Allard's injury isn't serious.

It's a back issue of some sorts. It's worrisome without a doubt. You can't do anything with a back issue. So it may be a minor injury, but your back is the most important part of a human body. So it's serious.

If the Braves think they've got a blue chip pitching prospect at 14, then they should absolutely take him. This thing about needs when drafting high school kids is absurd. You have to take the blue chipper, imo.

I'd take another Chipper regardless of the color

Bridges: "what were the Braves built on? Pitching. And that's where we want to continue to go"

Braves picked high school left-handed pitcher Kolby Allard with the No. 14 overall pick in the 2015 draft.

It can be argued that Allard has the highest ceiling among high school pitchers despite the fact he missed most of the spring due to a back injury. The 5-foot-11 southpaw features premium stuff, headlined by a mid-90s fastball, plus curveball and a relatively advanced changeup. Furthermore, the 17-year-old has an effortless delivery and already commands his stuff well. The UCLA commit appeared in only five games this spring for San Clemente HS (Calif.), striking out nine batters over seven scoreless innings. The recommended slot value for the No. 14 overall pick is $2,842,400.

Ding ding ding ding ding! We have a winner! You don't draft for need in MLB you take the BPA on your board
 
Should be an easy sign as well. Could be a great plan if we draft Daz at 28. Draft the hard sign at 28 and that way if he signs you get 2 guys that you likely couldn't get otherwise.
