Draft Day Open Thread

Stay connected for news and updates

The first part of the draft is tonight! Coverage begins on MLB Network and MLB.com at 6 p.m. with a preview show, and the draft itself gets underway at 7 p.m., also on MLB Network and MLB.com. MLB.com's Draft Central is a pretty good place to follow the draft, and FanGraphs will be live blogging the draft as well.

The Orioles will only make one pick tonight, #4 overall. I'll be updating this page through the first round so please stick around the chat about your opinions on the player picked by the Orioles and other teams. As a primer, read the following by our personal draft blogger, James F:

And With the Fourth Pick...Deja Vu All Over Again

Should the Orioles Select a College Pitcher?

And With the Fourth Pick...Kevin Glausman, RHP, LSU

And With the Fourth Pick...Draft Day!

Also, be sure to check back at 8:30 p.m. as your esteemed blogger Eat More Esskay will be live blogging a media conference call with Orioles Scouting Director Gary Rasjich as he talks about whoever it is the Orioles take first and other draft-related topics.
