Minor League Ball MOD Athletics #2


I’m leaning prep pitcher at 10 for the moment, but only if it’s Taillon or Whitson (and maybe Covey or Cole, but right now, no).

DISCUSSION QUESTION: Who are your top five prep pitchers, which of them would you take at #10, and why?

Otherwise I’m looking for the best bat. With the depth available in the prep pitching ranks I think this is a good draft to grab a few high school arms in later rounds, leaving some of the better bats for that first pick.

DISCUSSION QUESTION #2: Who are your top ten hitters? Why?

Poll
What way are you leaning for the A's #1 pick (10th overall)?

Hello and welcome to the first A's MOD of 2010. I know there's a multitude of devoted A's fans here, and I plan to rely on you heavily to devise a draft plan for the community mock. I'm excited to be involved this year after several years when I had no time to do anything but lurk. Let's get started...
