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.

If you think he's going to be a career 2.5 ERA guy, you have another thing coming. He's just another middling back end starter. No more no less.

Fillmyer was supposed to start Sunday, so who knows what they're going to do now.

Dude throws a 96 mph cutter. I don't know if he's going to be an All-Star but I wouldn't close the book on the guy just yet. That's a nasty weapon.

They did. They just had the contract flipped compared to the Padres.

The amazing thing is they still aren't even the worst team in the league. It's truly amazing.

I find that hard to believe. Manny Machado alone is better than our entire 25 man roster.

Yes but Chris Davis may be worse than anyone on our roster so it's a push.

I can handle them giving time to guys like Orlano or Escobar, who are not part of the future of this team... when it doesn't take away from guys who are, like Mondesi.

He should be playing and hitting every day, especially against a hard-throwing young pitcher like Lopez.

I'm so tired of hearing about character. That mother ****er needs to hang up and become a minister.

Rays catcher Wilson Ramos is out with an injury. Salvy is going to start the All-Star game.
