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.

People said the same thing about Hos and Moose’s walkoffs in 2012.

Three years later, Hos would hit a walk off in a World Series.

Perez’s offense was a huge surprise. He was a tremendous defensive catcher who was expected to be a Martin Maldonado type (plus-plus D, meh bat).

They moved Myers off of C because his bat was so advanced, they didn’t want to hold him back for the time it would take his defense to catch up.

I recall Perez's defense was MLB ready when he was in the minors, but his bat was meh.

I came in here just to say the same thing. I haven’t gotten to watch a lot of baseball this year, but box score is starting to look a lot closer to what i wanted to see. Mix in a few more walks and I’d be ecstatic.

I’ve also heard people say O’Hearn isn’t close to his production. What’s a legitimate expectation for him? Low average but above average OPS?

It’s hard to peg what O’Hearn will actually be. He was inconsistent as a minor leaguer.

The power looks real - especially with the major league ball. He could be another player like Merrifield, who took a long track to the majors but made one final adjustment and took the next step.

Or he could be a flash in the pan.

It's too bad Matias couldn't finish the year healthy playing a part in this run. As negative as I often am I'm excited for Matias, Pratto, Isbel, Melendez, Lynch, and Kowar. Hopefully Singer also hits the ground running next year.

I was all aboard the suck for #1 pick train, but I see the value in positive results at this point. Especially because, from everything I've read, there's no clear generational superstar at the top of the draft.

We'd probably get the baseball equivalent of Eric Fischer.

I’d prefer to not slip past number 2. Miami is around 6 games out of that slot.
