I just don't like Vientos all that much. His stock is nowhere near what it was a year ago.

Yeah, not a fan really either. Would love to see Rooker, would fit awesomely in LF for us. Or your guy Waters if he's there of course.

[Enscheff]

Hopefully the Braves get a toolsy 45 FV HS kid at 41. Vientos would be fun to follow the next few years.

[Julio3000]

Such a great night so far. Hopefully we could use the childhood favorite angle to get him signed for cheaper than expected and can spend big at 41.

Has that ever actually happened?

[Enscheff]

I put Wright at 2:

Albies
Wright
Acuna
Maitan
Allard
Soroka

[Tapate50]

Any good catcher with potencial around 3 or 4 round?

Steven Williams

It's pretty easy to get the money if we need it, just have to draft a few college seniors in the 4-10 round range and pay them 10-25 K. I don't know why everyone acts like it's so hard to come up with money to pay overslot for the second pick. We could get over a mil by doing that with our 4th, 5th, and 6th picks, and I doubt it would take more than a mil overslot to sign anyone available at our second pick.

The obvious problem is that you lose out on some potentially real talent for 3 straight picks doing that. Not wise.

You would have Wright as one of the top 15 or so prospects in all of baseball?

And lulz on gondee not having Acuna in his top 6.

[UNCBlue012]

I'm so giddy right now. Wright is the guy I've wanted for a while.

Completely agree on Acuna. Not having in him the top 3 is crazy.

I would have Wright Top 20 on the low end of the 60 FV group

Soroka

Wow... I put acuna above wright and I thought maitan was the next best thing.

[zbhargrove]

Wow... I put acuna above wright and I thought maitan was the next best thing.

Kinda hard to go too crazy about a 17 year old who hasn't played any professional ball yet

[thethe]

Absolutely. This is awesome

They have to at some point pitch in the big leagues but you have to be happy with how many of these picks have been good so far.

[Heyward]

Acuna
Albies
Wright
Maitan
Soroka
Allard

My top 6

[Jay212033]

No Acuna smh!

[Jay212033]

Albies
Wright
Acuna
Maitan
Allard
Soroka

Absolutely this! Perfect rankings

[Jay212033]

Wow... I put acuna above wright and I thought maitan was the next best thing.

Maitan may be but he's yet to play a game and not much video to show so he's a huge lottery ticket right now

[Tapate50]

Has that ever actually happened?

Cmon bro, we are the Barves. People want to be here.
