Detroit?s ?magic number? for clinching the No. 1 pick in the 2020 MLB draft is down to one.

1-0 good guys heading to bottom 3, Norris' day is done, 3IP 5K 0 BB 2H 43 pitches, good day for him

With 6 games left we have a 5 game "lead" over Baltimore for the first overall pick. According to my quackulations that puts our magic number at 1. Another Detroit loss or Baltimore win, and it's all ours.

Ohh how the tides have turned.

It's too bad MLB isn't like the NFL or NBA where you can trade draft picks.

I think making the international guys go through the draft process would make things a lot more exciting. Today it comes down to $$$ and how much international money you are allotted, which I am not sure how all that works. Of course the international guys would hate it because today they are getting guaranteed money, but I think it would make things more fair.
 
2 - 1 twins 7th inning.

Twins and Yankees are close to 300 home runs on the year.

Kinda stop counting when it got to 3, felt like it was a shoe in.
 
Clinched the first pick! I prefer Hancock to Torkelson, but I (like Tiger brass) don’t know much.

I don't prefer either one honestly. Draft a position player without having to play 1B. Torkelson is not a good defensive player.

Austin Martin, a sophomore, has walked more than he struck out this year. Is great on defense and could play anywhere, even SS. Has speed to steal bases and developed HR power this year. At 6'0" and 170 lbs, he will mature more into his body in time.
