'Stros nab Aiken!

Well, smart pick. Shoot.

And there we go. Aiken.

Whoa

Hearing Marlins will take Kolek. They have loved his velo, easy delivery, upside. Eventually him + Jose Fernandez + Eovaldi, velo city.

 

Also, if you don't want me to post these here I won't.

Really, really want Jackson if he falls

Multiple confirmation of Kolek at 2 to Marlins. #MLBDraft

Ok no surprise there. Now it gets interesting.

Rodon is going to sliiiiiiiide

Oh boy! It's gonna get interesting!!!

So much for Kolek dropping.

 

I hope we don't see both Gordon/Rodon go 3/4.

So, this draft is setting up nicely for Chicago ....

WTF? Never heard this pick. Never ever ever. WTF is going on

Rodon is going to sliiiiiiiide

 

I don't think the Cubs will pass on him

I'm going to be sad if Jackson is one the board and we pass up on him

So much for Kolek dropping.

 

I hope we don't see both Gordon/Rodon go 3/4.

 

Then we get a real good hitting RF.

I don't think the Cubs will pass on him

 

I'm not so sure the Sox will, $6 mil is only a little over their slot value, I'd think they'd work out a deal

Kolek = Boof

Hearing White Sox will take LHP Carlos Rodon at No. 3

It's an arms race!!!

So much for Rodon sliding. I am stupid.

Great. Can't wait to face t his guy 4-5 times / year for the next 10 years.

Aside from the last-few-days smoke screens and faux drama, this is going more or less how it was projected over the past week.

 

Hey, at this point, one of Gordon and Jackson will be available. I'm still on the Nick Gordon bandwagon.

So it looks like Twins will get to choose between Jackson and Gordon - I bet they take Gordon

That would be ...unexpected.

 

Still doesn't change the likelihood of Gordon, I would think, as the top 3 arms are off the board.

So much for Rodon sliding. I am stupid.

 

Not really. He could slid if he got past the White Sox. Cubs are talking about saving some money and I'm not sure the Twins would have sacrificed extra money/picks for an overslot deal.

 

I think the Twins will have their choice of Gordon and Jackson. And they will take Gordon. I would take Jackson.

JJ Cooper @jjcoop36

Confident that Gordon going to Twins at No. 5 which was rumored by everyone coming in. Draft set up well for them.

Man the Cubs are gonna have one heck of lineup if they take Schwarber

cubs to take kyle schwarber, indiana c-of

I no longer believe in the Cubs leadership.
