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.

Dozier at third and Moose at first, and Prison Bitch's boy Esky in center (although Whit is at second!). I see Ned has reached "****it".

Also, we have two guys that have hit double digit home runs in our lineup - Salvy and Moose. Boston has three guys in their lineup that HAVEN'T hit double digit home runs. That's pretty cool.

Interesting. That equates to 6-2 and an 87-88 mph fastball. Not bad for a 16-year old at all.

Depending on how projectable he is, he might be a big bonus type if he were from Latin America.

It’s creative if nothing else. I like it.

So where will he play until he's 18 years old and of a typical age for a rookie baller?

The Padres are enduring their first agonizing Bad Eric Hosmer stretch (usually it follows a hot stretch where he gets overconfident and decides to start trying to pull everything).

I wonder if Boston is regretting going with Mitch Moreland and not taking Scott Boras up on a 150m deal?

If Moustakas goes to the Yankees, is anyone going to root for them? I'll be honest, I am.

They are a fun team, even though they are the Yankees and I should hate them, The front office did everything right. Now they have a surplus of a farm system and a top offense and 3 closers in relief. Just need a first basemen worth a damn and another ace.

Dammit will the Orioles ever win a freaking game? With the Royals record they should have the #1 pick locked down but Baltimore is keeping it close.

I understand the Yankees and Red Sox of the world have a huge advantage in free agency and being able to keep their own guys, but it's almost impossible to compete when they're also able to draft guys like Aaron Judge and Mookie Betts. We haven't been able to find anyone remotely close to that level of player.
