Any possible medical issues with Waldrep that could be causing him to drop?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:48
Not that I've heard about
relief risk maybe
8:50
So Nimmala and then Chase Davis to STL
8:54
Colt Emerson to Seattle after Chase Davis

Am I just a fanboy or does Waldrep sound like a Yankee pitching prospect to you too?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:55
Don't think he gets there
Shapes
8:55
any thoughts why cardinals would pass on waldrup? Seems like they are desperate for pitching
Eric A Longenhagen
8:55
Just BPA for them I think. He's good
Ben Schneider
8:56
At this point is it fair to say the Jays are more willing to draft risk than other teams?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:56
Yes

Perez on ESPN just said that Arjun prays to the Sun God ???
Eric A Longenhagen
8:56
Not any crazier than any of the others, I can see the sun is actually there!
Pants
8:58
Where's the spot for post draft beers?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:58
Better question for Meg but I'm gonna be writing until I pass out
Bill
8:58
What is your favorite pick so far?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:58
Wherever Waldrep goes
Anders
9:00
Tell me why the emerson pick for seattle isn't terrible
Eric A Longenhagen
9:01
He's a lefty-hitting shortstop with a sweet swing and a great shot to stay there. He's basically what Coel Young was, and that's working out
Guest
9:01
Any Braves intel
Eric A Longenhagen
9:01
Think they'd do Waldrep if he's there but not firm
have some Ralphy Velazquez buzz to CLE but not confirmed
Mike
9:01
Guardians hard to predict
Eric A Longenhagen
9:01
Yes
Hoz
9:03
who the 'dres (padres) going with this year? Another unexpected i.e. merrill
Eric A Longenhagen
9:04
Have them on HS bats, Velazquez was one but he's gonna go to CLE I think
Mike
9:04
Houck to Atlanta ?
Eric A Longenhagen
9:04
Waldrep to ATL I think
A
9:08
Waldrep is up before the end of the year if he goes to Atlanta?
Eric A Longenhagen
9:09
Would be interesting, they def push guys fast but Waldrep already thrown so many innings
Think SD got their pocket picked by CLE and are now on the phone trying to cut a deal
Bowie
9:10
Any word on who NY is taking
Eric A Longenhagen
9:10
George Lombard, but I don't have SD yet which is hilarious
Dan
9:10
So the Mariners basically have two Cole Youngs now?
Eric A Longenhagen
9:11
Young has bulked up enough that he's now a much different player. Skill foundation was the same as Emerson a year ago but now Young is a jacked 2B with power
Guest
9:11
Yankees not taking Stafura???
