2017 BLB Amateur Draft Beginning Tuesday 06/28

Well that was a tough pick.

With the 3rd overall pick, the Toronto Canadians select 3B Jamie 'Superfly' Kitchen from the Heritage Eagles.

Superfly is showing an 8 in contact and 8 in avoid K's with my scout. He has a very high work ethic and maxed out speed. I'm going to take a chance here since he's not who I originally planned on drafting.

I think he can develop into a nice 3B as he has some decent fielding ratings.

Hopefully he will be the setting table for many years to come.

Top player on my board. The fact that his mother drives a magic school bus would have scared me off though.

Good reference.

Frizzell was the top player on my board.

I'll make my pick this evening PST.

KC selects SP Earl 'Blueprint' Frizzell. I went back and forth between Blueprint and Domino. Both had red flags, Frizzell with a serious injury and lower stamina, King with low work ethic and a questionable fastball. I ended up deciding on the player who's a little older and further along in his development.

Another prospect observation...

Rabbit Joey Maurer, a star pitcher from UCLA, has a really interesting history.

Despite being one of the best high school pitchers in 2012, he went undrafted out of high school and joined UCLA.

Now, years later, he's one of the top pitching prospects in this year's draft.

He's the first guy I've noticed go to college after being undrafted and turn into someone special.

Yeah, go ahead.

Really tough injury for top amateur prospect Malik Clark. One of the highest ranked pitchers in the draft class, he suffered a major elbow injury that will keep him out of action until the 2019 season, if the diagnosis is accurate.

With two selections in the top 15, I'm very much looking forward to this draft.
