Somehow, some way, Eric Blonigen is an anagram for Joe Pohlad.

I expected Young to go over slot. Curious where savings from Houston will go. Agbayani?

Saints currently tied for 4th in OPS in the International League. They're 5th in SLG, 4th BA, 8th BB. Nate Spears might be on to something. Then again, Saints batters have the second most strikeouts in the league.

I was excited to see Brooks Lee line from the game last night when I read Witcha put up 16 runs on 18 hits. Shocked to see he went 0 for 6! Never would have expected that.

Plenty of money came off the books to bolster the rotation through free agency. Our farm system isn’t deep enough to trade pieces in the top 5-10 for potentially one year of an ace. Too risky right now, in my opinion.

Perfect Game lists him as their 467th best HS prospect with a college commit to Northwest Florida State. So ... who knows?

Omari Daniel, SS, The Walker School, GA. Looks like he may have been injured his Senior season. Appeared in only a handful of games. Bio from MaxPreps: Omari Daniel is a 2022 SS/ with a 6-2 180 lb. frame from Smyrna, GA who attends The Walker School. Recorded a 6.69 second 60-yard dash time. Projectable build with plenty of fast twitch and athleticism present. Primary shortstop with good hands and moves really well. Higher slot with excellent arm strength recorded up to 97 mph. Attacks the ball and surrounds well. Very good defensive actions with plus arm strength to back it up. Right-handed hitter with a slightly open stance and good extension through contact. Functional stroke with a middle of the field plan. Linear impact and hips work well into contact. Big upside in all facets. Great student. Verbal commitment to Oregon.

My eyes are on Jayden Hylton today. MLB lists him as the 114th ranked prospect. Well built and tall - 6'6", 220 lbs. BA .438, OBP .560. He's hit 4 HR and 5 triples against some of the best high schools in Florida, including Stoneman Douglass. Committed to Stetson, which doesn't seem like a school we can't entice him away from. MLB posted a very nice feature of Jayden and his family. Jayden Hylton's journey to the Draft (mlb.com)

Zebby Matthews: 95.2 IP, 122/21 K/BB - Competition aside, that's impressive.

Heck of a first full season for him as well. Could be a steal.

I don't know anything about him either. He was an ABCA NCAA Div. II First Team All-American along with two Minnesota kids - Sam Riola (SCSU) and Cam Kline (MN - Mankato).

Shoot ... I hoped Keegan would be there for us in the 5th round.

Not sure why we passed on Birdsell for Morris. Probably meant to save money for Priellipp.

Puzzling to me as well. If they do split the bonus 50/50, both wind up being pick 15. So perhaps that's exactly the deal Boras brokered. Makes sense for both players, especially if Porter was going to drop because of his perceived firm commitment to Clemson.
