The season is upon us, even if spring is not.

2018 MLB Draft Picks
#18
#33 - Compensation (Eric Hosmer)
#34 - Compensation (Lorenzo Cain)
#40 (Competitive Balance Round A)

018 Draft Names to Watch

RHP Kumar Rocker, N Oconnee HS, Georgia.
Spoiler!

OF Jarred Kelenic, Waukasha West HS, WI
Spoiler!

1B Triston Casas, American Heritage HS (FL).
Spoiler!

RHP Carter Stewart, Eau de Gallie HS (Ga).
Spoiler!

ANY Any, Any (Any). Any current top projected pick who slides for injury concerns. Includes current top prospect prospect SP Brady Singer, U of Florida.

Current Prospects to Watch:

OF Seuly Matias - Huge tools. Hit 2 HR in Lexington (A) season opener.

1B Nick Pratto - Top pick in 17 has advanced approach and good glove; needs to start tapping into power in first full year in minors. Also at Lexington.

OF Michael Gigliotti - Good defender in CF, good OBP skills, plus baserunner. Next mainstay in CF for KC, IMO. Advanced college bat also starting at Lexington.

OF Khalil Lee - Probably has highest upside in Royals' system. Could hit 30 HR in majors, could steal 30 bases. Plus defensive ability in RF. Nice test at Wilmington this year.

3B Emmanuel Rivera - Really nice approach and good contact skills. Power is still developing. Also getting a good test at Wilmington.

SP Foster Griffin - Made nice strides in 2017. Needs to continue to progress in 2018. Could be a lefty version of Jakob Junis (good breaking ball that he can really manipulate, OK fastball, good command).

1B Samir Duenez - Duenez still is intriguing, hoping for a step forward in his power production this year at Northwest Arkansas, which would turn him into a legit prospect.

Others to keep an eye on:
SP Gerson Garabito (Wilmington), OF Marten Gasparini (Lexington), C MJ Melendez (Lexington), RP Tyler Zuber (lexington), RP Richard Lovelady (Omaha), SP Dan Tillo (Lexington), SS Nicky Lopez (NWA), SP Scott Blewett (NWA), OF Brewer Hicklen (Idaho Falls),

In general, Lexington and Wilmington are the most interesting spots to watch. Nice depth and a lot of interesting pieces at both.

Do the YMCA dance until the camera focuses on you, so we know it's really you.

Nah, I’m starting the wave.

Lots of Royals fans here, BTW.

Are you saying we should flip to the game? Are we losing (again)?

Edit: Who's on the bump for us? Asking for a friend...

Duffy on the bump. We are losing 2-1. I would not recommend watching on TV.

:-) A show about the Air Force's Spooky is on the Smithsonian channel, I'd hate to miss it for (another) loss..

Just took a 3-2 lead, but you know how this will turn out. Gunships are more exciting.

I'm not always an Air Force fan, but the Wart Hogs and Spookies are hard not to be in awe of.

Another night, another fitting way to end a game in painful fashion.

Why can't we be so lucky to have an illegal immigrant murder and dump you into a cornfield?

We gained 1/2 game on the idle O's.

The funny thing is you know whether we take first or second worst - we'll pick some shlub and the Orioles will pick another Machado/Sale. Then we'll commiserate about it for the next decade.

But we'll always have 14/15 and no one can take that away. Right Steve Young?
