And Grady didn't play for Akron because he'll be playing in the afternoon game tomorrow. Being cautious.
Outside of Chen, the Akron offense lacks a legit positional prospect.
I'd love to see them get a major position player prospect in this year's draft.
Aside from Jackie Bradley, I'm not sure there is one though. (Rendon not included, as he clearly is going top 2).
I've heard grumblings that Rendon may slip a few spots, just because the pitching talent is so great. Doubt he'd fall to 8, but he could slip to 5.
Too bad the Rays can't package together 3 of their 100000 first round picks to move up.
EDIT: There are quite a few legit hitting prospects. Bubba Starling, Levi Michael, Mikie Mahtook just to name a few.
Sizemore 2-4 in 5 plate appearances with an infield single, a standup double and a walk in Akron today. And Joe Smith pitches another scoreless inning of relief.
Any word on Kipnis or Weglarz? Or has the Clippers season even started yet?
Where are you hearing grumblings from on anything related to the college baseball draft?
Oh shoot, bring him up and lead him off now. :shifty:
