hrubes20 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Dammit, did I ever miss Kiley at Fangraphs. They've got some J2 stuff up already. Yankees are predictably landing the biggest fish, and he looks freaking awesome. Jasson Dominguez, a Dominican OF. A's are picking up Robert Puason, the studly Dominican SS prospect that got the Braves in so much trouble for negotiating with when he was 14. Both of these guys are expected to get $5 million. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/updated-july-2-prospect-rankings/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominguez's swing has so much load on his back foot in that video it's crazy. I'm sure he's really good, but it goes to show you those guys are building swings for the 5 minute youtube clip and not for games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE DUKE Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I'm interested to see how International Free Agency starts to play out now with the hard cap and everyone except the Braves out of the penalty box. Do the Buscones still control the process and direct their players to specific teams, or can any team really swoop in now with more money since 2-3 teams can't just go nuts and sign 5-8 high priced guys each?

THE DUKE Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 The College baseball season starts today! http://warrennolan.com/baseball/2019/scores-live?type=Top 25 Couple of good matchups right out of the gate with TCU taking on CS Fullerton, Vanderbilt taking on Virginia, and Florida against Long Beach State Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devils1854 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Not going to toot their horn too much yet, especially sin Scott Stricklin can screw up anything, but Cole Wilcox and Emerson Hancock are both Georgia Bulldogs that are ranked 1 and 2 on the 2020 draft board for fangraphs right now. We will see what we have with Wilcox. He was a sure fire first rounder in June before saying he was going to Athens. He will be the midweek starter to start the season. Hancock was pretty good at times as a freshman last year, and is pounding the zone at 97 so far today in the opener through three innings. His curve has looked pretty good so far.
