Roughly $45M, some would argue more given that Moncada was deemed "worth" $63M when he signed
1:17
And Craig also wrote about how to convert those numbers into minor league prospects https://blogs.fangraphs.com/an-update-to-prospect-valuation/

What are the chances Hunter Bishop or Bryson Stott is available at 14 for the Phillies?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:17
Bishop 5%, Stott 15%

What's the biggest advantage of scouting in person?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:18
getting to see the between innings dizzy bat races instead of commericals

Any reason Kyren Paris has dropped a few spots on THE BOARD?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:19
Some of the other young prep hitters (Cavaco, Henderson, Volpe) sounds like they're a little higher than Paris

When you hear a story, good or bad, about the makeup of a player who is projected to go top five or so rounds in the draft, is that something that all 30 teams are also going to hear? Or does stuff like that not always reach every team?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:20
Typically yes, and many of them probably hear it and have better/more data to make them think it isn't a great data point to make a decision off of
1:21
We've heard one guy in our top 10 gives teams a weird vibe in his home visits but we still aren't sure that matters. Some scouts thought Bryce Harper was a bad guy to the point that it would impact his performance and they were wrong. Some said the same about Josh Beckett. One of the guys in our top 10 prospects in baseball spooked some teams with his home visit and that wasn't predictive...so you're going to get 30 different answers to any one data point.

Did you see the driveline post trying to rank player development? Curious to hear your thoughts since you have a bit of a background. Is there any better way for public to quantify this with available data?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:24
Saw it, haven't gotten around to reading it yet, but I've liked their series, so I'll probably like that, too

If BAL takes Adley, it would be the first time since _____ that a preseason projected top pick maintained 1-1 status all the way through draft day
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:25
I was asked this a few days ago. Harper is one, Strasburg is one, I think David Price was as well. Not sure who else had pulled it off more recently off the top of my head.

I’ve seen some information that if the Braves fail to sign their supplemental #9 pick they’ll receive another pick next year, I’ve also seen it said that they won’t, can you confirm which one is true?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:26
I'm almost certain they do not get another comp pick

1:27
I know they're currently out of our pick range on your board and mock, but is there any chance Bishop or Bleday make it to Toronto's pick at All?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:27
Bleday no, Bishop maybe 7.5% chance?

Does Hampton have signability concerns at this point?  Could he be in play for Pittsburgh? Or is he too risky?  Team needs a prospect jolt after the big 4.   Definitely a position player? Team has only signed (and then traded) 1 pitcher in the first round since 2012!
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:28
I would guess Hampton goes 11-20 for around slot

David Appleman said they would add college stats to Fangraphs soon! I've been bamboozled!!! That'll teach me to trust a man with a fruit for a last name
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:29
Sounds like it's still coming soon but it's Appelman so he's named after a former Stanford pitcher

Are you able to "turn off" your scouting brain when watching baseball or is it just constantly evaluating tools?

Usually beer helps

Is THE BOARD Environmentally friendly and made out of recycled materials?

Does Cole Tucker have the most swag in the Pirates org, despite Travis Swaggerty also being in the system? I'll take my answer off the air
