serious doubts he’ll drop to 21 but that would be nice.
I think a lot of us wouldn’t mind seeing that.

[THerr28]

“Top 100 Prospects” on MLB Network right now.
It will be repeated a couple of times tonight and Saturday morning

[THerr28]

yes Cards are wont to highly value guys who hit well in Cape Cod.
still thinking college pitcher at 21 an hitter at 54

[THerr28]

regionality, probably:

[THerr28]

a few teams have only four picks.
at least we have seven.
seven VERY IMPORTANT decisions

[THerr28]

someone “falling” to the Cards would be great, as long as the fall is not because of injury

[THerr28]

also I guess BA has new mock out today with us taking Nick Loftin.
at least they didn’t say Foscue for the third straight BA mock

[THerr28]

did you see my post about Chris McMahon?
nobody commented.
comments?
thoughts?
good stuff with lots of movement per youtubes I saw

[THerr28]

Keith Law new mock today.
Has us taking Miami rhP Chris McMahon

[THerr28]

He’s # 111 on that list that GC linked

[THerr28]

interesting name LACardFan.
24 out of 26 SB as a soph.

new mock

https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/2020-mlb-mock-draft-tigers-hold-steady-at-no-1-high-school-outfielder-jumps-into-top-five/

Ed Howard, with Cavalli still on the board

whew

[THerr28]

grenadier1, thanks so much

[THerr28]

LOL
GameCard, bccran and me.
where is everyone else?
where is BlackHillsCard who started the thread?
I know from another forum that BHC knows his stuff.
chime in folks.
(or not)

[THerr28]

I wonder if Jordan Walker might fall to #54.
That would be nice.
Tough sign though is what I read.

[THerr28]

well, that would be great
really would

[THerr28]

so…bccran…is Foscue your choice if you had a choice?

[THerr28]

sooner or later Brian will chime in (hopefully).

Brian, do you or one of your writers do a mock?
If so, how many and when?

🙂

thanks.

[THerr28]

thanks for the link GC.
actually that’s the same list where I got Foscue being #32.

He is about 3 inches taller and 20 lbs heavier than Wong but that still is “smallish”.
If I’m drafting a smallish 2b he’d better be fast
He is not. 40 rating for speed.

A) this draft is heavy on quality college starting pitching
B) that fits hand and glove with what the Cards like to do more often than not.

So…..it would surprise me if a college starting pitcher were not picked….UNLESS….someone “falls to them”.

JMO

[THerr28]

Foscue is #32 on the top prospects list of 100.
They rate him as follows on the 20-80 scale:

Hit 50
Field 50
Power 50
Arm 50
Run 40
Overall 50

[THerr28]

RH bat
not nearly as fast
some issues fielding
bat is his tool
(from what I’ve read)

so I’d say he’s unlike Wong
(again, this from reading descriptions and viewing youtube)

[THerr28]

yes bccran it’s very unlikely Cavalli will be anything but lone gone by 21, but one can hope. 🙂

I’ll add Foscue to that list of three that I would not be thrilled with.

June 10th cannot get here fast enough. 🙂

[THerr28]

I’m with you GameCard.
One of those two or Ed Howard.
Certainly not Soderstrom.

[THerr28]

My choice would be Cade Cavalli, starting college righty.
Draft him an SIGN him.
Not like his dad.
Cards drafted his dad Brian in the 50th round in 1989.
He did not sign. Went to Oklahoma U instead.

[THerr28]

good review.
thanks Grenadier
