It should be interesting to see what bust the Blue Jays draft this year.

[mikedanger]

hosmer was projected to the rangers at #11...oh well.

[Tarheelfan44]

hosmer was projected to the rangers at #11...oh well.

he's a talent. can pitch too. ive heard a decent amount about him switching to RF


Im just pissed the Braves don't have a first round pick because of Glavine

[brewer fan]

The Reds taking Alonso is a surprise.

[mikedanger]

i think everyone assumed that he would drop because of boras...

[Tarheelfan44]

i think everyone assumed that he would drop because of boras...

yeah, but aparantly under the new "regime" that dayton is implementing its talent talent talent.

[Tarheelfan44]

Im really surprised too by the lack of quality pitching...

[Tarheelfan44]

wow. surprising run on catchers here

[mikedanger]

jason castro? from american idol? :p

[brewer fan]

Castro went early.

[Chevy Man 22]

Nice pick by the Rangers there since Salty is no doubt going to be the catcher of the future for the Rangers they needed a solid 1B replacement.

[mikedanger]

nice pick rangers...let's hope he can get here quickly...we're suffering at 1st base right now.

[Raven Maniac (aka TJ87)]

With their track record of drafting pitchers, I hear the Orioles have already scheduled Matusz for major arm surgery. At least they're being proactive.

[Tarheelfan44]

i love how theyre making fun of wallace being fat haha

[Chevy Man 22]

Gordon Beckham needs to take a trip to the barbershop he must have 20 lbs. of hair on his head.

[RickyWilliams34]

Nice pick by the Rangers there since Salty is no doubt going to be the catcher of the future for the Rangers they needed a solid 1B replacement.

No doubt? Dont be too surprised if he gets moved to first possibly. Taylor Teagarden and Max Ramirez are both doing extremely well in the Rangers farm system.

[rupy017]

The Cubs drafted a Closer. Not a bad way to go.

[BIGG-AL]

Nice of the Padres to pick a 1st baseman that can't play anywhere else and it's the only position that is solid. Dumb arces

[mrmet6986]

huh i wonder why the mets took a shortstop first. i can definately think of a couple other positions we could use a stud prospect at.

True but you figure it will take him at least 2 or 3 years in the minors to make it to the big club and by that time Gonzalez's contract will be up and it's very unlikely the Padres are going to be able to pay him that huge payday he has coming.

[dirtysox]

Brett Lawrie at 16! That makes him the highest-drafted position player from BC.
His sister has nice boobs too.

[mikedanger]

His sister has nice boobs too.

are there any pics of her NOT in a softball uniform?

no way dude! i just looked and shes a cow.

[mikedanger]

no way dude! i just looked and shes a cow.

cows can have some nice knockers though...

[Tarheelfan44]

cows can have some nice knockers though...

the former completely erases anything good established by the latter

always and forever.

Nothing like spelling it out.

[Elias_Devil]

Has Jason Knapp been drafted yet? I got to play against him this year and the guy's a beast.

[Elias_Devil]

Phillies got him 71st
