Tyler Jay pick number 1?
A college reliever that's no sure bet to successfully move into
a starting rotation.
Only makes some sense if he's willing to sign with the D-Backs
for $3+ million under the slot value with plans to use that
savings to sign lower picks for over slot. Even then that's
huge g@mble with the overall #1 pick.

Jay's the hot name. Very good stuff, deception, fresh arm. In a
draft like this there are probably a dozen players that could go
#1.

I understand all of that but it's a BIG, BIG g@mble with the
overall #1 pick. If Jay fails as a starting pitcher the
D-Backs's FO will receive much more criticism than if they draft
more of a 'sure bet' like Swanson and he fails.

Andrew Benintendi was 0-2 tonight in Arkansas' 10-0 loss to
Florida in a slaughter rule shortened 7-inning game. Benintendi
lined to shortstop, stuck out swinging and walked & then stole
second base in his final plate appearance. With the loss
Arkansas was eliminated from the SEC Baseball Tournament.

According to McDaniel Theo was in Oregon to see the UCLA pitcher
that starts with K. Less upside, more polish is what I tend to
get out of his scouting report. According to McDaniel the Cubs
aren't the only top 10 team looking at him.

Yes. Coming from a guy with a tough last name, some of these
pitchers.
