Maybe somebody posted this already, but Law's top 100 for the
draft is out. 5 of first 6 are shortstops. Aiken and Nix
around 30. That's nice.

MLB Pipeline (Callis and Mayo) have a new top 30 international
signings ranking up now.
Cubs are favorites to land six of the 30:
Yonathan Perlaza-9
Younathan Sierra Estiwal-13
Aramis Ademan- 16
Anderson Amarista-17 (co-favorite with WSox)
Miguel Amaya-23
Christoper Martinez-26

Interesting that the Cubs could be losing another top signee to
the White Sox on this list in Anderson Amarista. Sierra is a
new name since McDaniel's article being attached to the Cubs.
McDaniel listed him in the other category of someone that might
get a million or less. This year seems to be much more fluid
than in the past.
If Amarista did sign with the White Sox that would be 3 players
this year that the Cubs were rumored to have deals with that
fell through. The other two would be Heredia (3) and Celestino
( 8 ). Those 2 would have made that list a lot more
interesting.

a list that includes guys named Yonathan Perlaza and Younathan
Sierra Estiwal (which sounds like the name of a Barcelona-based
dance club owner) is inherently interesting.

Kiley McDaniel with an interesting piece today regarding top of
the draft, mostly about DBacks looking toward substantial
savings via an underdraft of a guy who otherwise would not go in
top 7.
Also, Keith Law with a chat today. Law says Twins are focused
on Kolby Allard at #6 and White Sox in on on Tyler Jay at #8.
Law also says that Mike Matuella is a possibility for Cubs at #9
if his medicals check out as routine TJ rehab. Law basically
reaffirms McDaniel's comments regarding top of the draft.

Callis did a podcast where he talked about the DBacks as well.
Even if they went with the top talent like Rogers or Tate they
would only be looking at $6 million, by going way under slot
they could have $4 million to spend. I guess they could do a
lot of damage with that money if there is talent worthy of it
that falls. Callis also stated that Rogers wouldn't have gone
before #7 last year and Tate would have been more in the Nola,
Freeland class of prospects.

Tyler Stephenson was considered a 3rd round guy when we saw him
in March...his stock has obviously gone up quite a bit this
spring.
He is impressive to the eye, though...6'4, 210-ish, and the ball
jumps off his bat...pretty solid on the bump as well...
