I think Brownβs bad knees with multiple extended IL stints were too much to overcome.

Schoolcraft is 6β 8β, 230 lbs. Already has good repeatability in his delivery. FB up to 97 with huge room to get stronger. Change ahead of breaking ball in development. Potential future #1 MLB SP.

There is almost no chance that Holliday or Hernandez will fall to the Giants at #13, but Schoolcraft will likely be still available. If so, heβs my pick.

To my non-professional eye, there are 3 players in this yearβs draft whose ceilings immediately stand out as potential for greatness: Ethan Holliday HS SS, Seth Hernandez HS RHP and Kruz Schoolcraft HS LHP.

Historically the Giants have had the most success in the MLB Amateur Draft with the demographic generally considered the riskiest: high school pitching. Examples include Matt Cain, Madison Bumgarner, Logan Webb and Kyle Harrison.

I am confident MLB and the court system in Virginia will due their due diligence investigating the social media allegations against Sean Hjelle and justice will be served. In the meantime I just think we need to leave Sean Hjelle alone and not try him in the Court of Social Media.

I did not vote for Donald Trump. Heβs an awful person and a worse President. The reason we are stuck with him is because millions of men feel their right to due process was taken away by the Me Too movement.

Maybe you are the one who needs to work on reading comprehension if you think throwing out the A word without any context is a credible allegation.

5 days? Itβs been longer than 5 days so apparently thatβs enough time for MLB to complete their investigation? Again, the fact they are letting him play is evidence MLB has not found anything credible in their prelim investigation.

Personally I did not find the post to be at all convincing that he did anything other than get caught up in baseballβs hook up culture which is not admirable but last I checked is not a crime or something you lose your job over.

He deserves the presumption of innocence until the investigation is complete and should be able to continue working as long as his employer feels he can do the job.

I would hope not! It sure sounds like youβve already convicted him if a crime in your mind.

So someone can just throw out the A word without a shred of evidence to back it up and that an automatic paid leave? He has a right to work until there is actually some evidence that this is a credible allegation.
