Yankees diehard. Minor leagues too. Giants, Knicks, Rangers.

@RJP_RAR @LeekNabers @RyanGarciaESM Young top 5-10 prospects are almost invaluable assets. Especially shortstops. The Yankees would have to be okay with expending many, many 10’s of millions of projected on field value to increase one season WS odds by a few percentage points. It’s bad business, plain and simple.
English
@williegandalf @LeekNabers @RyanGarciaESM It’s a good point but I guess my question was more about why they shouldn’t do that. But I would agree with you that it’s not a Yankees FO move to do that
English
And he's still good! But good ain't good enough when TARIK SKUBAL is available
Ryan@Hastyboii23
@RyanGarciaESM You’re the guy who had the biggest hard on for Warren. We don’t forget
English
@RJP_RAR @LeekNabers @RyanGarciaESM Find me an instance of a true top-10 blue chip prospect being traded for a pure rental at the deadline. It’s virtually never happened, and the Yankees FO aren’t going to be the first to do it.
English
@RyanGarciaESM Would you give Lombard? I’d be hesitant for only 3 months of skubal
English
@RyanGarciaESM Lombard + Warren is not an option if that’s the cost. No one employed in MLB would ever make that deal.

So elite baseball players having year-round access to top-level nutrition, strength and conditioning programs and baseball skill instruction is a bad thing because the point of those things is…winning games ? Truly insane take.

The purpose of MiLB is to develop talent and MLB’s proposal is offloading that task to colleges. Schools have an incentive to win, which intrinsically conflicts with player development. These proposed changes are counterproductive and only act as a way for owners to save money
English
@briancrice You were caught making up information and are now changing the goal posts.
English
@williegandalf And a system that has long needed adjustment is going to undergo adjustment. 96 high school players were drafted last year. MLB stats have 75% of drafted high school players from 2012-2019 didn’t advance to the major leagues. Correction in the system is needed.
English
@briancrice Dude are you serious. 615 players were drafted last year. Thats more than every roster spot of all 16 SEC teams combined. All P4 schools combined accounted for 43% of draftees. Mid-majors are absolutely not fully funding their entire roster.
English
@williegandalf No, I live in reality, where P4 schools are giving their entire roster full scholarships. If a school isn’t doing that, I would love to know, because that would be a great recruiting advantage for the other teams in their conference.
English
@briancrice @CoachTimOlson1 Yes top recruits are covered. But mid major senior-signs are abundant in the 13-20th rounds and the funding is absolutely not the same there.
English
@CoachTimOlson1 @williegandalf What schools? All 16 in the SEC are fully funded.
English
@williegandalf With the new NCAA roster limits and scholarship rules, every player is now on full scholarship.
English
English
@williegandalf @CreamRecruiter @TheBearJewUSA @MLB But let's be honest the guys going to mid majors aren't the guys getting drafted
English
Dear @MLB. Reducing the rounds to 12 is BS, and taking HS athletes OUT OF THE DRAFT is dead wrong. Why do Americans have to wait until 20 to sign but international guys can sign at 18. You are killing the American baseball dream and taking opportunities away from deserving kids

MLB's latest draft proposal would drastically reshape how amateur players become professionals. Vanderbilt's Tim Corbin reacts ⬇️
English
Not only am I convinced that this is not good for Major League Baseball, I’m not necessary certain it’s in the pure best interest of college baseball either.

Free at ESPN: An in-depth breakdown of MLB's latest CBA proposal. Banning high schoolers from the draft and implementing an international draft -- what it means, what the effects would be, where there could be compromise and what comes next in bargaining. espn.com/mlb/story/_/id…
English
@HaloLuke2002 @jjcoop36 Which is fine because it’s a critical dev level. $10,000 means two things: 1. It fills with Indy ball players and teams defund the infrastructure completely, or 2. NIL is oversaturated and late-round level players are forced to play pro baseball basicly for free.
English
@williegandalf @jjcoop36 Exactly. Low A is already pretty poor level of play
English
One of the other important points in the proposal:
MLB states that is has no intention of cutting the number of MiLB affiliates. It says it will not be seeking any reductions from the 120 current MiLB affiliates in its PDL negotiations with MiLB owners in 2030.
JJ Cooper@jjcoop36
Major League Baseball presented a proposal to the MLBPA today that would, if adopted, result in a sweeping change to all aspects of amateur talent acquisition. Among notable points: high school players would no longer be draft eligible. baseballamerica.com/stories/mlb-se…
English
@TortsIllustrtd CB is the pretext for cost-cutting. It’s a very open secret. They are trying to sell the competitive balance argument to the union any way possible and leverage that for a salary cap. I don’t think it will work and we’re heading for a very long lockout.
English
@Davelite93 @CreamRecruiter @TheBearJewUSA @MLB Minor league minimums and draft bonuses are more than what these guys will be getting from scholarships and NIL at mid-majors or even some top programs. They are expected to afford a college tuition because that’s the rule?
English
@CreamRecruiter @TheBearJewUSA @MLB "Less than 15%..." oh well let's look at what percent of HS kids get drafted and see of more HS kids end up getting NIL or good pro contracts...
English
@HornTakes @WallaceCreed24 Yes. Absolutely. This has always been the case.
English
@WallaceCreed24 Are we seriously pretending that playing Low and High A ball is 1. Better for a player’s development than playing for a major D1 program and 2. more attractive to HS players than playing for a major D1 program?
English
Have we considered the fact that maybe Griffin and McGonigle would rather just play pro ball than go to college and that is why college baseball is a good product?
Baseball America@BaseballAmerica
"Konnor Griffin would have been LSU's shortstop." "Kevin McGonigle would have anchored Auburn's infield." Under MLB's latest CBA proposal, college baseball would get an infusion of the top talent that currently signs straight out of high school. More from @jjcoop36 here: buff.ly/m6YOFld
