i just don't think it's likely. Do you?
My take is that Nola is actually fairly close to MLB ready and he is very safe pick. May not ever be an ace, but could be a #2 pitcher with it being probable that he would be a #3.
If the Cubs think that Baez and Bryant are pretty close to being ready, it might be a good idea to pick up a guy like Nola who would only take a year or year and a half to get called up to the show so that he can join a team that would have a good offense with Bryant and Baez (and Olt, Rizzo, Castro)
I'm starting to feel like Nola wouldn't be a reach at #4.

I don't disagree with any of that, and while i'd encourage a safe pick like that i just don't think it's going to happen with a lot of really good pitchers (some due to injury) avalible in subsequent rounds. I expect the cubs to either address the lack of cactching in the system with pentecost or take gordon.

his rise has been steep and i certainly think he's top 10, just more towards the back of top 10.
but that's just weekend watcher (and lifting info from other people) predicting there i don't have any real guage on these things.
