2021 MLB Draft Discussion

[We'retheBoss]

Henry Davis went first overall and Jack Leiter went second.

As a Pirates fan, I was expecting one of the SS, but I'm good with Davis

So much high school talent in Georgia

 

[NC_Canes_11]

Good news. Painter isn’t making it to Gainesville.

Marlins just got the steal of the draft. I’ve seen Watson play multiple times. He’s as complete a high school shortstop as you’ll ever find. He’s a 5 tool kid who can really do it all.

No Del in the first round. Still a comp pick to the Reds and six picks in Comp Balance Round A tonight.

I think ESPN is trying to hide (badly) some technical issues

This is brutal to watch

I had to switch to MLB Network. Way too much Chris Burke after they lost their Denver crew.

This is consistent with what I’ve read about the kid. A couple scouts said he has as much upside as any prospect in the draft.

I’ve been watching MLB Network for the past hour and a half and it’s not much better

Del slips to Day 2. The big story for us tomorrow should be Irv Carter.

So much power for his size and he can flat out fly. He can go 6.6 in his sleep.

 

[BP Joe]

Good news. Painter isn’t making it to Gainesville.

Or Chase Petty (RHP from NJ).

 

[scane]

Day 2 is underway

 

[scane]

Jud Fabian goes 40 to the Red Sox. There had been a good bit of buzz about Del for that spot.

 

[scane]

50 picks in. Slot for the last pick was $1.47 million.

 

[scane]

Ugh at the Day 2 breaks so MLB Network can go to commercial.

 

[scane]

Have to really ask at this point: Should Del have gone to the Cape like Fed?

Still eligible to come back no?

Still eligible to come back no?

Two more years if he wants them
