Do you think the Mariners picking a college catcher has any impact on Harry Ford?
Eric A Longenhagen
9:03
No.

Do you have specifics of summerhill’s off the field issues that you referenced?
Eric A Longenhagen
9:05
There are a couple of things I want to iron out about that before I say so.

Red Sox with Witherspoon and Phillips is a really nice duo to develop.
Billy Bob

How concerning is Fiens swing?? Posted solid number on the circuit but didn’t excel his senior year and has what I’ve heard described as a “wonky” swing
Eric A Longenhagen

I was worried about it but teams mostly were all over him coming out of last summer.

Merrill comp for Cannarella. Sure thing...
Eric A Longenhagen
9:10
If he gets stronger he could be jackie bradley

Feels like Miami got some really nice college position player value in a draft where it's relatively thin
Eric A Longenhagen
9:10
Agreed

I thought DeRosa did a good job for someone who isn't this world all the time. He's at least not comping every player to a hall of famer and he's coherent to listen to.

Any reason you know why the Dodgers would prefer Davalan to Cannarella? Seems like Cannarella is just the better prospect
Eric A Longenhagen

Better contact hitter

anybody left you think the nats could be floating down?
Eric A Longenhagen

I like a lot of the high school arms left

Any sense on if the giants are more college oriented under posey for top of the draft (realize it’s a one year sample and that Michael Holmes is still there)?
Eric A Longenhagen
9:12
I think that's still tbd. Thought pre-draft Holmes would make the pick.
9:13
As I did the mock that's what I was led to believe, anyway.
Love that 750 of you are still here, you heathens
I'm gonna quit soon, though

Did they force everyone to leave the auditorium before round 2?
Eric A Longenhagen
9:15
No, people are milling about
Fauske just came off the board with no announcement

CHW got one of their fave Midwest prep guys lined up here?
Eric A Longenhagen
9:15
Nailed it, your eminence.
9:16
Okay, I have to split so I can follow the draft since picks are no longer being announced
Thank you guys so much for coming. I really appreciate your readership. I wanna thank David Gerth for his contributions to our draft scouting before he left for his Red Sox job and I want to thank James Fegan for helping with the pro lists. Both were invaluable.

I'll have day one analysis up on the site tomorrow.
Please check that out
