Well I’ll be the first to admit I haven’t personally scouted Susac in person. I’m just saying based off of everything I’ve seen and read from what is out there Susac is not the profile of a player I would want the Reds to target in the first round.Originally Posted by Bourgeois Zee

Mock draft from MLB.COM
https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-mock-draft-june-22-2022
Interesting speculation about the Reds using their large bonus allotment to take Young at 18 and Lesko at 32.

I would be elated with Lesko at 32
Go BLUE!!!
I would also. Young and Lesko seem to be the names coming up most often in mocks.
I would be happy if they get Lesko at 18
Perfect Game has a video in which they select. If you have the time, good discussions of some of the top prospects. Spoiler alert: They have the Reds picking Susac.

Past big picks at #18 include:
Willie Wilson
Sonny Gray
R.A. Dickey (although I don't know if that counts, as he sucked until he figured out the knuckleball)
Corey Seager
And the Reds have picked one guy at 18 before:
Jack Armstrong
Jack Armstrong - Awesome believe it or not fact of the 1990 World Series team. He was the 1990 All-Star game starter and Cy Young Award front runner at the break. I think he was like 12-2 and I don’t think he won a game the rest of the season In fact I don’t think he even pitched in the post season
It thought he got a relief appearance.
3 innings of shutout baseball in the World Series against Oakland, giving up 1 hit and striking out 3.

My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!

Why not get creative and pick Jocelyn Alo with the last pick in the draft?

I know there are the medical concerns, but it’s be awfully hard for me to pass up Rocker. Especially for a team wanting to build an internal pitching pipeline.

Drew Gilbert, anyone? Seems to have one of the most MLB-ready bats. Fiery lil guy, too.
Arise and walk, come through. A world beyond that door is calling out for you. Arise and walk, come through. It's calling out for you.

IF Rocker is available when the Reds pick at 18, I hope they take him

Word is that he's close to being major league ready. Imagine the rotation in 2024.
Your imagination is a powerful weapon. Make sure you know when you're using it.
