at the 7th pick would have like something less risky but then
the draft is always a risk

We bitch about not having pitching and then bitch about getting
the best college pitcher in the draft.

If the Cubs take another reliever round Kantrovitz should be
fired.
Kiley McDaniel linked them to Careen Whisenhunt in the second
round.
Horton has some really good slider and fastball traits.

Hard to believe they passed on Lee for Horton, honestly. An
intriguing talent but taking a two-pitch guy with a limited
track record of success considering the guys that were on the
board there seems like a reach.

We'll find out, but I don't think drafting in that spot was the
time to play that game. Lee seems like a no-brainer there. But
hey, maybe they were down on him for whatever reason. Collier?
Parada?
On the plus side, we're likely to have multiple chances at high
draft picks in the next few years.

Heh, even BN having trouble getting into their usual dlck-riding
mode over this pick. I'm sure by tomorrow Bert will have "come
around" and started calling it the steal of the draft.

Horton probably won't go much under slot, if at all, since he
has an extra year of eligibly left. But it's hard to imagine
the Cubs making this pick unless they thought they could get him
under slot. Very odd.
