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.

I wouldn’t do it. You pick up another year of control, but Senzel has had some weird injury issues and Mondesi is established.

Mondesi also impacts the game in more ways and might have more power than Senzel to boot.

Really want them picking 1-2. Right now, it looks like Rutschman and Witt will be the clear top 2 with a big gap after. I want one of them.

It is too bad on Matias. Same with Gigliotti.

There are pieces of that group that bear watching, too. Brewer Hicklen. Carlos Herndandez, Janser Lara, Yefri Del Rosario.

The A+ and AA groups next year will be fun to follow.

Don't sleep on Maarten Gasparini, though.

That's the one question about Senzel. BUT - he's a top 5 prospect and has obliterated MiLB pitching. He's a no-doubt MLB bat and prob an AS caliber one, and you could open up SS for Nicky Lopez.

IF of Senzel, Lopez, Whit and OHearn to me, is stout.

Now that Mondesi has proven he can hit MLB pitching, his upside has been solidified. IMO. He could be a 10-year player here in KC.

Does MLB.com video just spin and never play for anyone else? Somehow on 2 different computers (both macs), trying multiple browsers, over 2 days, this is all I ever get:

Hard to believe, but they're 10 games behind Baltimore for the 1st pick. That race should be over this week. The Marlins are only 5 behind the Royals with 14 to go, so they have a shot.

If the Royals finish 9-5 they'll have a winning record the 2nd half of the season.

I have actually hope for next season along with the 2nd pick in the draft.

Should be a fun year.

And another stolen base. I’ve always been a huge Mondesi fan, but even I would have told you this type of season would be highly unrealistic starting out. He’s doing in 2018 what I would have wanted in year 4.

How close were we to actually doing that? It's been a while, but I seem to remember we made a fairly competitive offer? I can't imagine having that contract along with Gordon and Kennedy.

Heard conflicting stories but if it wasnt for the Padres he would be making bank as a Royal.
