Great follow around draft season: @Savermetrics. Recently these 3 tweets about high school guys hosted in Wrigley caught my eye. Last year, guys like Roederer and Franklin were brought in pre-draft, so this is valuable info to file away if you’re handicapping possible Cubs picks.

Particularly interesting to see Brennan Malone mentioned, as he’s usually mocked to be drafted before the Cubs pick (and McLeod and Co don’t generally draft HS pitching in the first round).

Mooney with article about a Chicago high school pitcher.  I'm really starting to think that a high school arm could be a real possibility in the first round.  Priester is usually mocked well before the Cubs pick.

Fangraphs most recent mock has the Cubs taking J.J. Goss, HS RHP out of Texas.  Malone, who the Cubs worked out at Wrigley goes the pick after.  Daniel Espino is another HS RHP who has a big fastball who could go around when the Cubs pick.  If Kody Hoese falls to around the Cubs he could be an option, Esptein was at his conference tourney.

Dave23:
College bats I hope the Cubs are considering, in no particular order...

Thomas Dillard - Ole Miss
Grae Kessinger - Ole Miss
Parker Phillips - Austin Peay

Deeg:
Just take a HS pitcher with a big arm.  This whole soft-tossing crafty college pitcher approach has failed miserably.
