I'm assuming he's asking for too much money to sign and no one wants to go that high... Popped by the Mariners at 55 right after I said that...

Arlington Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 2 hours ago, SoCalTiger said: True but most pitchers are right-handed and isn't right field easier to reach in Comerica ? I'd be happy with 9 lefty's. How often would hey see a left-handed pitcher? Some teams don't even have a LH starter and most have only 1 or 2 in the pen. Plus lefties get that extra step coming out of the batters box.

Plus lefties get that extra step coming out of the batters box. around about the Middle 70's the Tigers got really left handed. I remember I attended a game and IIRC it was 8 LH bats in the starting lineup - everybody but Veryzer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigermojo Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 (edited) Looking at the MLB grades would put Rainer #3, Hall #6 and Schiefelbein top 10 in the Tigers top 30. Yes of course I copy and pasted Schiefelbein...twice. Edited July 15 by Tigermojo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalTiger Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 1 hour ago, LongLiveMaroth said: Sounds like Rainer got overslot Is that why he slipped to us at 11 ? The Free Press article says he was the best prep shortstop in the draft. Is that so ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalTiger Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 1 hour ago, 1984Echoes said: Gotta buy him out of Vandy... Yes and will it be hard if we went overslept for Rainer ? Or do you think these were two guys they really really liked and will risk signing later in the draft ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hongbit Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 (edited) 7 hours ago, TigerNation said: They don't draft players without knowing what it'll take to sign them. NIL in college baseball is so new that’s it hard to predict what some of the SEC and ACC teams will do. Wouldn’t shock me to see some of these schools significantly up their offers to players after the draft. Edited July 15 by Hongbit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1984Echoes Posted July 15 Author Share Posted July 15 I love the movement on Hall's FB. Wiggins is on my radar for our pick at #85. Brassfield... No. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
