bro lets get it baby
Great content man! I really enjoyed this video!
Haven't watched the video yet, but wasn't Kris Bryant in this class? I'll have to take watch this, because the title surprises me.
Great video! I remember all the hype for Appel but baseball can be extremely difficult going pro.
Great video
Mark Appel still got to do what almost every boy who plays baseball has dreamed of. Play in front of a 40,000 sold out crowd for at least a minute. You are the center of attention for a few minutes as you finally get to play in a major league baseball game. Sure his career didn't last long, but he got to live it for every second it lasted. he got his first ever mlb strikeout as well so thats an accomplishment in its own right.
No idea why he would say that Appel was the biggest bust ever, given the 3 picks that never made the bigs....and I lived thru it, the hype around Appel was weak compared to that around Brien Taylor, that would be my pick for biggest bust of the 1st overall's(although I don't remember when Chilcott was drafted, so can't compare)
I doubt his dream was to be a bust
@@stevehardman4686
Chilcott blew out his arm, which is an occupational hazard. Barfights aren't.
“40,000 sold out crowd” maybe in your dreams lol
I’m glad that Mark Appel didn’t sign with the Pirates and he was a bust for another team lol. I was mad about that at the time but then when I thought about it, I said what God doesn’t want to be in the major leagues immediately if he’s really that good answer that should’ve been the first red flag and then I wondered about the Pirates process for even drafting him.
The draft being that bad was obviously Bud Selig's fault.
It all goes back to Selig
:Insert Charlie day meme here:
Most things are
He needed to get those boys some roids
Everything is Selig's fault. Even when it happens in other sports
every time I picked Kohl Stewart in the Rule 5 draft in the show franchise mode he would actually become a solid rotation piece. Here’s hoping he can make that a reality.
It’s so weird there’s zero news on him besides the mlb.com transactions page. I have no idea if he’s even pitching anymore
I just want to say God bless Mark Appel that guy has taken more crap than any kid in their early 20's should have to take and he fought his way back and by God he made it to the show. No one can ever take that from him
Are you born-again?
I was at the Phillies game earlier this year where they gave Appel his NL championship ring. It was awesome to see. Really happy he made it to the show.
The Appel story is a cool one, that Rockies contract makes you forget how unreal Kris Bryant was
Kris Bryant 2015-2019 was a legit top 20 player in the game. He’s still a very productive player when healthy. He just can’t stay on the field. It hurts to watch
Love the smile on Bryant's face as he reads the grounder and makes the throw to win the World Series. That moment alone almost redeems this draft class.
Almost.
That smile is what every Little Leaguer dreams of. Final out in a WS.
As a Cubs fan, him slipping after he threw made me instantly think that ball was gonna soar over Rizzo's head or bounce in the dirt.
@@Hummus4X I mean cause it's the Cubs, so why wouldn't it. 🤷
That's my favorite moment on video as a lifelong Cubs fan. It always makes tears come to my eyes.
@@Hummus4X Had the throw gone into the dirt, Rizzo would have caught it. The man is a human vacuum cleaner.
I’m a life long cubs fan. When they drafted Bryant I told my buddies this man will take us to a worlds series. He did I remember crying when they said Cubs win Cubs win. 33 years of waiting was well worth it.
Indians fan that shit hurt.
@@Saydopeyt it should. Hahahaha
Surprisingly inspiring ending, didn’t see it coming. I honestly forgot Appel was part of that Giles trade which also just worked out so well for the Astros. You know for all the talk about what a genius Luhnow was, he missed A LOT more than people remember.
I am biased but I have never been more certain I was watching a rookie that would become a hall of famer than kris bryant, sad to see his career falling apart :(
He was special
Phil Bickford threw a one hit shutout against my high school team senior year for our CIF championship game , he was sitting 94-97mph the whole game it was insane. Idk how his school was even in our division I went to El Rancho in Pico Rivera and he went to Oaks Christian a private school with hand picked players so it was nice to see him give up that homer to Pujols for his 600th lol
I still think the Yankees did Frazier dirty with his development, but ultimately he just lost it at the plate and in the field. He started out awful in the field, then suddenly looked great for a while, then lost it again.
I ALWAYS appreciate your music selection and making sure to credit them as well, fantastic video!
Glad you enjoyed!
I loved Frasiers bat and bat speed as a Yankees fan. The problem is anytime he heated up he got hurt and then when he came back he either got hurt again or just couldn't catch fly balls. It was ALWAYS something with him, and then all of his nonsense off the field where he couldn't shut the fuck up to the media. He did have and still does have a ton of talent but I'm certain the time has passed for him. His bat speed was insane. He could catch up to fastballs up in the zone when most guys would be late at that point. Sad story all around.
Just watching those highlights you can see how ridiculous his bat speed is. Those are some of the quickest hands I’ve ever seen
After watching a video like this it makes you appreciate any player that’s able to stay in the bigs for an extended period of time. The MLB draft will always be the biggest crapshoot. You can never know what’s gonna happen with these guys as they develop no matter how great they are when they’re younger
I will be honest, looking at those highlights of Appel's cup of coffee in the MLB, I can see why the Astros were so high on him. Not every pitcher has a sharp late-breaking slider or a 97 mph sinker.
If he was moved to the pen earlier in his career, I think he would’ve been a solid reliever. He didn’t have the durability or command to start, but the stuff was there
@@AndThatsBaseballalso, he didn’t have the ability to handle independence that most players outside of stanford had. they’re known as the “coddled” bunch lol
@@stimihendrix3404what do you mean?
@@towl222that even with the insane signing bonus, he likely couldnt handle the grind through the minors. Which is honestly fair if you've injuries and struggles to meet expectations, it really wears on your focus as a pitcher.
@@AndThatsBaseball Absolutely. There are some Matt Brash comps there.
Learning about Frazier’s concussion symptoms makes me feel for the guy. It’s not fun at all
I'm not american, but went to US in 2017 and watched a Brewers x Yankees game in person. Clint Frazier hit a bomb and his swing impressed me. Thought he would be a star at that point.
I’ll always believe the Yankees fucked with his development
I was at the game when Bryant hit that 495 footer. I know it's not really possible but I swear it looked like the ball was still going up when it hit the scoreboard. Sad to see how much injuries have affected him.
There’s differing readings on that homer. Statcast’s updated reading has it at like 450, and I definitely think it looked farther than that. Never seen one that high off the scoreboard at Wrigley
@@AndThatsBaseballI think schwarber hit one on top of the scoreboard, but that might’ve been the other one in right
I never knew Mark Appels story and I 100% am proud of that man for what he did. It takes a lot of courage and resilience to make it back to the big leagues after all that he went through. I’m glad he at least got that $6million and I hope he’s still doing well these days. That is an incredible story he has and it could be made into a great movie. Mad respect for that man!
Hunter Dozier keeps the metric system down, he rigs every Oscar night, he keeps Martians under wraps. Is he a stonecutter? Nice music choice
We do! We do!
Bryant and Rendon are both examples of what an elite player does as a free agent whos already won a WS. They go to some perennial non factor team to coast out and collect over 150,000 USD a game.
Pretty good gig if you can get it
150k for playing 2-3 hours of baseball? Sign me up lol
good there ruining there bodies for the sport might as well get paid well to do it
Rendon was an incredible player with the Nats. He's had a ton of injuries since.
Plus you know you'll always start your off season early. October is a nice month to have off. Cooling down but not yet winter
Appel being able to step away and comeback and make a major league roster is insane to me
It’s a crazy accomplishment. You have to be truly gifted. See Josh Hamilton and Rick Ankiel.
I'm very glad I stayed to the end. Wonderful way to finish.
Dope music throughout. Loved the video
great video man! i watch a lot of baseball content, really well done man!
As an Astros fan, NEVER bring up Mark Appel’s name around them. Or more recently, Forrest Whitley’s. Still really happy the Phillies gave him a start though, and I hope he can do more in the future.
Oh boo hoo you’ve only won twice since drafting him
@@AndThatsBaseball😂😂😂 Yeah, they can be petty sometimes. Honestly, it would have gone a lot worse had we not made some small but excellent pitching acquisitions for the first time (and also Justin Verlander), and made a massive international push the second time. Arizona now has our pitching coach, and I expect them to reap the benefits of his masterwork.
mark appel almost singlehandedly ruined it for all future stanford draft picks lmao. that’s how bad it was, and this is coming from a convo i had with a bunch of scouts😭
he retired sadly. great guy
tyler ivey too
I've been barely patiently waiting for this video!
Hope it exceeded expectations
Great vid. Clint Frazier completely saddens me though.
Watching the high school footage it was very clear that he was special. Damn concussion ruined everything.
@@AndThatsBaseball Agreed, he had all the skill needed to be an all star. Bat speed, pop, and a solid enough eye.
Your videos are well researched, nicely paced, and entertaining. Thanks. Subscribed.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
You did good putting Appel at the end. Good job.
Jon Gray was a beast at OU. When he faced Aaron Nola and LSU in Game 1 of the Super Regionals, that was one of the best-pitched games I’ve ever seen in all my years watching LSU baseball. Surpassed only by Rhett Lowder vs Paul Skenes in Omaha two weeks ago.
Something about 2013 was bad for draft classes across the board.😂
Subscribed. Thanks for the well crafted content.
Glad you enjoyed!
Phil Bickford is at least memorable in a Mike Basick sort of way for giving yo Albert’s 700 homer
True
First time here. Nice job! I'm impressed, And That's Baseball. Good luck.
One of the better MLB draft analyses I’ve seen.
Great job!
Never did ask, but how did you come up with your channel’s name?
I had a video ready to go and needed some branding real quick. My dad actually came up with it based on John Sterling’s phrase, “that’s baseball, Suzyn”
@@AndThatsBaseballDidn’t know he says that.
Interesting catchphrase
That song from the stonecutters on 'The Simpsons' 😂
Great informative video, I was wondering where Clint Frazier was!
He was special 😞
@@AndThatsBaseball He really was 🥲
Kris Bryant might not have been the best player in this draft, but he coulda probably gone 0-for-1000 for the Cubs after 2016 and still woulda never had to buy his own drink in Chicago again from that 2016 MVP season of his.
As a Phillies fan, when Mark made his debut last year, I knew nothing about him. But he was pretty solid for us in his few outings. Unfortunate he was on the IR before the playoffs. Makes you wonder if he could have had his moment at some point during the WS run.
Would’ve loved it if he was available to pitch against the Houston Asterisks
@@pizzle58 why so he could get beat up in front of a thousand fans, 2 time champs time to deal with it
@@pizzle58
The hate against the Astros is foolish
I know it's not 2013 draft related, but as a tigers fan I really hope Meadows works out for us. Not least of which because i liked Paredes.
Rooting for Austin Meadows to get on-track, for his sake and as a Tigers fan. 🐅
As someone with absolutely insane anxiety it's amazing that Meadows was even able to do as well as he was. I literally have trouble breathing sometimes. There are times i can't make myself answer the phone because im convinced its someone calling to say a family member is dead (And no, nothing like that has ever happened before, so idk where it comes from). And it used to be basically constant, until I was given xanax and then thc, and I don't think he could have the latter at all right? And hed need an exemption for the xanax. And both would obviously dull reflexes
You have some good taste in music!
As a Cubs fan it's sad to see how much KBs power has diminished.
love the beck instrumental in the background
No matter what happens to Phil Bickford in the rest of his career, he'll always have a place in history for giving up Pujols' 700th homer
I graduated high school 2012 and went to Stephen F Austin and I remember taking ground balls with Hunter Dozier n being around him on the field at practice in the fall . He was so much better than every one else . He looked like a man playing with boys . He was humble n nice . Sucks it didn’t work out for him in the league . Just shows how crazy good mlb players are . Good thing is he got paid with that contract
Tim Anderson was from this class and aside from this current season he has been pretty good 2x all star and a silver slugger award
Makes me think of that scene from Moneyball when Billy told his scout: “I’ve been at those kitchen tables with you telling kids and parents, ‘when I know, I know’… and you don’t.”
It’s really odd that the 2013 Draft in the 3 major US sports were all terrible. I wonder what was going on in 1993/4/5 with athletic parents.
Clint Frazier was that dude in high school coming out. Sad to see that a concussion really started his downfall. Those weird requests tho about the hair and un retiring Mickey mantle jersey number tho cmon man💀.
I think the Mantle thing was made up because he wouldn't speak to the media as much as they wanted him to. And as for the hair thing, he kinda has a point lol
@@AndThatsBaseball the hair thing you just gotta deal with cause everyone knows it’s a yankee rule. I’d go bald if I could play for the Yankees for 1 AB.
@@Slimshady-nf9qx Yeah I don't think it's something worth complaining over, but I don't really agree with the tradition, even as a huge Yankees fan
As a Phillies fan, I was super excited for Appel and expected him to be one of our top pitching prospects while watching him in the minor leagues ... but obviously, that never happened. He's just another one of many, many horrifically failed prospects in the Phils' organization - Ben Lively, Nick Williams, Adam Morgan, Roman Quinn, Tommy Joseph, Jesse Biddle, Cody Asche, and Cornelius Randolph, to name a few. Watched a lot of these guys play at AA Reading in years' past just to see practically every single one of them fizzle out.
as a mets fan, i remember all of those names...except cornelius randolph, that literally sounds like a cartoon character
Appel was barely a prospect anymore when Philly got him
The Phils drafted JP Crawford and then let him get away. What happened with that brilliant move?
@@michaelwolf6424
I'm hardly a Philly fan, but since when is JP Crawford a big deal? The Phillies traded him for Jean Segura, who helped them win a pennant. Crawford is an okay major league player.
I was there when he made his debut against the braves, glad i was there to see it
Brien Taylor is still by far the biggest bust in MLB history.
True
@@AndThatsBaseball You are too young to know of a player for the Braves named Brad Komminsk in the 1980's. If you want to talk all time biggest busts, start there.
Awesome Video
Glad you enjoyed!
3:33 - whoa, Sixto Sanchez DID exist!
Is your background music the instrumental from the ‘Stonecutters song’ from the Simpsons episode ‘Home the Great’?
Lol
WE DO, WE DO!
I’m a fan of the NBA, NFL, and MLB and i think it’s funny how each league’s 2013 draft class is considered the worst ever by fans.
the hillbillies instrumental in the back is too fire
how are you able to use the beck cover? being able to play that song on the guitar, I can hear the extra notes
Love the use of Where it's at
As a Cuba fan, I m glad we got Bryant even though his peak was short lived
I dont watch baseball i love football and watch basketball
But for some reason i clicked and just wanna say well done video
Baseball minor league system is so bizarre to me 6 years b4 they even call em up sometimes
If Brien Taylor and Mark Appel ever fought, Appel would probably win since Taylor likely would have missed the punch and fell over on his shoulder.
I was coming to say…
I got to do play by play for some of trey ball’s games while he was at new castle, he was an amazing high school talent played outfield and pitched, had stupid good hitting a ability too. i was so hyped my team drafted him too but obviously id never panned out.
It’s so tough to project how talent will translate. Wonder what would’ve been if he began his pro career as an outfielder
I hit the first ever MiLN home run off of Mark… I now sell houses full time 😂
MiLB*
Now you can say you homered off a pennant winning MLB pitcher
@@CoreyAdamsonRealEstatewhy did you stop?
@@RenZ02z I wasn’t playing everyday (Hunter Renfroe was being played over me) I kind of saw the writing on the wall and fell out of love with it so retired.
Looking back I definitely had the skill and drive to make it but unfortunately was probably not mentally mature enough.
Mark Appel looked good out of the Phillies bullpen in 2022. I thought he was going to stick around.
fire background music
Austin brother Parker is also currently one of the Tigers top prospects and as long as Austin doesn't get traded cut or leaves he should be able to play with his brother in 2024
I was at Clint Frazier's debut game. Fun game.
at this point 2019 stats should have an asterisk next to them
It's really funny that almost every hitter on this list had their best year in 2019
@@AndThatsBaseball yep. i just saw that the MLB-wide OPS in 2019 was 50 points higher than in 2022
its honestly a shame about what happend to clint because i loved him on the yanks
I don't think Bickford should count as a near-bust, he got picked out of HS, he had some time in the bigs, and is still playing, that's more then you can say for the vast majority of picks, bad overall draft or not.
Oh yeah, he’s definitely got plenty of time left in the league, especially compared to most of these guys. Considering how beloved he is in the clubhouse, he could be a guy that sticks around forever.
It's weird how nfl nba and mlb all had bad drafts in 2013 it's like kids born In 92-94 weren't great athletes
No one will EVER be a bigger bust than Brien Taylor. Maybe it's because I'm a Yankee fan LOL
I will prob do a video on him one day. His story is so ridiculous it doesn’t even feel real. Should’ve listened to Crash Davis when he said never to punch with your throwing arm
He wasn't a bust. He was just an idiot for getting in that fight.
This video was 🔥🔥🔥
Kris Bryant had one the best starts to a career in mlb history. As we know injuries can ruin it all.
Content itself was very good but I gotta say, the soundtrack on this is all over the place. Super loud on the mix too. Just a heads up.
Anyone know the title of the music at the end of the video?
Ive never seen a route like that before wtf 🤣 13:45
I find it very ironic and coincedental that in three top major sports leagues in the US (NBA, MLB, NFL)
2013 was amongst the worst drafts for all three. Very odd year indeed
Weird right? Can't be a coincidence but there's no apparent linking thread.
When he was still with the Dodgers, my wife always said his name sounded like a car dealership, so around our house he was known as "Phil Bickford Chevrolet." 🤪
With bat speed like that Clint Frazier could be something special but I feel like maybe something like his attitude could be holding him back 🤷♂️
Baseball is the most difficult game to evaluate player ability. By far. You can only hope that a highly recommended player pans out. Either there are too many variables or the system used to evaluate players is inadequate. Either way, being drafted number one, especially as a position player, doesn’t come even close to being a lock for success.
2 turntables and a microphone 👍🤌
The 2013 NBA DRAFT (minus Giannis), NFL DRAFT, and MLB DRAFT, were all horrid.
I always felt bad for Clint Frazier on the Yanks it felt like they were in this weird limbo of we dont didnt wanna trade him because he has future star potential but we literally dont have a place to play him....wasted at least 4yrs of his career😂
Another guy who had his career absolutely wrecked by concussions was Tommy Joseph, poor guy just got concussed while catching over and over and over and over.
There’s such a theme of teams leaving players off post season rosters. Maybe that killed their confidence
Every draft in 2013 was horrible it’s actually crazy
CC said what every Yankees fan thought at the time, love that dude.
Bryant was never the same after he got hit in the head by that fast ball. Dude was electric when he joined the Cubs. He was damn good on that Giants team too. Injuries are weird sometimes, unfortunately.
Can you do a Pedro Martinez video lol I can’t get enough Pedro. Or a How Clutch Was Papi video… bc he was clutch lol
Can’t talk about the Red Sox being good for that long, sorry
@@AndThatsBaseball #FireChaimBloom I get it… I haven’t watched a Red Sox game in 3 years bc they’re so awful
Oh my god so I DID see Colin Moran at the airport. I had no idea he was traded to Tacoma but i saw the beard and thought "Is that Colin Moran?"
As a lifelong cardinals fan I still get chills from Bryant’s World Series play. I don’t like the cubs by any means but damn I liked Bryant
Hey! I subscribed
What was it about 2013? The NFL draft sucked this year, the NBA draft sucked this year, and so did the MLB
Anthony Bennett is somehow a bigger bust than Appel
I honestly wish Clint panned out in NY. I loved him in his first year. But he just kept going downhill. Sad to see
