*OFFICIAL* 2000 BLB AMATEUR DRAFT

[funclown]

Colonials take Brenden Lindsey out of Clemson. Kid will need to shake some of the walks if he wants to dance with the Champs... but he's a legit Top 50 makeup and looks semi-close at 21.

Welcome to Title Town.

Last guy left on my top 10 board. My scout had "Projects well"

[Jake]

Like him as well. My board spit him out at third among SP but I'm so leery of how control develops nowadays.

[Dave]

Pick or trade will be up in a few. Busy morning at work, just acquainting myself with what's available.

Um, tell your boss it's a busy morning at the BLB instead.

Was looking at Robles history and saw this.

04/11/1998 - Hits three home runs against the Chatham Anglers, going 6-6 with 13 RBI and 7 runs scored.

Not a bad day.

[Dave]

Pick is in. Apologies for the delay.

[Matt]

Pick in a few...unless I trade it.

And by few I mean 9:35 at the latest, I gotta get to sleep.

[Dave]

Olson was one of four players I was considering with that pick. My scout likes him, while at the same time giving him poor ratings. I wasn't seeing it.

[Jake]

I liked Olson. Figured he wouldn't slide to 1.23. But was the best guy left on my board by far.

[Clay]

I chose between Olson and Lindsey at 1.18. Lindsey has a few things I like a little more, but could have easily been Olson. He's the last Top 50 guy on my OSA Predictions.

[Jistic]

Mr. Jumpy Pants is on the clock.

Pawtucket selects P/OF Ethan 'Mule' Costa.

Looks like he can handle backend starter duties with sometime maybe midrotation. Like his "stuff". Is a natural born leader and thinks money is stupid.

Now, can he do other things???

Yes, he very specifically can do other things. Check his batting ratings.

Yeah, but until I get him not sure what his real projection in say CF will be.

Either way, solid starter no less. In single A might "both ways" until I get a grip on his future.

Two picks coming up shortly so we feel Mule was worth it at this pick.

[fsquid]

I still got my 7, 17, and 19 rated guy still available. I had Olsen 11th.
