Yikes, Harvey sounds like a moron. "I've never been a real fan of college, or education in general." At least cover up the fact that you're an idiot so you have leverage to ask for slot. Jeez, kid.
Wilson would be a great pick too. Once you get him away from the Stanford coaches, his power will probably come back. Hopefully they didn't mess up his swing too badly.
There you go, Stanek falls to the Yankees. All of the other guys that were discussed as possibilities are still there too like Jagielo, Denney, Kaminsky.
I'm aware, it would be pretty risky for the Yankees to take Manaea. He would blow a huge chunk of your allotment. He makes more sense for the Royals because they have more money to spend.
You're better off signing international prospects for shortstop. The position is so weak, anyone with any talent goes off the board early in a draft atmosphere.
Ball? He's not a college guy without leverage, but he was expected to sign for slot at 10-15 so he should go below slot at 7. At the very least, he should be a slam dunk to sign for slot money at 7.
Ball's a high upside guy and he should be an under slot guy at 7. He's not a guy I'm crazy about because it's going to be a while before we know if he'll turn out to be anything useful, but it makes sense.
