Very interested in what life will be like if the MLB changes the rule about HS players being eligible like they proposed

Caught a Braves podcast the other day, and the 2 guys on said that Curiel was one of the few names they were hearing as options for them at 9. Neither liked the middle of the 1st round after pick 6 or 7, but did like the back half.

Apparently the middle of the 1st is relatively weak. Which makes it kind of unpredictable. So Curiel probably does go somewhere in that 8-20 range.

Can’t make myself pull for him to fall, but of all the guys on both lists (save for Curiel and Brown), I think Sheerin coming back would have the biggest impact on the 2027 team. I realize chances are slim to none, though.

I’m wondering how long it takes to get to a pick where a guy gets full slot.
