The season is upon us, even if spring is not.

2018 MLB Draft Picks
#18
#33 - Compensation (Eric Hosmer)
#34 - Compensation (Lorenzo Cain)
#40 (Competitive Balance Round A)

018 Draft Names to Watch

RHP Kumar Rocker, N Oconnee HS, Georgia.
Spoiler!

OF Jarred Kelenic, Waukasha West HS, WI
Spoiler!

1B Triston Casas, American Heritage HS (FL).
Spoiler!

RHP Carter Stewart, Eau de Gallie HS (Ga).
Spoiler!

ANY Any, Any (Any). Any current top projected pick who slides for injury concerns. Includes current top prospect prospect SP Brady Singer, U of Florida.

Current Prospects to Watch:

OF Seuly Matias - Huge tools. Hit 2 HR in Lexington (A) season opener.

1B Nick Pratto - Top pick in 17 has advanced approach and good glove; needs to start tapping into power in first full year in minors. Also at Lexington.

OF Michael Gigliotti - Good defender in CF, good OBP skills, plus baserunner. Next mainstay in CF for KC, IMO. Advanced college bat also starting at Lexington.

OF Khalil Lee - Probably has highest upside in Royals' system. Could hit 30 HR in majors, could steal 30 bases. Plus defensive ability in RF. Nice test at Wilmington this year.

3B Emmanuel Rivera - Really nice approach and good contact skills. Power is still developing. Also getting a good test at Wilmington.

SP Foster Griffin - Made nice strides in 2017. Needs to continue to progress in 2018. Could be a lefty version of Jakob Junis (good breaking ball that he can really manipulate, OK fastball, good command).

1B Samir Duenez - Duenez still is intriguing, hoping for a step forward in his power production this year at Northwest Arkansas, which would turn him into a legit prospect.

Others to keep an eye on:
SP Gerson Garabito (Wilmington), OF Marten Gasparini (Lexington), C MJ Melendez (Lexington), RP Tyler Zuber (lexington), RP Richard Lovelady (Omaha), SP Dan Tillo (Lexington), SS Nicky Lopez (NWA), SP Scott Blewett (NWA), OF Brewer Hicklen (Idaho Falls),

In general, Lexington and Wilmington are the most interesting spots to watch. Nice depth and a lot of interesting pieces at both.

I'm afraid that's the equivalent of what Seuly Matias will be.

I love seeing Sano and Buxton suck ass. If both were performing well the Twins would be a decent team. Instead they're stuck in no man's land.

Gmafb. You cut Escobar no matter what. He's been worthless for 3 straight years and now he's an old SS. Only a doofus would retain such a player
If the Royals had the same thoughts, they never would have signed him for this year. You're going to pay him no matter what. Unless you have a SS and 2nd baseman to replace who's there now, you just as well let him play. Mondesi can only play one of the positions. If whit leaves, who plays the other if you release Escobar?

Just read a Cardinals article suggesting they could trade Kolten Wong for Herrera. Are they that ****ing delusional to think the Royals would give up the top reliever available for a shitty 2B?

I don't think you understand, that once you become a Cardinal, your integrity reaches its pinnacle, your skills become legendary, and your value becomes higher than anyone else in sport, not just baseball. It is an honor for any team to trade for a Cardinal, no matter who they are.

This happens with almost every freaking Cardinals fan. They always think they can give up their trash for a decent player.

There is 0% chance we are swallowing $17M for the next two years of Wong. Even if he was released.

Silly. Wong has no value to a team in a rebuild.

Re: Escobar, I think we’ll see him ride out the year, regardless of Mondesi.

They want that insurance and want to see Mondesi prove his health and focus. They see Escobar as insurance for that.

Merrifield can move to CF if needed and continue to bounce around the diamond, if they keep him.
