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.

That's not how pitching works. Third time through the order you have to reinvent yourself, and find ways to get guys out. Throw down the middle against mlb hitters....not good.

The guy was making his 7th career start. I'm sure his nerves were probably cranked up to 15 in that last inning. Even if he wanted to throw it right down the middle it's not exactly easy. I'd love to know the number of pitchers who took a perfect game into the 9th inning in one of their first 10 career starts. It has to be a pretty small list.

Wacha took a no-hitter into his 9th career start against the Nationals and lost it on an infield single with two outs.

Jose Jimenez threw a no-no in start fifteen, and Bud Smith did in his 11th.

Not perfect games, though.

The first batter wasn't going to take the bat off his shoulders under any circumstance.

Yeah I was thinking Bud Smith was a guy who threw one early in his career. I didn't realize Wacha's was even earlier.

Then again Kerry Wood's 20 K game was like in his 5th start and that might arguably be the best pitching performance ever.

I know pitching, I pitched through college. Its not as easy as it looks, and I cant even fathom what its like for a pro player the 3rd time through the order with a perfect game on the line in your 1st 10 starts. But yeah. just throw it down the middle you pos seems reasonable.

Strikes, doesn't mean just throw up meat balls. You can't afford a walk. He threw two in the damn dirt hoping for swings and he didn't have to. They were not going to try and **** up the game. But of course the internet potchers from highschool say stupid shit like reinvent yourself in the 9th on a peefect game run
Dumb ****s.

I think it was the highest by game score.
