Draft Roundup: Pirates, Padres, Angels

A few draft links for Friday…

• Chuck Finder of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette talked to Pirates GM Neal Huntington and president Frank Coonelly.  Huntington said signability is not "a sole driving factor," while Coonelly talked about wanting to get players signed quickly.  The Pirates seem to be leaning toward pitching with the #4 pick based on comments from scouting director Greg Smith.  ESPN's Keith Law predicted the Pirates will take high school infielder Bobby Borchering, Baseball America went with college righty Kyle Gibson, and MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo picked Aaron Crow.   Huntington said that the team's international dealings and the draft are "independent entities."  In other words, they won't go cheap in the draft in order to sign Miguel Angel Sano. 
• Chris Jenkins of the San Diego Union-Tribune says the Padres are eyeing Dustin Ackley, Donovan Tate (Boras clients), high school righty Zach Wheeler, college lefty Mike Minor, and Crow at #3.  BA predicted Grant Green (another Boras client), Law chose Crow, and Mayo went with Minor.
• The Angels have five picks in the first 48, according to Kevin Baxter of the L.A. Times.  The Halos seem to be looking at prep players: Mike Trout, Everett Williams, Jiovanni Mier, and Tyler Skaggs.
• Rich Lederer of Baseball Analysts has a Q&A with Baseball America's Jim Callis.
• Callis talked to scouts about righties Crow and Tanner Scheppers.
