A brief glimpse at your post history reveals how much of miserable moron you are.

While I will give you that his stock has dropped due to his lack of power, this is just nonsense. He was likely still going to get picked inside of the Top 5 rounds.

He was number 10 at one point and may still be on one, but he's top 30-50 on many other boards. Huge pull either way.

Lmao he is a plus defender with very good speed and instincts along with really good contact skills with the bat. Yes he does lack power but this is straight up blasphemy. This kid was still going to get picked fairly early.

Can you actually withdraw your name from the MLB draft? I thought any eligible player was fair game to get drafted.

There are documents you can fill out to completely get your name removed, but most of the time that doesn’t happen. Curiel is enrolling at the start of LSU’s 2nd summer module which behinds before the draft so I doubt he pulls one of those moves while actively taking classes

I don't understand the hype behind this kid. Will be great if he goes to LSU and produces, but his stats sure seem average. He definitely isn't hitting for power.

Not trying to bash the kid, I honestly would like to know why he is ranked so high and caught so many "eyes" as articles have claimed. He just doesn't look the part to me.

Caminiti - no shot

Schmidt - always a chance. There’s at least love for LSU there

That comes with physical maturity and strength. Very few kids look like Bear Jones at 18 years old.

He’s ranked that high for a reason baw. Don’t hurt your brain trying to figure it out if you don’t get it lol.

Kling got the text first. Now let's hope Curiel can have a MONSTER (wink wink) type freshman season

What is the reason? It should be pretty simple to define and not require brain injuries if you know.
