    It's early days but I think he is looking like our best pick in the 2019 draft. What's happened so far has reinforced my view that we had a mediocre first day but really outstanding second and third days in this past draft.

    Of the HS players taken in 2019 I'm guessing Harris, Grissom, Backstrom and Owens will spend most of 2020 in Rome.

    We will find out soon enough how much water your "expert" suspicion of more informed opinions actually is.

    Until then, please continue adding zero content of any value to the board.

    Why don't you find something to do besides harassing others?

    I don't know if they allow spectators during instructional league practices, but I'm guessing if we could watch them, we would have a better chance of guessing where folks will end up in 2020. I think that's a decent list, but I want to see more of Backstrom.

    Fellas, I hate to break it to you, but other than maybe Backstrom and Grissom, none of these guys have the names to be star MLB players.

    Stalker? You're in my last 10 visitors list every single time I look without exception. It's not hard to figure out what you're doing there.

    I think the best baseball name we drafted in 2019 was 27th rounder RHP Indigo Diaz. He will make the hitters blue.

    I can’t imagine that being a list that refreshes very often. I am sure I could look today and still show up 6 months later.

    Garmel, Enscheff is just saying that you have a lot in common with the Metropolitans. That’s a compliment. Be more like the Metropolitans.

    If it's changing constantly that means folks are constantly accessing that page for reasons other than trying to look up something about you. I know I have accidentally gone into SouthCrack's page numerous times trying to click on a thread title only to accidentally touch his name on my phone.

    Go ahead and continue to make the majority of your posts about me though. The stalking doesn't rally bother me, but please clean up all the kleenex wads I keep finding in my bushes.

    LOL! Yeah, sure. Sounds like you're the one stalking me.

    Oh that's right, I have to click on your page to come up with my stats about how often you post about me.

    FYI...you've posted about me in 83% of your posts this year.

    Creepy...
