Joe
7:48
Love the draft and all star events combo. This is awesome. Way to go MLB.
Eric A Longenhagen
7:49
industry folks aren't on board because of the overlap with scouting for 2023, and so close to deadline, etc.
I have one person saying Jacob Berry here
to Miami
Confirmed Jacob Berry
Benjamin
7:50
With cubs collier, think twins take lee or parada?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:50
Damn yo, can't believe they're both still around
Michael Scott
7:51
Can you explain to me the rocker "surprise" like I'm 5?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:52
A guy whose medical was whacked in a high-profile mishap, whose arm slot dropped from north/south to nearly sidearm, just went 3rd out of nowhere with no pre-draft smoke
7:53
have horton Cubs
Chrishanel
7:53
Is MLB Network doing major work on the audio mix or are people inexplicably not booing Manfred every time he comes to the podium?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:53
The folks inside the enclosure here are just very happy to be here and having a great time
Austin63867
7:53
Gonna be a good opportunity for the Cubs here
Guest
7:55

Eric A Longenhagen
7:56
Not sure, thought Cubs were a good fit. looking at the board...
