We hold Liveblogs for Sunday Night Baseball, so obviously we’re going to have one for the MLB Draft tonight.  So if you have absolutely nothing to do but watch the draft–which I’m guessing is the case if you’re reading this–then come hang out and gush about prospects with us.  Mevs from Diamond Hoggers will be there like always, and the same goes for those goofy bastards over at Off-Base Percentage.  The Sombrero should have our own prospect guru, Dee, stopping by, too.  If we play our cards right, maybe we can get Dylan Bundy to drop by to punch something.

Jonathan Mayo, MLB.com: With a smooth delivery, Bradley shows a plus fastball at times, but sits around 90-92 mph. He throws a curve and a slider, and commands the ball fairly well. At 6-foot-3, 210 pounds, he’s got the build and projectability that scouts love.

Nathan Rode, Baseball America: Bradley stands about 6-foot-4, 210 pounds. Scouts love his frame and the projection it oozes. He works with a fastball that gets up to 95-96 mph. He also throws a knuckle-curve and is working on improving a circle changeup.

John Sickels, Minorleagueball.com: Rated a likely first-rounder pre-season and still does. Has football leverage since he’s a great quarterback, too. Athletic, mid-90s fastball, good breaking ball, reasonable level of polish for a young power pitcher, competitive makeup. Would be a top ten guy in a thinner class and might still get there.

Dee Clark, The Golden Sombrero: Bradley might be the most well-known member of this year’s draft class due to his success on the football field as well as the baseball field.  Even though his fastball velocity and breaking ball sharpness have been down a little this spring compared to where they were toward the end of the summer, he will still go inside the first 20 picks.
