Summary
Segment 1 – News and Notes
1.We had games this weekend.
a.Any takeaways?
2.Last week, it was hamate bones. This week, UCL tears hit
a.Pablo Lopez – is out for the season with TJS. Who gets his starts?
b.Jordan Westburg – has a partially torn UCL to go along with his oblique. He’s on a PRP injection program (Ugh).
i.Do you put him on your DND list?
3.The Cardinals signed Ramon Urias to a one-year deal. It’s likely as a backup, but it also puts pressure on JJ Wetherholt to hit.
a.We are seeing a number of these “small, pressure signs” this year.
4.Gerrit Cole faced batters in a bullpen session on Saturday and reportedly looked good, hitting 97 to 98 on the radar gun.
a.I know there’s risk, but it is Gerrit Cole. I grabbed him in the 19th round and I’m very happy about that. Your thoughts?
5.The Guardians sign Rhys Hoskins to a minor league deal as insurance for Kayfus and Manzardo. However, if somebody slips, he should get some playing time.
a.Interested?
Segment 2 – Finish up with pitchers – We left off at 51.
1.How are you approaching this position for your upcoming drafts?
a.Covered last week
2.We will break down the top 60 in detail. Then, go through the next 30 in less detail. We will end by jumping around the remaining ranked players.
3.Which player not in the Top 15 has a chance to emerge there next season?
4.Which Top 15 player will not be there next season?
5.Give me a couple of sleepers
6.Give me one, maybe two guys you are just going to avoid drafting?
