Needs from the draft: 1: SP 2: RP 3: 3B 1 28 P 21 2 pitch starter with average to below average splits. His plus control will not save him from the homers he will give up in his career. He needs to hope for a 3rd pitch to some now develop 2 71 CF 18 Speedy hitter who runs well and hits effectively, but his struggle at times with his poor left/right splits. He still fields average for a CF and might find a happier home at 2B. 3 103 P 18 2 plus s pitch reliever. He has the ability to recover quickly which will come in handy for the long innings he might get himself into. His pitching will struggle against left and right handers alike. 4 135 P 19 1 strong pitch and 1 average pitch compliment a lack of control and power. Lacks potential to make the pros for a long time. 5 167 P 18 Power control and bad splits Robin does not below in the league. His 6 million dollar demands should keep it that way Summary:
Grade: D+
Needs from the draft: 1: CF 2: 2B 3: C 1 7 RF 18 --- Solid hitter with blazing speed and the ability to steal at will. He is weak defensively but his bat more than makes up for his shortcomings. He might not sign as he might still go to college 2 50 RP 20 --- Projectable closer with 2 dominant pitches and good control. He will be tough on righties and could be a shutdown closer in a few years 3 82 SP 22 $425K Good control but lacks both the pitches and the splits to be truly effective. Projects to eat many minor league innings with his good stamina and control though 4 114 SP 20 $350K Another pitcher like waterson, who will eat many a minor league innings but never make a big league roster. 5 146 RP 19 $250K Projects to be a fringe big league reliever with below average splits and 2 average pitches Summary:
Grade: C+
Needs from the draft: 1: RP 2: SP 3: CF 1 3 CF 18 $3,820K Average center fielder with plus power and excellent splits. He should also steal a few bases in his career. Might have been a reach at the 3rd overall pick. 2 46 P 18 --- 4 good pitches with plus control and good stamina make him a great 2nd rounder. His signability issues is the reason he fell here. If Iowa can sign him he is a great pick 3 78 2B 22 $425K Below average batting eye but still a good hitter with plus contact and fielding. He should make a major league impact at least as a defensive replacement 4 110 2B 18 $350K Slap hitting speeder with good base running he makes a good pinch runner or a leadoff hitter. He has poor batting eye so he will strikeout more than his share, but he will also make a pro roster some where 5 142 P 19 $250K No control and poor splits make him an inning eater at best. Poor 5th rounder who needs to be a DITR to be effective. Summary:
Grade: B (c- if they don't sign Taylor)
Washington D.C. old school warriors:
Needs from the draft: 1: RP 2: SP 3: 1B 1 9 RP 18 --- Top flight relief pitcher with 2 plus pitches and good stamina and control. He will strike out many batters when he gets to the show, but he is a major question mark about signing 2 52 SS 19 $550K Defensively better suited for 3B. He would be a weak SS, he has no power but can hit for contact he is weak against righties. He was probably a reach in the 2nd round 3 84 P 19 $425K 2 pitched starters like this have limited success in Ryan. Add in the fact he has average splits and Franklin is a bottom of the rotation long reliever at best 4 116 LF 22 $350K No power speedster with excellent base running skills. he might not be a good every day starter but might be useful on the bench 5 148 CF 21 --- NO INFO Summary:
Grade: C-(D- if they don't sign MacRae)
