No, he's strong and he can hit. High probability type

Bart is putting up great numbers at Ga Tech. What would his MLB eta be and what would hold that up more (bat or glove)?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
12:49
late 2019 or 2020? Him and Madrigal should move fast. Bart for me is 45 hit, 55-60 power (65 raw), 40-45 runner, 55-60 glove, 65 arm

Has Hankins' stock dropped more because of health or inconsistency this spring?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
12:50
Health isn't an issue at this point, his breaking ball has just backed up a lot since the summer and he's passing physicals so there isn't a clear explanation.

You mentioned Cincy liked Bart, but if one of Bohm or Madrigal is there at #5, would the Reds take either of them over Singer?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
12:50
We know they love Madrigal, but I don't think he gets there

What kind of major leaguer do you think Austin Riley will be / could be? I've heard various opinions regarding his suggested ceiling.  Do you think he'll get a call this year? Thanks!
AvatarKiley McDaniel
12:51
45-50 hit, 60-65 power, 45-50 defense at 3B. Guessing it's either this summer or 12 days into 2019.

Is it difficult to project Mike Siani as a hitter, or are his future hit and power grades pointing toward average?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
12:53
50-55 hit, 50 power, CF fit, something like that

Should I be at all excited about what Gavin Lux and Zach Reks have been doing this season?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
12:55
Lux has some tools so sure. Reks was a numbers-only senior sign that's a smallish LF with no tools and a weird swing but huge numbers at Kentucky--probably an org guy.

Side question: does The Board include all the 2018 draft prospects you guys have seen?  That would be awesome, albeit a lot of work.
AvatarKiley McDaniel
12:56
It will include hundreds of draft guys in a week or so

How big of a project is Huascar Ynoa and what is his ceiling?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
12:56
up to 98 with a sinker, three above average pitches at times, command still needs to come a little more. Chance to be pretty good

Billy Eppler is a great GM. He's gotten the Angels more competitive and made monumental strides in building the farm. I haven't been this excited about the minor league system in over a decade. I think the Angels have 5-6 really good prospects and some decent depth. Am I overrating the system because we've gotten so used to having bad to marginal talent for so long?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
12:58
I mean it has been bad for awhile but it's definitely solid now, with Jose Soriano, Trent Deveaux and Griffin Canning all moving up in the update to THE BOARD soon, so the job he's done in that area has been effective so far, albeit with a low bar to clear

Thoughts on Yankees' Garrett Whitlock? Solid start to the year and I believe they just bumped him up a level? Thanks!
AvatarKiley McDaniel
12:58
Heavy sinker/slider type probably middle reliever

I'm an Atlanta Braves fan who wants the team to draft Jarred Kelenic.  Please tell me this is happening
AvatarKiley McDaniel
12:59
Well the teams don't know who they're drafting yet so literally no one can help you with this
Just A Guy
12:59
In cold weather states, do you guys utilize word of mouth from area scouts to value prospects that you can't get eyes on?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:00
Well we do that everywhere but Eric was just in PA, NJ, NY and Wisconsin so we also go there.
Mark

Someone said McKenzie Gore is a #4 starter - what say you?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:00
Let's all attack Someone!
Willie Calhoun

Juan Soto is currently pegged for a FV 50. Is that trending upwards?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:00
Yes
Jonathan
1:01
How many prospects on the Board do you think will see FV changes during your first update?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:01
Maybe 20?
Ed
1:01
Please tell me no teams are seriously entertaining the idea of drafting Luke Heimlich?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:01
Sounds like team are being very cautious, but don't know if anyone is thinking about it seriously or not
Jimmy
1:02
Buy or sell : Brendan Rodgers will have better career than tulo?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:03
Gonna have to SELL here but Rodgers will be good, needs to improve pitch selection a bit
Mike
1:03
Saw you mentioned Denaburg might go to school. Any chance Connor Scott or Seigler do?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:03
Sounds like no and no
Just A Dude
1:03
Buy or sell the Braves going all-in this season and being major players at the deadline?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
1:04
SELL probably more of adding role players and maintaining the core prospects if they stay in contention
Snapper Bean

Seems like its starting to solidify as 1.  Mize 2. Bart 3. Bohm.  Agree or disagree?
