2012 MLB Draft Thread

Yup, no surprise it's Almora. Max Fried to the Padres.

Good pick for the Cubs. Will make a great duo if they sign Soler as well.

Ur good bro

Padres get Max Fried. Local guy from SoCal. Super projectable LHP

Is pitchability a word?

 

[whocaresgobobcats]

Lots of speculation about Appel. Mainly, no one knows why he is falling. Definitely an interesting development. Some team will have to be very creative with how they sign him now, or risk going over the budget and incurring penalties.

Any injury concerns?

Ah, like girlfriendability test.

 

[whocaresgobobcats]

Any injury concerns?

Nope, nothing being reported.

 

[zjcvols]

Pittsburgh possibly got the best talent in this draft at #8...lucky bastards.

 

[whocaresgobobcats]

And there he goes. Appel to the Pirates. Mystery is over and Pirates are loaded with pitching.

Is Selig trying to do a Donald Sutherland, six beers deep, impression?

If the Pirates could manage to keep some of their talent...

The world may end if the Pirates and Astros ever trade farm talent.

Yes there are injury concerns with Appel and everyone has projected Almora to the Cubs

 

[whocaresgobobcats]

Pirates gonna have fun re-working the rest of their top 10 picks. Have a total budget of 6.6 million. Appel will eat most of that up.

 

[XtennesseeX]

Marlins take Andrew Heaney, Ok State.

I guess they will go fishing.

There were no injury concerns with him.

Heany, good arm for a team that needs pitching with a powerful offense.

Plenty of concern about his workload at Stanford.

Is he a Junior?

 

[whocaresgobobcats]

Courtney Hawkins to the Rockies? I like him a lot.

Plenty of concern about his workload at Stanford.

Is he a Junior?

Yeah. Every college stud has "workload" concerns.
