Strasburg was a WS MVP for a championship team. That alone makes the pick validated.

I’d still want Skenes personally

Unpopular opinion. I love skenes. But can he land that sweeping slider for a strike in the MLB’s tight strike zone? Bc MLB hitters will pick it up and lay off. And they will barrel up 100mph.

The batting average on middle middle fastballs at 102 or higher is .000

And the SEC zone was smaller than the MLB zone this year.

I didn’t say it wasn’t. I was just saying taking a pitcher is a risk mainly for the Pirates who likely will not be in a position to win the World Series in the few years he’d be there. Still, I would take Skenes if I were probably 30 or 31 of the 32 teams. And I may take him if I were all 32. I just think the Pirates are somewhat unique in the fact that they have a loyal fan base that hasn’t sniffed the playoffs in 30 years and may be desperate just to make it. I think Crews is more likely to help them get there while Skenes would be more likely to help them win it. But I’d understand if they go with any of the top 3.

The is a perfect example of the rant at its finest. Twist everything into being a fact that THEY want to believe.

If Christian Little gets drafted this year the MLB is in worst shape than anyone would think.
There are hundreds of highschool pitchers that would put him to shame...dude isn't good!

What? Why would I want to believe he’s not 5’11”? How in the world would that benefit me?

Man Langford looks so awkward with the bat in his hands before swinging. Still, hard to argue with the results.

Without the purple and gold glasses on, idk how you take Langford over Skenes or Crews unless it’s strictly about money.
