5 of the first 6 picks are pitchers huh..

Well, Everett should have some good pitching this coming year. Any chance that any of these guys go straight to WV? I would hope to God a first round college pitcher can skip short season A ball. They don't tend to skip with their 1st round college hitters. Unfortunately, Gilbert got Mono last year...

This is just ridiculous. In MLB you should never draft for need and here we are witnessing the Mariners do just that. Stop reaching for college pitchers!!!

The Kirby pick was fine. But what the hell are you doing at this point? Stop forcing it.

Totally agree. Insanity.

Yeah there is a mea culpa here, I read that wrong.

I can see how you read it wrong especially given how this org has spent more time patting itself on the back over the years than developing talent.

Ok I will just forgot about all of his slumps and only count the hot streaks.

Hey the M's are still 13-2!

Well Corbin Martin was also a college arm and a full 3 yrs older than Sam. It's only been 2 seasons lost for Sam's development and while he hasn't pitched he's been growing into his body, that development hasn't been slowed. Once he's able to pitch again he'll fly through the system. Yes, I am sure...
