I was told Gabe Speier is the ultimate weapon.

2026 shortstop Jacob Lombard is one hell of a scouting experience.

I spent an inordinate amount of time scouting, studying and analyzing every granular detail of his profile this week.

It's a confounding nitroglycerin profile. Where do I begin...

Jacob Lombard is a polarizing experience

Gulliver Prep shortstop Jacob Lombard has generational tools. But there's more than meets the eye.

💎MOCK DRAFT 1.0 HAS ARRIVED💎

The 2025 season has ended for nearly two-thirds of the league. MLB Draft lottery odds have been set.

What does the first round of the 2026 MLB Draft look like?

2026 MLB Mock Draft 1.0

Will Roch Cholowsky be the No. 1 pick in the draft? How high will Grady Emerson and Jacob Lombard hear their names called?

From a sequencing, command and pitchability perspective, that Stephen Kolek start is among the best I’ve seen this season.

Perhaps the most physically, athletically gifted player in the entire 2026 class, Jackson Prep SS/OF Kevin Roberts Jr. is a star.

But he’s always been told what he can, can’t, and should do. And he loves silencing the critics.

He’s carving his own path.

Two weeks to go.

Here are the odds to land the No. 1 pick in the 2026 Draft.

Pittsburgh, Minnesota and Atlanta are all limping to the finish line.

The entire division has hit an iceberg.

The Seattle Mariners and its fans are going through it right now. Yikes.

One of my biggest pet peeves in baseball is “you could argue they should have won that game too” to reinforce hot streaks.

That would imply we should be including “you could argue they should have lost that game” as well.

Plenty of wins in hot streaks are won by strokes of luck too.
