12:16

2017 Live Draft Coverage with Eric Longenhagen and Chris Mitchell

by
June 12, 2017

Keith Law will unfortunately not be able to join Eric tonight, as previously announced. Chris Mitchell will be replacing him as Eric’s co-host.

Tonight, the MLB draft begins at 7 pm eastern. Lead prospect analyst Eric Longenhagen will be covering the first round as it happens, via Google Hangout, and he’ll also be joined by Chris Mitchell. Together, they’ll discuss the first 27 picks, and when possible, take questions from you guys as well.

To help facilitate the conversation, we’re going to have a Jotcast queue open for you guys to submit questions, and they’ll pick from that queue and answer them as they can. As they’ll be answering the questions on video, this isn’t a traditional chat, but they’ll hopefully have time to answer some of your queries in between selections.

Bookmark this post for your live draft coverage with Eric and Keith tonight, and we’ll have the Google Hangout embedded in this post when they go live right before the draft begins.

Ola Velund: Is there a team where the potential health-related Canning fall ends?

Eric A Longenhagen: late 20s, still ines up well vs other college arms

Dave: How likely are the A’s to take Hiura at 6 if he’s there? How much could they really save with an uderslot with him?

Mark: How much can minor league overall rankings change in one draft? How many spots could the Twins and Reds rise, or the Cards fall?

Jeff Sullivan: Hello friends
9:08
Jeff Sullivan: Welcome to Friday baseball chat
9:08
Jeff Sullivan: Sorry for that delay, was finishing a podcast
9:08
Jeff Sullivan: FanGraphs looks different now. I wonder if there are opinions
9:08
Dodgers: Do the Dodgers make a big splash this summer?
9:09
Jeff Sullivan: I’m not anticipating one, but I suppose it could in part come down to where they are with Hill and Wood. Just generally I continue to figure they’ll make the B- and C-tier moves, around their own flexibility

ChiSox: What can the White Sox offer to the Cubs for Jaimer Candelario?

2:00
Tom: Would you trade Machado for Bellinger and Rosario in a dynasty?
