Then he dominated the 2015 playoffs, won the deciding Game 5 in NY, and I forgot it all. |

Both were considered massive busts in their career as starting pitchers. Both reinvented themselves and dominated the bullpen. |

After doing a little more reading and getting through the excellent big board on Fangraphs https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/earl...s/#more-288781
I’m not sure Witt will hold up as a consensus top pick. Some questions about his hit tool and he’s old for his class. The Catcher from Oregon State, Ruschmamnn, May end up being the top guy if he repeats his strong sophomore campaign with the bat. |

Hoskins vs Schwarber was pretty great, Hoskins hit 20 in the second round, and no one else had hit 20 yet, so I thought Schwarber was done. Schwarber had a slow start but then got hot and cranked out the 21st to win in his bonus 30 seconds.
Now it's Muncy (Dodgers) vs Bryce Harper. Let's see if the home town favorite can beat the dark horse of the competition. |

Harper and his dad cheated big time when it came to pitch timing; such a shame when it honestly seems like he could have won without it.

Yeah Twitter is pretty mad about that. Maybe it's because people don't like Harper.

He probably still wins, but he probably should have gone into the extra time needing 3 maybe 4 HRs instead of just 1.
He still ended up with 8 less HRs overall than Schwarber. |

It was awesome. And looked like they were waiting for someone to tell them when they could pitch

They should probably just get rid of that rule of the ball having to land, but I'm assuming they have it to protect the kids out on the field trying to catch the balls.
