Ive been Following it. Some interesting picks. Kumar Rocker fell to the 10th pick (Mets). Sounds like he will be among the first to sign contract.
Twins drafted the hardest throwing guy in the draft. Chase Petty. Sounds to me like he fell that far because when you get a teenager throwing the ball 100 mph+. Well kind of setting yourself up for tommy john arm problems.

Shake n Bake. I wonder how his dinner with Machado and Tatis went? Rocker kept dropping, I was hoping one of my teams would have grabbed him. Of course he lands with the Mets, just what Brian needs another stud arm in his system.

How about LA Angels. Every 2021 draft pick is a pitcher.

A little bit of variety would have been nice.

Max Muncy's story is interesting. Oakland draft Max Muncy... again, after 9 years. Oakland has drafted two players named Max Muncy (in 2012 and in 2021) and they both have the same birthday (August 25, but 12 years apart). Curious (not George) coincidences.

If Oakland releases him, then he becomes an all star with the Dodgers, that will be creepy.

Rocker goes from being rumored as the first to sign to not signing at all.

I am so delighted (100% sarcasm). SO many guys sign who have already had TJ that year and are recovering. They should have been able to work something out. I am pretty disappointed.

Even if something came up on his checkup, sign him sit out for the year and hope he's ready to go for the start of next season. He's not going back to Vandy, he's pitching elsewhere, so he can't be too bad. What a wasted pick. Met's will pick at 11 next years draft because he didn't sign, maybe they'll be able to draft him again.
