2023 MLB Draft Mock Draft | Dylan Crews or Paul Skenes #1?

[@dorianb1877]

As a Pirates fan, I want anyone BUT CLARK. I’m tired of waiting for prospects for 4 years. I want a college player

[@StopTalking733]

you guys drafted henry davis and nick gonzales in back to back years..

[@chloewu2760]

@@StopTalking733both of them r drafted out of college , Clark just graduated from hs

[@Stutz_77]

Same here, Clark is someone that the buccos definitely don’t need. The pirates now are in a period where they are close to a breakthrough and need someone who will help them in the next couple of years and not what will probably be around 4 for Clark. I think they should either go Skenes or Langford.

[@dallasvsworld]

@Do_Not_Watch_My_Videoshis high school team around him was also absolutely trash

[@cameronglabb1422]

@@Stutz_77I feel we gotta go with Crews, can’t pass up a player that talented, a talent like him doesn’t come around that often, Skenes I wouldn’t mind but Crews is Fs the top choice, although pitching seems to need help, a bat like Crews’ in the lineup is necessary

[@caden1541]

[@marcmetivier2265]

As a Red Sox fan, I'd be thrilled with Kyle Teel at 14. I'm also realistic and know we'll take some 3rd round ranked 2B that we can sign underslot

[@colbygatlin1409]

As someone who played against Blake mitchel the past 2 years including this year he is a absolute stud. He can throw the ball from his knees and the shortstop doesn’t even have to move his glove. As a team we were scared to get a lead off on him. As a hitter you can’t play a shift on him because he can hit the ball all over the field and he can hit it where he wants too. Now as a base runner he was a pretty good base runner he was able to steal third base on our Cather who was hard to steal on. He was one of the faster players I have seen this year in our State championship run. He is a very humble player and gives credit to everyone else around him. Overall an absolute Stud

[@chloewu2760]

Skenes or crews should be the number one pick , wouldn’t mind Langford but if it’s Jenkins or Clark , then pirates fans should riot

[@isaiahdunham8208]

I’m not totally sold on the Blake Mitchell pick. With Ethan Salas already at single A as a 17 year old playing well, the organization has been very clear that he’s the catcher of the future. I don’t watch much tape though, so maybe Mitchell is just that good that you take him anyway

[@levicoker8937]

Max Clark for number 1

The rangers get Skenes or Crews at 4. I won't have words. A top10 payroll, current playoff team, young core...adding a generational player. Would be so lame for non ranger fans

[@Aviator43]

DYLAN AND PAUL , YESssss INDEED 👍🏽👍🏻

[@john670]

I think it is important to note that there isn't much of a gap between Langford and Crews. Some media outlets even have Langford ahead of Crews. More power, more speed, had a higher OPS than crews, and a lot of the underlying numbers like hard hit %, line drive rate, exit velocity, etc. favors Langford.

[@dwolf6732]

No way the Pirates pay for Crews

It makes no sense for the Mariners to invest that heavily into prep bats. The window to compete is open now and we already have enough young guys in the farm. Ms need near MLB ready bats now.

I really like Stafura for the Yankees although we have a lot of SS. I also wouldn’t mind Soto, Floyd Schanuel, White, or Peete but Stafura is my top choice

[@stephencross458]

[@arod2394]

You got the Kyle Teel spot on 👍

[@UnforgettablyLegit]

I don’t know if I necessarily agree with Blake Mitchell as the Padres pick. We just drafted Ethan Salas and Luis Campusano is still very young. We will see though.

[@JosephVallejo27]

I’m big on Arjun Nimmala

[@lukabearry1826]

Very high on him, had a class with him in high school! Smart as hell kid

[@TheKougar13]

The Padres do not have lots of money to spend in this draft because of the luxury tax and making the NLCS last year, so I could definitely see Preller and co drafting an underslot guy in the first to save some cash. Nabbing Ethan Salas in the international siginings was as good as a number one overall pick IMO

[@dhilanramgopal2723]

Eldridge needs to be higher

[@GiraffeNeckMarc]

i dont disagree but hes not mocking high on the board right now

[@steelcitysportsfan1436]

The pirates really need to take Skenes. He's the Ace pitcher they really need badly.

[@PurplePaperPrius]

Don't be surprised if teams reach for Teel and Mitchell. In a weak draft for catchers, those top 2 will be ever more valuable

[@mjhout]

Personally, I think Red Sox should draft pitching.. I don’t see them taking a catcher, but they will probably just take best available
