Picked a couple scrubs lately, but we like them. Manny Ramirez had decent ratings from our head scout but we mostly drafted him just to get to say "Manny being Manny."
SS Curt Bolton plays all four infield positions at a high level, and our scouts see him as a fairly average hitter but with a good eye and avoid k's and very good baserunning skills. We'll take that this late in the draft.

It's Tampa Rays syndrome... you draft in the Top 5 enough years in a row... your system is going to at least get good on paper.
But, I have found some nice players in the 7th Round and later lately. Reigning ILA Player of the Week was a 15th Rounder... my top hitter in Single A was a 14th... pretty lucky really... but you lock into TYPES that you like.
