    Hey Mike long time no see! As a Cubs' fan, these two weren't even on the teams' radar for anything more than bullpen depth or trade fodder. Thanks for Willi, he's great insurance for an injury, lefthanded pitching, or in case Shaw turns into a pumpkin again. A little info on Armstrong and Gallagher from BA: Armstrong, 24, ranked 30th in the Cubs system and is a rotation depth starter in the making. He’s an innings eater with below-average stuff. Armstrong throws six different pitch shapes. Armstrong has two fastball variations, a slider, a curveball, a sweeper, a cutter and a changeup. He sits just 92-94 mph without much defined movement on either of his fastballs but he’s shows good command of his pitch mix and the ability to locate his slider consistently. A native of Granite Bay, California, the 23-year-old Gallagher committed to UC Santa Barbara and played three seasons for the Gauchos. After winning Big West freshman pitcher of the year honors in 2022, he missed all of 2023 after having Tommy John surgery. He returned in 2024 to win Big West pitcher of the year before he was selected by the Cubs in the sixth round of the 2024 draft. Gallagher made his professional debut with High-A South Bend to begin the season and was recently promoted to Double-A. Gallagher is a tall strike-thrower with a four-pitch mix and below-average power on his pitches. His above-average changeup is his go-to secondary and gives him a pitch that can generate whiffs when needed. Gallagher has rotation depth upside with a changeup he could fill a No.5 starter role with added velocity.

    Yep won't be shocked to see Balazovic or Duran subbed in instead if this is the hang up.

    Well the Cubs are draft a pitcher philosophy of late (especially this draft so far), but very little to show for it in the system. So buying and trading for SP is vital, of course it doesn't help when you trade Eloy Jimenez and Dylan Cease for Quintana, and spend heavy on Chatwood and Darvish. If the Twins can keep drafting and finding those OF and SS it makes trading them so much easier.

    As a Cubs fan, some offices are just better at finding and developing offensive players than pitchers. As far as drafting a college SS, it means little, often they'll transition to 2B/3B/CF

    If the Twins two top picks reach their power potential, you're talking 30 homers each

    I thought the same exact thing!! I'm a big fan of Carroll and Malone but I've seen them in person at the WWBA.
  24. Bob Sacamento
    Personally, I would have gone with Carroll at this point but the power potential of Cavaco is very tempting and he's one of those guys with all the tools in the world...
