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.

Hunter Dozier is such a likeable dude and has been showing some good contact lately. A lot of people had given up on him, but I want nothing more than to see him succeed. Trade Duda for a jizz rag when he comes back and let Dozier ride the year out.

Not sure we're getting a rag or some jizz, let alone a jizz rag, for Duda.

He’s a really good person and popular with teammates.

The skills he has shown so far - taking good ABs, working counts, taking walks, hitting the ball to all fields, making good LD contact - are all traits that showed in his good seasons in the minors.

He reminds me quite a bit of DJ LaMahieu of the Rockies and long has. Similar bodies and skill sets. They experimented with him at 2B, too bad it didn’t work.

If he continues to hit, he should continue to play. Barring a long slump, they should just roll with him and see what he can do.

I saw him in Arizona a couple of years ago. He was huge, way too big/bulky to play third. His bat also looked a little slow through the zone. I was pleasently surprised to see him this year. He has slimmed down some and at least looks the part.

Looks like another Merrifield mistake by Dayton Moore & company.

Why don’t they call these guys up sooner & let them play? And speaking of that why just Martinez trade away to the Cards for a bag of peanuts?

Awful scouting.

They should have called up Merrifield earlier last year, but at least there they did it because they wanted to let Mondesi play. It wasn't like they blocked him for a nobody.

While I did carry the ball out, I’m unsure what doorway you would be referencing.

Awful scouting.

Dozier was hurt most of 2017. He really struggled in 2015 before putting it together in 2016 at Omaha.

He started this season in Omaha because he didn’t show in ST he was ready for MLB time, and they got Duda cheap.

Martinez was a mistake, as discussed last week, but he also was in independent ball before his breakthrough 2015 season at Omaha. It’s not like the guy was a youngster who came through the system and got overlooked.
