    TT *was* ranked #10 in the latest NCAA rankings. I think he's good.

    The quote you posted said he was turning 21 in June. Do you expect me to do research or something?
    The television crews left and about 10 reporters remained in the room. That's when Price took his turn doing the talking.
    What followed was a five-minute, 34-second expletive-filled tirade. The final tally was 77 uses of the "F" word or a variant and 11 uses of a vulgar term for feces (two bovine, one equine).

    Re: 2019 Draft Class

    Latest MLB.com mock from Jim Callis (posted on Friday) pretty much repeats what we've heard which is that the Reds would like one of the top 6 hitters (Rutschman, Witt, Abrams, Vaughn, Bleday, Greene) but will likely take Lodolo if they're all gone.
    “I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”

    They seem to like Lodolo more than Stott.

    Defensible, but wrong, IMO.

    Re: 2019 Draft Class

    CBS sports mock reported earlier today. same, same. There seems to be a consensus developing around the first 7 picks. Again, Reds would take any of the top 6 position players if available. Lodolo is the backup plan and likely pick. Picks 3-6 vary among mocks, but consist of the same 4 players in different orders.

    Bleday finally does not have more Ks than BBs (all tied up at 45). He also has 25 bombs which is incredible given 214 ABs. I still prefer Lodolo over Bleday, but they may be in the same tier.

    This is interesting...

    MLB Pipeline
    @MLBPipeline

    Last year's No. 8 #MLBDraft pick, Carter Stewart, has agreed to a deal with Fukuoka of the Japanese Pacific League, per @MLBNetwork's @Ken_Rosenthal. #Braves didn't sign Stewart last year due to a wrist injury. He's #59 on our Top 100 Draft Prospects list: http://atmlb.com/2AWTiDE

    Jim Callis
    @jimcallisMLB

    No exact details on the deal yet, but source confirms that the total value would place Stewart in the upper half of the first round of the 2019 @MLBDraft (based on assigned pick value). Where exactly Stewart would have gone in the Draft was murky. My best guess: second round.
