Keith Law was on Petro last week talking about how bad this draft is. I’m paraphrasing but KL basically said this may be the worst draft he can remember- dearth of top-end talent and not much depth.

The Royals are literally their dream scenario. Bad team spends because they can't wait around as they keep getting screwed in the lottery and can't count on it. Royals maybe make the playoffs with players anyone could have acquired and it sends the message every team should spend to do the same thing as if it's just that easy. In theory that will drive demand and raise the average contract meaning players get more money, which is a one of the biggest goals of the MLPA.

No way we actually try to develop him as a pitcher, right?

Caglione is high upside for sure. The chase rate has me concerned, but he’s also 6-5 with crazy long arms and is powerful.
The ability to use him on the mound mitigates some of the risk you’d usually feel drafting a 1B-only player that high, though. |

I can't seem to find an answer on this, but I have reason to believe this is the first guy since 2000 the royals have drafted in the first three rounds with true 80 raw power. I think moose was 70? I'm glad we at least entertain the idea that power hitters will be just fine hitting at the K and we don't have to avoid them.
