Trying to predict the first round of an MLB draft is hard. Trying to predict the second round or beyond? Crazy.
Eh, we’re crazy. We’re all crazy. Just deal with it and move on.
Much of the Giants’ strategy in the offseason was to not give away a draft pick by signing one of the free agents who would demand draft pick compensation. This year, the draft pick that would have been lost would have been their second round pick, #45 overall. Second round picks can still be very valuable. Trevor Story and Jed Lowrie were #45 overall picks.
