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.

Give him a couple of more years and maybe he can get that walk number up.

I personally think Moore is an idiot if he expects to win now, but I guess we'll see. I still think he's expecting to make chicken salad out of mostly chicken shit.

Keller

Lopez
Skoglund

Do we think a couple of those guys that don't make the rotation can be upgrades in short relief ie Wade Davis.

I don't know if I'd be too optimistic about that. The only one might be Keller and there's zero chance they take him out of the rotation. Guys like Skoglund and Fillmyer seem like starters to me with their stuff. That is really the key though. If Dayton wants to have a better team he has to fix the bullpen. Not even cyborgs but just guys who give you a fighting chance compared to the Maurers and Boyers.

Duffy and Kennedy have potential to be top shelf relivers but I doubt they get taken out of rotation.

Keller, Junis and Fillmyer are locks to start IMO.

He also needs to avoid giving up first round picks for clowns like Kennedy.

What? How often has he done that? Once, and that was right after we won the World Series. I think that's about 379th on the list of things to be concerned about.

IMHO, not even close. This team has turned a corner from bad to decent. Now if they continue to take another step next year, then we can compete in the Central.

It appears we may have found a few more gems in pitching, some of the young talent has had a chance to play and can focus on what to do next to get better.

I am optimistic with the future.

He's been hurt most of the year, even when the Indians traded for him it felt like taking a chance on a guy who's hurt... but it looks like he's going to be ready to go for the playoffs.

The Brewers just took the lead in the bottom of the 8th over the Tigers when Ryan Braun hit a ball to the wall... Tigers RF got a glove on it, but it popped up and out of the glove, rolled along the top of the fence and over for a HR. That's going to be on all the highlight shows tonight.
