Well I'm not upset, that's nice.

[HCC]

Love this pick. Love. Going for upside over drafting at best a #4 starter like Thompson. Draft upside not floor.

[SNESandMets]

Fangraphs had him as 8th best prospect on the board with a 45+ FV.

[zaknim]

I like it.

[MikeH]

Ehh. Ok. He better hit. He may. Cool.

[R Nitelight]

Wonder if they're going to save some money here.

That's not a complaint.

[stevereiff]

I don’t hate the pick.... I honestly thought they would have picked Rutledge with the pick.

[Dog]

So Nitey approves?

*fingers crossed*

Seems fine. Did anyone have him linked to us? I've probably learned more about him in the past five minutes than I had leading up to the draft...
