    Would love for them to pick Naylor. I also liked Siani but his stock looks like it’s dropped and maybe he’ll even be available in the 2nd round. Would also like if McClanahan or Adams were still available.

    Naylor? I hardly know her.
    That'll be my only contribution to this thread.

    When do the Astros actually draft someone? Not mockery, but an actual draft?

    I'd say their first pick will probably fall around the 8:00 area.

    Did Harold Reynolds just say that he'd pick Kyler Murray #1 overall

    Hope so. I'm not looking forward to the complaints when he's not doing well in Tri-City or the GCL or wherever he starts off, though...

    HS or College?

    I'm guessing up the middle (P/C/2B/SS/CF).

    But I know nothing. I'd guess HS.

    If he has a good name, I like our chances.

    Keep in mind that Harold Reynolds also said he believes that Mark Appel could jump straight from college and into the Astros’ rotation right after being drafted.

    I keep hearing that they expect him to play football this fall. If Oakland gives him almost $5 million and lets him play QB, they are idiots.
