Any word what Pirates going to do
Eric A Longenhagen
7:42
Sounds like Gonzalez but I'm not totally sure, not sure enough to officially report it
Jebrini
7:48
What do you  think? Is Foscue more likely at 10-15? or 20-25?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:48
10-15, vacuum of college bats I think he fills
J
7:48
Where do you think Veen ends up?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:49
Rockies
just great value at that point, it's what I'd do
Billy G
7:50
Padres going Hassell over Veen?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:51
I think so, but those two names were the guys it seemed like the room was split between. I'm a Veen guy, personally. I don't have confirmation they've gone Hassell yet.

This draft is wild so far.

Heard anything about the Angels possibly taking Bailey?
Eric A Longenhagen
7:53
He makes sense from a demographic standpoint (young for college, up the middle, performed) but I have no direct dope
Trent Hauser
8:02
Can Hassell play CF?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:02
I think so but don't think he's plus or anything. Some orgs think it's a corner.
8:03
Sounds like Angels mix is Reid Detmers and Ed Howard, might depend on $...
biscuit pants
8:12
spencer torkelton is a grade 80 name
Eric A Longenhagen
8:12
agreed
DJ Spin
8:12
I saw some chatter that Hendrick's stock was slipping. Do you think he could slide all the way to the Pirates at #31?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:12
No, I think he goes 12
8:19
GIants mix sounds like a couple guys right now....
Hooper
8:19
If you're Austin Martin isn't going to the Blue Jays a best case scenario out of the teams in the top 5? Such a great time to come into that organization.
Eric A Longenhagen
8:20
Agree, their core is so, so exciting. I'm jonesing for bseball
RS
8:21
Soderstrom to SF?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:21
He's one of them....
J
8:21
any chance for Abel with giants?? please
Eric A Longenhagen
8:21
doesn't sound like he is
8:26
I have a bunch of people who think Bailey goes 13 but none of them are sure for sure
so I'm not tweeting it but there you go.
Ace
8:29
The Giants go w/ a C? Obviously you pick BPA, but is this the highest upside player that exists for them? And C seems like QB - where so much of the value is the position involved.
Eric A Longenhagen
8:29
Just having seen a lot of Tommy Joseph, and knowing what catchin inventory is around the industry, it's fine having both of them
DM
8:29
Farhan strikes! College performer to the team that already owns Bart, lol
TG19
8:30
who is in play for philly
Eric A Longenhagen
8:30
Abel, Cavalli, maybe Ed Howard, maybe Foscue if Texas doesn't take him
romorr
8:30
Not overreacting to the Orioles pick at 2, but what are some names that need to be there at 30/39 for Elias to strut around Baltimore this weekend?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:31
Bitsko, PCA, maybe Wilcox?
AJ
8:33
where are some landing spots for Soderstrom now?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:33
Mets?
Pat
8:34
Elias said the other day that with a pick as high as 2, they have to take the player they like the best and if it happens to be under slot, even better. Do you buy Kjerstad was the top guy on their board with the number two pick?
Eric A Longenhagen
8:35
No but I bet the gap between them is basically what I have on The Board.
