1992 BLB Amateur Draft

[spot]

LA is on Auto From List... but I don't know if he has a list.

I'll be sure to have a list until I switch to Auto. I wouldn't want to ruffle the feathers in this crowd...

I really, really, really dislike Spot at the moment.

Jeremiah Kelly?

It was either him or Roberson. Every guy that I have been targeting has been getting taken right around my pick.

The remainder of this draft will be the first time I fully test the strength behind the numbers in College/High School.

Before, I drafted based purely on skill level and other factors. Now, since I feel most of the guys are basically only hoping to be good enough to make the show (unless they have hidden ratings jumps), I'm going to ignore cruise control as I've done in the past after a specific round and look for talent based on statistics that I like.

Should be interesting.

Colonials use 3.16 on another reliever... this time homegrown Artie Francis out of Woodbridge, VA. He was actually a batboy for the Colonials during the tragic 1982 that saw the team claim their only Co-Commissioner's Cup.

Francis - who has 29 career saves at "The U" - is a 20-30 pitch type hurler who may prove to be a longshot to ever make the big club. But, the team loves his heart and love for the organization.

Pawtucket used the 3rd round on LF Yoshinaka Agano.

18 with sometime to improve. Hoping he becomes a high OBP dude.

[Gyrodork]

WTF?! There were two players on my draft list that were above the player we picked. Now they're gone, dammit. I hate technology.

[Pat]

Still looking to trade up, offering multiple picks to draft soon.

For the 71st pick in the 1992 BLB Draft, the Bulldogs select:



Pat Morris (SP), University of California, Berkeley

-Morris was a Top 60 pick according to Bill Rorison's scouting staff. With a fastball that can top out at 100mph, Morris may has the stuff to blow by nearly any batter at the NCAA level. Pat is a pretty smart kid and doesn't mind putting in the extra effort to get better. Couple that with his ability to pitch a full game, every outing if necessary, Morris has a lot of good potential that may translate to a BLB level pitcher.

[Jake]

Pick/trade in soon.

[Clay]

PAW beat the clock. Now at 4.5 with... no shock... Syracuse.

[Jake]

Boom baby.

[Pat]

I was trying to trade back into the draft for about the last 20 picks to draft Chip Carver.













Fuck you Jake.

[Jake]

I made you an offer for the pick.

[Pat]

Truex.

[Clay]

Carver was on my ever-dwindling list.
