Draft Pick Discussion

Sherrod is so talented.

????????

????????

He can play pretty much any position on the field and had a 21-game hitting streak. The kid is very talented, but no work ethic. Late 2nd rounder....decent pick.

Sherrod is so talented. I'm wondering if he's going to have what it takes to make it to the bigs though.

He can play any position outside of catcher, so he's certainly a guy you can find a place for.

Got ya. He was the guy on my war board (phase 1). Just wasn't seeing so talented part, but what you said makes sense.

Hey. I didn't say I would draft him this early.

The issue at hand is WTF is taking Brad so long to pick?????

Offer still out there after the sandwich round. I'll give up 96 3rd and 4th + this years 5th to move up.

I'm not good. They will be high picks.

Mississippi took SP Zack Johnson with one of their sandwich round picks. I like him. Solid movement & control. My scout gives him an '8' on stamina. Fragile tag is a little bothersome, but I think he's a solid pick. Wacky HS stats.

Looks like UMD is really in pain making this all important, franchise changing pick.

Calm down. Don't go all Carlos on us.

With the #58 pick in the draft, Baltimore selects:

Angelo Barrios from Costa Rica.

I'm extremely surprised Barrios fell this far. I think he has the potential to be a pretty good player in the BLB. Pretty well developed for a 20 year old and will likely start in AA ball. My scout believes he was the 6th best hitter in the draft (potential) and of course being a lefty with power in Baltimore is always a plus.

Got the draft moving again.

[Carlos]

Got the draft moving again.

Wait! The 3rd round started?

I was promised we wouldn't even get through the first round this weekend.

Don't give yourself too much credit...my afternoon nap was over.

So I drafted our first catcher this year. You guys can thank me for popping the cherry.

That also gives Denver 51 catching prospects now.

And I took yet another international player just moments ago. If someone's gonna prove that IT guys can play, it's gonna be me.

ĦOle!
