although, per Derrick Goold in this morning’s article……quote….The epicenter of uncertainty in the Cardinals’ system is in the middle infield.

the other side of the coin regarding this draft…..this from a recent top prospects article…“I think it’s one of the strongest classes as far as college arms, up and down,” a National League scouting director said. “There might be 15 college pitchers taken in the first round.

[THerr28]

I would think there is going to be a pretty good middle infielder available at 54.
use 21 on one of the upside college pitchers. JMO

[THerr28]

point taken bccran

[THerr28]

plenty of good arms:
Garrett Crochet
Bryce Jarvis
Tanner Burns (may be gone by 21)
Slade Cecconi
Cade Cavalli (my fav, most likely long gone by 21)
Carmen Mlodzinski
J T Ginn (altho’ Tommy John surgery just before Covid 19 happened)

or, just take Ed Howard if he’s still there.
for me, Howard over Foscue

[THerr28]

man, I don’t know about Foscue with many pitchers available, good ones, at 21.
Garrett Crochet (cro SHAY) of Tennessee is intriguing, altho some shoulder problem this spring.

per Kiley McDaniel of ESPN, college position players are the safest demographic.

is Foscue high floor, low ceiling? seems like it to me, but what do I know? 🙂

[THerr28]

thanks Brian.
can you divulge BA’s 5.0 Card pick?

[THerr28]

right you are.
and for those wanting Ed Howard, that mock has the Brewers taking him just one pick prior to the Cards

[THerr28]

yea, makes ZERO sense.
what in the wide world would the writer of that mock is thinking?

[THerr28]

BleacherReport with new mock supposedly only two hours old has us taking Tyler Soderstrom.
Good grief. Makes no sense. With Ivan Herrera ready to take Yadi’s spot in about 3 years, why draft a catcher?

[THerr28]

57 minutes ago BA with mock 5.0
I’m not a subscriber (used to be)
Brian, who does BA have for Cards in this newest mock?
Thanks.

[THerr28]

I’m hoping the next CBA will allow trading of draft picks.
Long overdue.
JMO

[THerr28]

[THerr28]

[THerr28]

Herr absolutely. Check my user name. 🙂

[THerr28]

[THerr28]

Starling Marte’s wife died of a heart attack. Sure you saw that. Very sad. RIP

[THerr28]

sorry, left and came back and too late to edit last one.
GIN as in the drink. or, JIN

[THerr28]

saw an interview. Mlodzinski is pronounced muh GIN skee

[THerr28]

noticed that Mudville.
I thought he’d go BEFORE 21 , not after.

[THerr28]

Mayo’s mew mock out today has us taking Carmen Mlodzinski.

https://www.mlb.com/news/2020-mlb-draft-first-round-mock-draft?t=mlb-pipeline-coverage

BTW, he has Soderstrom going 15 to the Phils. good. don’t want him available at 21

[THerr28]

LOL Brian: “I guess the last one out will shut off the lights”

[THerr28]

it’s THREE WEEKS FROM TODAY fellas and gals

[THerr28]

GameCard, he DID having us take Mlodzinski in his previous mock (two weeks ago).

[THerr28]

CBS’ Mike Axisa’s latest mock (out yesterday) has us taking a catcher? what?????

Pick: C Tyler Soderstrom, Turlock High School

BTW he had Cavalli going to the Phils at # 15

[THerr28]

I found this interview to be extremely interesting:
