Given your post history, it's easy to figure out who you're referencing.

I would assume a lot of the negotiating is probably heating up right about now. Closing in on 10 days until the draft. I would assume most would do the negotiating up front to know if they will draft a guy or not then do the fine tune negotiating after the draft.

I would love to see a couple tweets fired off today particularly from Guidry and Neal about taking their names out lol

yea im not sure how it works anymore atleast first hand. I know i would feel really good if that mock draft i posted held true. no guidry in top 75, romero barely in top 60. Im being really selfish when i say that, but for LSU perspective, its very good thing.

I'm definitely still curious how Romero's mind frame is. I really think he can be a 1st round guy if he would bet on himself, but if he gets 2 mil then I don't see that happening.

Kaleb Applebey is pitching for the Portland Pickles in the West Coast League: LINK

He didn't get a ton of innings this spring, so this is good for his development. Only 3 IP over 2 appearances, but no walks. That's big even with the small sample size given the struggles he had in the spring.

I know he was hurt but I wonder what it was, nobody seems to be able to find out. I think he was highly regarded as a top juco guy before that injury. Hopefully he gets right.

Grant Taylor went 6 innings of shutout ball with 5 hits, no walks, 5 Ks last night facing 22 batters.

He's got 18/2 K/BB over 15 innings in 4 appearances in the Cape League so far.

He's making sure he doesn't get left out of the weekend starter conversation.

Jay/Meatball locked on to him as a bullpen arm too soon. He wasn't conditioned for it when they tried to extend him a month or so into the season, and I think he inevitably wore down. Hopefully they sort those things out this year.

I haven't searched for it, but there is a decent chance the game is up on YouTube. He faced some good competition. (I know it's the Cape and everyone is generally good, but still)

He's really good. He also comes from a good family, good student, etc.

Kaleb Applebey


Miltontiger over on 247 does a great job getting some interviews with a bunch of the baseball people. Site very much in the works but he's interviewed a lot of baseball players: Hover over the picture to see the link to who it's to

Here's his one with Kaleb Applebey earlier last month.

Of course when he posted that interview on the 247 board a lot of people asked about his status since he barely played last season. He was definitely not 100% and got shut down for a long while at one point then came back and tried a couple games but was not very effective and basically got shut down again. This summer he got healthy and was now ready to go per Milton and is able to pitch again so we can see what he has got in the summer league.

I know you're half-joking ccarrone0313, but man how bad would it suck to be a fan of a mid-major. JK rolled his eyes saying how he had heard stories of regional hosts putting out feelers to the best player on visiting teams. You heard that correctly, recruiting players in town playing on other teams as if it were a scouting trip. That is tampering on a level Saban would be proud of.

That's been happening since forever, it's just easier to make happen now.
