Mentioned this elsewhere, but Durbin Feltman is a guy I'd really love in round three. Obviously you don't draft for need, but he's a guy that could move up into the bullpen really quickly (dare I say even this year?), and for a team that figures to contend in the foreseeable future, having a cost-controlled bullpen piece would be really valuable.

unlikely, but I'd love to see Blaine Knight slip all the way down to #100. Feltman would also be nice.
ETA, oh well.
ETA II, Woot!

Some names to watch out for today:
Mike Siani (6/1 workout at Fenway - UVA commit - signability issues) Luke Bartnicki (6/1 workout at Fenway - Georgia Tech commit) Mitchell Parker (met with Red Sox reps - Tennessee commit) Brady Allen (interest from Red Sox - South Carolina commit) Sean Guilbe (private workout - Tennessee commit) Kody Clemens (met with Red Sox)

Today is my draft day. I had softball all day yesterday and missed most of the fun. Hopefully we get some quality depth because we certainly need it. Not going to get my hopes up, but Knight would be a coup at 100 (my only fear is that teams are concerned about his durability and this is why he is dropping a bit).

Love our first two picks. Really wanted some bats, we already have a lot of low ceiling arms in the system.

Geez, from reading that, Tampa looks like they did quite well. Especially if Libaratore goes close to slot.

Glad to see red sox take a bat in the first round, but now I'm ready for a pitcher this round.

I just hope that they take their shot sooner and then get easy sign picks than to make easy sign picks now and snag someone later.

Something to watch for today. Hoping the Red Sox stay away.

Imagine working for the Orioles and being told you can't utilize IFA to obtain talent but you can draft a convicted child molester to obtain talent.

I will say, I'm fine with the picks yesterday although a little surprised we picked from the same demographic. That said, I'm hoping neither picks are over slot. Always hard to predict though.

Would really like Aaron Hernandez from A&M CC today, he's a high upside college SP. Feltman for obvious reasons, and Steve Ginergy from Texas Tech. Had TJ in Feb, but like his pitch-ability and change up might be the best in the draft, might be able to get him for an underslot deal somewhere.

Rocker seems set to go to Vanderbilt although it looks to me like the Cubs are saving some money...wouldn’t be surprised if they took him in 10th and were able to throw some money at him with some other high bonus types behind him in case he doesn’t bite.
Drew Rasmussen is interesting to me as a potential underslot type with his injury history and being a senior...not sure if he has a a red shirt option or anything with his medical history. If he doesn’t have options and came quite a bit underslot he could be an interesting pen arm at this point if he saved money for someone else

The Mets just drafted another Carlos Cortes. I'm confused.

Seems like Draft Tracker hasn't updated a single pick yet. Am I missing something?

You have to click to Round 3.

You have to click to Round 3. Still nothing on my end. When I click on "Current Round" it still shows Round 2C. And Round 3 is blank.

I'm guessing it just doesn't refresh on its own here. I'm on my work computer whereas last night I was on my home computer. My bad y'all.
