[Fletcher] Angels get the #2 Pick

29 comments
  1. First time watching the draft lottery live, and that was a little nerve racking. Obviously would have loved #1 but 2nd overall pick is huge.

  2. I really thought we were gonna win #1 but what the hell. This is about the best alternative and we’re gonna get a really good player at 2 (I hope).

  3. Ethan Holliday should take a few years to develop as a HS player, so not too bummed that he’ll go to the Nats at #1. At least with the #2 we should get the most ready college bat/arm available, Perry should work his magic and rush him to the bigs.

  4. The Angels get their highest first-round pick in 30 years and ya’ll are whining like they dropped outside the top 5. Shits annoying.

  5. Angels fans should be happy. Had a chance to get #9 pick and they get 2nd overall. Jace Laviolette is going to be the pick and our future CF

  6. I still think we have a solid shot at Holliday falling to us. Nats have gone college last two drafts. Before that was Elijah Green and they may have second thoughts about drafting a high schooler after him. Sorry I may be on too much hopium

  7. As soon as it got to 9, I was celebrating every time our name didn’t come up. Obviously once it got to the top 2, you hope it goes to 1, but considering Miami and Colorado dropped, I’m more than happy with 2.

  8. No. 1 would have been nice but Holliday and LaViolette are both good options. Angels did pretty well with a big, 230 pound CF last decade. LaViolette may not be generational talent/Trout-level but even if he’s just in the ballpark of that caliber, that’s really, really good.
