This isn’t quite how I envisioned the draft going when I was dreaming of the Braves getting Abrams and Priester lol

I got nothing on this. I don’t see it. Maybe he can hit. He’s left handed. Maybe he grows into 6 “4. Maybe he doesn’t get out in his front foot and he hits for power.
I remember everyone hating soroka. I remember living allard.
So maybe this guy is good. I hate it now though
This place never disappoints. Lol
if nolan gorman were the pick last year we would’ve for sure heard whining from the usual suspects about how he projects to have major swing and moss issues.

I'm cool with the Langeliers pick but Shewmake gets a big fat WTF.
Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.
Can we fire Brown please and bring back Bridges? We seriously spent the 9th and 21st picks on two hitters that don't project as above average bats. Shea is all defense with limited offensive profile. Shewmake is full of intangibles but has little to no pop and only stole 6 bases this year. Definitely sounds like guys you should be pick in the first. Smh. What a disaster of a draft.

Braves main question when sitting down with prospects isn’t what their goals are, and how they can help their franchise, it’s how much below slot will you really take?
There's no way with the name Braden Shewmake that he could ever be a good MLB player.

Yeah i'm not sure about this one, seems like a utility player.
