1984 Amateur Draft Discussion

I liked Knegt a lot. Was hoping he'd slide to 2.5. I almost took him at 15, but was scared off by my history with Dutch players.


BTW - Thoughts on Toselli? My two top scouts love his CON/AVOID K's and, unlike SISA, they have him with average power.

My scout average was 6/6/3/5/6. I was high on him. My head scout, 80 on hitting, had him 7/7/5/6/7.

My scouts didn't love him. Mostly 5/6/3/4/5 with a few seeing a bit higher. I heard from several people and it seems their scouts liked him better than mine. I can see the legitamacy of him as a top 15 pick though if all pans out and his Contact ends up at a 6.

My team needs a legit .300 hitter and I think he can be it. Time will tell.

Good day, Boys. Nice pace.

Bring on Opening Day!!!

Great pace...

But now we wait for Sully as he "pulls a Z."

[Clay]

In Sully's defense... or defence for the Canadian in the house... SIn City wasn't supposed to pick till 8-9p and Sully said he had softball anyway. Either way... we should get through Round 1 in a day(ish). That's pretty awesome.

Who's doing the 1st Round breakdown once it's complete?

Yeah, I actually thought we would be waiting on the SC pick for a bit. And lucky me, he takes the guy I was hoping to have all to #24.

I think it is pretty obvious that you are going to do it.

[Jake]

I think we should draft Sully a fullback.

Go for it homie!

My scouts all liked Toselli for his contact/gap power/K avoidance, but my two top hitting scouts were mixed, which scared me away a little. Now that he's gone I cant remember where he was on my list, but it was top 15.

Seems like I always end up picking MR's in the first round, but they are usually the highest rated by my scouts. Birley's got a 4 for endurance so I'm hoping I might turn him into a starter ala Jack Dryden.

[Pat]

Found my new favorite name in this draft class...

2B River Bass....was he mentioned before?

[Clay]

Yep

[Clay]

Three Hector's in the 1st so far. Funny.

I'm shopping 2.5 for a legit BLB starting pitcher. Can turn it into a bigger deal for the right one. PM me if you're looking for someone in the next 8 picks.
