2018 Amateur Draft

[SFGRTB]

Thank you for not fucking this up for us, Detroit. Now the Giants can just fuck up on their own accord.

 

[SFGRTB]

Joey Bart it is

 

[GiantsPackersChamps2011]

Yayyyy

 

[SFGRTB]

Bart could be a quick mover, possibly end of 2019/2020. Very advanced defensively

Don't really understand drafting a catcher. Seems like Bart could get to the majors quickly, but Posey will still be there. Pitching and power hitting seem like bigger needs both in the short term, and in the long term. That being said, I don't really know much about the players in this draft. Too busy to follow it closely.

In MLB, you don't draft for needs, you draft whoever you think is the best guy

I get that, maybe he is head and shoulders above the next couple guys.

 

[SFGRTB]

On Fangraphs, Bart would rank around 61 on their top-100 prospects board

Damn you, Dwight Clark.

I was listening to KNBR waiting for updates, and they are just talking about Clark. I didn’t think the draft started until 5...

 

[calsnowskier]

So I assume Bart becomes our new #1 with Ramos dropping to #2.

So we now have 2 legit blue chippers in the system...

I was just thinking about this. Then add in Marco Luciano and the Giants have a 1-2-3 that is looking very nice

 

[SFGRTB]

Padres passing on Liberatore and Stewart to go with Ryan Weathers.... I approve.

 

[SFGRTB]

Meanwhile the Braves just get richer on the pitching side with Stewart. They have a dynasty brewing

 

[SFGRTB]

Liberatore and Gorman are free-falling

 

[SFGRTB]

Tampa or Kansas City probably swoop up Liberatore before the Giants at 45, but man if he's there hopefully the Giants jump all over that.

 

[SFGRTB]

 

[SFGRTB]

Aaaaand Tampa goes with Liberatore

 

[calsnowskier]

Huge steal.

I was also bummed to see Winn go @ 15. I had a mini fantasy about him dropping to 45. Now I am kinda hoping for a cool Beer at 45.
