Good
morning.
Please
find below for your perusal the latest ten mocks, which includes a few players
that have been moving up the charts as we get closer to the June draft.
Some
are –
LHP Joey
Wentz – The Shawnee Mission East (KS) High School senior blasted on the
mock scene about nine mocks ago and is now projected as a solid first round
pick. How did he work his way on to the mock drafts? Well, he threw the first
26 innings this season without giving up a hit.
OF Brandon
Marsh – The Buford (GA) High School outfielder has had his name
mentioned in the past two mocks after the Houston Astros featured him as one of
the players they are tracking for toe 2016 draft.
LHP Braxton
Garrett – The Florence (AL) High School senior has been on all mock
drafts throughout the mock season, but he has consistently moved into a top 15
pick in the draft. In fact, two of the last five mock drafts had him in the top
10. MaxPreps lists a 2016 stat line of 62.1-IP, 125-K, 0.56-ERA.
"I can't wait until Draft
day, because it's going to start the next mile marker in my career. Once I get
there, I just hope to stay there as long as I can, [give] my brothers a great
foundation, send them to school. I want to put my parents up in a new house,
because they've busted their tails to get me where I am. To me, it'll mean the
world to me, because I'll know all the hard work paid off."
Mack – No chance this kid’s
going to college.
D1 Baseball draft guru, Frankie Piliere
had some thoughts on the draft during a rare non-subscriber Q and A –
Q - Who’s
going #1
F.P. - I still say it’s Puk
and that’s what scouts continue to tell me. Braves will have a lot of good
choices around with Groome, Pint, Ray all in the mix
Q - Let’s say Puk goes 1. How
locked in do you think the Reds are on Kyle Lewis?
F.P. - They’ve kicked the
tires on Delvin Perez but I think Lewis is their
guy.
Q - Austin
Bergner winds up at UNC, right? Not looking like he’ll get drafted high
enough to forgo college?
F.P. - If I were putting money
on it, that would be my bet, that he ends up at school.
Q - What are your thoughts on
FAU’s 6’4″ shortstop CJ Chatham? What round do you think he could go in?
F.P. - Big fan of Chatham. And
scouts have told me to place him around the 2nd round for my list purposes. I
think there are a couple teams who like him in the comp round though. Rangy,
athletic SS and the bat has really improved.
(BTW... David Hood's mock draft on 5-19 is the first time C.J. was mentioned this year, projected as the 96th pick in the draft)

I'd love another Cespedes. Can we draft one?
TJ Rivera 20 for last 37, .375, 40 RBI. WHAT's a guy gotta do?
Shoutout to C.J. Chatham and FAU baseball for clinching the conference usa title on the very last day !!!!
Hear you. If we remove Reynolds from the 40 man roster and add TJ Rivera does that make Reynolds a free agent? I don't know how it works........... Bring out the hammer Thor!
He would be placed on waivers and can get claimed by another team.. But if he passes through waivers he can be placed back down in Vegas.
But he, or anybody else DFA'd, if claimed would have to be added to the claimant's 40-man. Correct, Zo?
Oh yes that as well
Thanks, Zo--
So the risk to making room for, say, TJR, is whether a Reynolds, Campbell, Alvarez, etc., would fit on some body else's 40 man
BTW, TJR last night: 3/5 (.375), 2B (11), RBI (40)
Thanks guys. Would like to see TJR get a look
With our 2B/SS starters healthy and Wilmer due back soon, all TJ would get here are splinters. Let him play every day until needed.
