Tenacious D Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 Harris telling fans we’re in for a longer rebuild. Quote
lordstanley Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 Easy for Harris to be patient, he just got here. We on the other hand have been suffering for almost a decade. Quote

SoCalTiger Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 Defense and all all tool player wins out. We loose since it indicates long rebuild ahead. Quote

I guess I'll need to eat my words because I'm perfectly fine with Clark... This is a scouting/ upside play so it doesn't bother me that he'll have a longer path than Langford... Quote
jz68 Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 I'm guessing Clark being a left handed bat had something to do with taking him over Langford. Quote
RandyMarsh Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 I just hope it's cause they had Clark higher on their board and not because of some bullcrap signability thing where they try to manipulate money so they can get the 40th ranked player on their board with their 2nd pick instead of 45th. Quote
SoCalTiger Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 I’m ok with the pick for the record. One dimensional sluggers are cheaper on the free agent market. Quote

LongLiveMaroth Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 Well I will be interested if he signs below slot. They may be trying to float another prep bat to their comp pick. Even if that is the case would have preferred Langford. Quote
Tenacious D Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 I hope we’re saving a bit of money to apply elsewhere. Quote

Greene got the majors in only one more MilB season than Torkelson and a lot of folks say they should have waited longer with Tork. Edited July 9, 2023 by gehringer_2 4 Quote

MLB.com has both rated the same but Clark has better numbers for speed and fielding. Seems that Lanford's only advantage over Clark is in hitting power. 1 Quote

He was in the top five of nearly everybody's board and has crazy high upside. Not to mention is a pretty good ballplayer projected to stay in center. Sure Lankford seem like the more obvious pick but Clark has the ceiling of a Betts while Lankford is probably Andrew McCutheon. 1 Quote

Hongbit Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 Love this pick! Clark is a huge talent and only 18. Quote
SoCalTiger Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 G2 was on this early and his point of Greene better than Tork resounds loudly. Quote
