(Updated 8/2/2022) 2022 MLB Draft and Roster Management Discussion Thread

Pretty wild just how different the lineup is going to look next year. Guess that answers the question of who plays 2nd base though. Christian Moore can naturally slide in now if his defense is any good.

Congrats to Ortega! Sucks to lose our guys, but this just makes our brand even stronger.

7 Vols drafted in the first 6 rounds, the brand is hotter than a tea kettle!

Paul Bunyon (AKA Zach Maxwell) just got drafted. Will be interesting to see if that performance against us was a one-hit wonder.

 

[Weezer]

Jorel should come back just because the Twins suck.

 

[Weezer]

As a Braves fan, I still hold a grudge against Kirby Puckett and the Twins from 30 years ago.

Tells you what you need to know about the pecking order

So we are waiting on Lawson, Mark Mac, Stephenson? Hoping Luc, Evan, and Sewell can get selected.

That was a great World Series.

I thought it was reported that Stephenson plans on returning?

 

[Weezer]

That was a great World Series.

Until we lost...

 

[TheMookieMonster]

WOW. Seth in Round 7!?!

 

[Weezer]

Stephenson selected by Detroit.

Yes, plus commits such as Alex Stanwich and Chase Valentine

 

[Ryno14]

Seth just got taken by Detroit in the 7th. He’s gone

 

[fryeguy93]

Jorel will be a big leaguer

He was the heart of the Vol team down the stretch as Trey and Honcho cooled down.

I think he’s the guy who doesn’t hit his peak years until 24-25

 

[Ttucke11]

Wow, good for him. I kept telling everyone his tools stood out to scouts.

 

[Weezer]

I could have sworn there was a TV interview recently where he talked about Stephenson coming back? Maybe I dreamed it?

Suck it, Vandy!!!

 

[Volprofch05]

There will be a lot of turnover, but I'm down with at least two years of a team that includes Burns, Beam, Burke, Moore, hopefully Dickey, etc.

 

[Weezer]

If Stephenson goes, who is our CF next year?

 

[VolFanGBO]

any of our commits been selected?

 

[Ttucke11]

If Stephenson goes, who is our CF next year?

Booker, Scott, or Stanwich I'd guess.

 

[fryeguy93]

Angels have Zach Neto, Ben Joyce, Sonny D
