Tenacious D Posted July 18, 2022 Posted July 18, 2022 Normally I’d assume both guys would start in Lakeland, but we already have Pacheco, Santana and Sequeira at their positions. Might head straight to West Michigan. Quote

He can pitch in a pinch. The article says he's a quiet, professional guy. Nothing about any makeup concerns. Edited July 18, 2022 by Tigermojo Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted July 18, 2022 Posted July 18, 2022 Jackson Jobe Jace Jung Jumpin' Jesus........................ Quote
Cruzer1 Posted July 18, 2022 Posted July 18, 2022 I have heard that Jung is a better fielder than his brother. Probably a better all around player. Quote

Andre Lipcius is the only guy that comes to mind with more BB than K this season but he has hit for all that much power. Quote
Scottwood Posted July 18, 2022 Posted July 18, 2022 (edited) Jung and Graham are probably better thought of combined than Jobe and Pacheco were last year. Madden was an extra pick last year that we don't have this year and while the mainstream sites liked him, the more analytical boards were fairly sour on him. Madden's ERA looks good, but his peripheral stats this year are pedestrian. Assuming Avila is replaced, whoever they get to replace him should at least be happy with these 2 picks this year as a building block. The Tigers basically got two 1st round picks from a value standpoint. Edited July 18, 2022 by Scottwood Quote

Might head straight to West Michigan. I would agree with this. Pacheco probably shouldn't be pushed to WM quite yet and Santana and Sequeira haven't had sustained success in Lakeland. I am curious how this all works out with more MIF and playing time. I am guessing you will see an infield with Jung, Graham and Pacheco next year with Keith getting moved up to AA assuming he's healthy. Quote
Tenacious D Posted July 18, 2022 Posted July 18, 2022 Stocking up on infielders in the org: Toledo: Kreidler, Clemens Erie: Lipcius, W. Perez, Workman WM: Keith, T. Cruz Lakeland: Pacheco, Santana, Sequera TBA: Jung, Graham, TBD Quote

LongLiveMaroth Posted July 18, 2022 Posted July 18, 2022 I will say Graham looks like his frame could add on some muscle or weight in general . That being said he leverages the hell out of what he does have. https://www.espn.com/video/clip/_/id/34250081 Also not bad when both picks are BA 1st Team All Americans Quote

Tenacious D Posted July 18, 2022 Posted July 18, 2022 I’d like to see us draft Sonny Dichiara from Auburn at some point. Has a physique like John Goodman, but rakes and gets on base. Miggy’s heir at DH. Quote

RandyMarsh Posted July 18, 2022 Author Posted July 18, 2022 “He’s going to be a good second baseman,” Pleis said. “You can see his emotion and competitiveness on the field, and how he wants to win. He’s a gritty guy, his teammates love him, too." Yep those are definitely all the things you need to play a good second base. 1 1 Quote
