Where is Gage Wood in this draft without the shoulder issues?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:38
Probably still in this area
Mo
7:39
Did Baltimore float Irish?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:39
Would be a baller move if they did, but nobody picking in front of them has said that he has a huge number or something...
7:40
it's possible whoever is talking to the Excel people isn't who I'm texting with, though
Mike
7:41
Hopefully the Twins can convince this guy to swing. Not exactly an exciting write-up.
Eric A Longenhagen
7:41
Good shortstop
let's see if they can make him stronger
Tiger Fan
7:41
Noooo I wanted Cunningham
Eric A Longenhagen
7:42
Yeah, he's your guys' type, too
Five HS shortstops so far
dip stained khakis

I just want to say if there are any MLB front office employees reading, you work too hard and don't get paid enough and it's your own fault.
Eric A Longenhagen
7:42
lmao
7:43
chasing that ring
Jason

Why can't the Rays help themselves?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:43
It works for them for 20 years?
Tim
7:43
What do you think about Cubs obsession with cape cod performance?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:44
They're not alone.
Richard McCown
7:44
What picks do you like the most so far?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:46
Doyle, Kayson, Irish
Zak
7:46
have you ever put a grade above 80 on a tool? is "Ike Irish" an 85 name?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:46
No, you can't.
7:50
So seems like their was video of Irish being drunk and saying out of pocket stuff. I don't know the nature of the language used, specifically. Should I find it and play it on my phone really loud in the draft arena?
7:51
Hearing Xavier Neyens here to Houston
DBRuns
7:51
what do you mean by "out of pocket"?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:51
Derogatory, perhaps bigoted or hateful in some way.
AJ
7:51
Drunk Irish? Surprised he fell past Boston
Eric A Longenhagen
7:52
Like this ^ except not funny.
David
7:53
ESPN seems to avoid talking a lot about some of the Boras-related influence on the draft as you alluded to in your mock. How much do agents influence have in shaping editorial narrative with broadcast coverage?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:57
Probably some. It depends on which of us you're talking about. I can barely stand them. We just don't speak the same language. Boras isn't talking to many/any of us himself
7:58
Hearing Southisiene to Atlanta
Bill
7:59
Biggest surprise faller (of guys not yet picked)
Eric A Longenhagen
7:59
Shedeur!
No, I'd have thought someone would have run to safety with Bodine or Taylor by now
8:01
Hearing Sean Gamble to KC
8:06
Oh this is yost btw
lol sorry
lost in my phone texting people gearing up for the comp round
Phil
8:07
How is Southisene pronounced?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:07
SOUTH iss scene
