I can't think of a better approach

You guys have Brett Baty ranked really high despite his age, which suggests you guys must really believe in the bat. How does he compare to a guy like Tristan Casas, who the Red Sox took 26th last year. Would Justin Morneau be a good player comp for his high end upside?

Kiley McDaniel

Baty can play 3B, at least for now and Casas was 1B only. Baty may have a slightly better bat, but at the plate they aren't super different.

Does the Carter Stewart decision affect the negotiating situation of college seniors at all? Could they use Japan or Korea as an alternative to improve their bargaining leverage?

Kiley McDaniel

1:53

Could, but likely won't this year

When you update the board, will there be a non-Adley player above a 50 FV?

Kiley McDaniel

1:54

Don't think so

Eh,

1:54

Do teams have a big board in a sense? How do they determine the they decide at what point they would take an underslot deal and allocate it in the later rounds?

Kiley McDaniel

1:54

Might decide early but often don't make the call until right before the draft starts, or during the draft

Colby Johnson

How does Jackson Rutledge compare to Nate Pearson at the same stage? I've read that there are some questions about his command/control, whereas Nate was always thought to have pretty good control even as an amateur. Thoughts?

Kiley McDaniel

1:56

Rutledge is bigger and has a better breaker, has been more consistent in his draft year in terms of stuff and control.

Kiley is currently stalking a 17 year old pitching prospect with a white panel van that says "Free Prospect Evaluations" on the side in spray paint. Chat is now delayed.
