That's a spoiler? I mentioned one name and asked a question. I'll duck out. Have at it. Not trying to spoil anything. Enjoy.

It's not, you're fine

Don’t lol that’s ridiculous just saying the team on the clock is not spoiling 

It was a false alarm. My bad.

Ike is still there!

Yes @Joseph Zarr you're fine! I misread your comment and thought you were spoiling Cunningham being picked. My apologies. 

[izzi]

lol Ike goes the pick before us 

[MilwaukeeBeers]

Board couldn’t fall much worse lol

[jw5511986]

Well seen LaViolette to us a bunch so let's see.

[nate82]

My guess here is Josh Hammond.

[wiguy94]

Did Baltimore buy Irish down? He was a pretty consensus Top 10 guy based on draft boards I saw.

[izzi]

At this point I would say we're gonna go slot money savings again, given how the board has fallen.

thankfully they're getting the commercials out of the way now lol

Yayayayay LOVE that pick!!!!!

[wallus]

We are cornering Andrews

[madbad2000]

Happy with that.  Will be even more happy if they worked out a deal.  At least one elite tool, check.  Hopefully he can stick at 3rd

There’s a power bat. Love the pick. Doesn’t chase. Great swing decisions. Super happy.

[patrickgpe]

Love the position, mlb network loves the pick, I’m Haley 

[TURBO]

BEAST!

I like it. Should be below slot, will probably be an OF.

[wiguy94]

Seems like an underslot pick a la Wilken in 2023?

[Joseph Zarr]

I am not as inspired by the pick. I think he translates as another 1B only guy. BUT, I'm not going to gripe. Plus hit tool. Big personality. Very adept in the clutch. Just don't think he has a chance at the hot corner. I personally feel he's under slot quite easily.

[James Zumstein]

I predicted Conrad and had Fischer as my alternate. Mad the Cubs took Conrad but am happy to have Fischer!

[wallus]

Have to assume he is a slot guy or close right?

[Mr Southpaw]

Good pick

More likely a 1B.

[izzi]

We need bats that can arrive quickly. Check.

[wallus]

Everyone is taking shortstops so we pivot to 3B/1B
