It’s all but a given Mize is going #1 overall, right?

Sounds like it.

I saw a dude from BA say that he was hearing from sources that Mize could end up #3, but he was going to have to see it to believe it

How much scrilla does the #1 overall pick in baseball get?

Have y’all won a game yet?

Have y’all won a game yet?

Yes. In all stars now. 1st tournament this weekend in Eclectic

Rocker's son was not drafted in the first round (before the compensation picks and still on the board). Kind of surprising.

Does this mean Mize gets a statue?

Will place it next to Galloway’s IMO.

Golloway would’ve gotten Mize drafted higher

I always respected Glavine. I remember in the 90’s thinking this guy has such poise and elite control. Now he’s sending sentimental Tweets to college students using text abbreviations and weird ass spacing. Guess Allen Greene used up all the emojis.

That’s probably not true. And you know it.

Not that it really affects the Boogs too much, but I hope that QB from Oklahoma that was drafted #9 skips football and heads straight to the MLB

Didn't we see him back when he was at TAMU? He looked like he was about 5'10 or so and 175 lbs.

He claims the A’s are okay with him playing football this year.

Color me skeptical as teams aren’t usually too keen on their #9 overall picks risking knee injuries and the like

Word is he took less money than the slotted value to compromise with A's. Now they have more money to use on later draft picks

Correct.

 

[ALLTIGER85]

Yes. Their starter wasn’t playing well or got hurt and he played like crap against the Boogs. Got passed over and was looking to challenge to be the starter but Sumlin and his parents didn’t agree on something and he transferred. Quick little fugger and his future is def baseball.

Day 2 is about to start

Rounds 3-10

Probably the biggest day that will/could impact Auburn baseball for the 2019 season (good or bad).

Crap. Rivera drafted with 2nd pick of 4th round. $528.2K slot.

I feel like with one year at Auburn, that number could jump a lot, but not sure if he will pass that up

Everybody has a different situation but that’s tough to walk away from.

Too risky to me to walk away. Always run the risk of being terrible in the year at AU for some reason, and losing your only chance at that money

You're discounting the fact that most college athletes have a Rice-like love for the Auburn Family that trumps monetary considerations.

Quality AWOTG post right here.
