2010 BLB Amateur Draft Beginning Thurs 1/29

[Lintyfresh85]

Went with Frank Dutan with my second pick. Another non-feeder league pitcher. Hope one of he or Cordova pan out.

[RobD]

Thanks Sully. My scout loves him too. I had him on my radar for a while and when I saw I could get him there I had to jump on it (probably would have went Dutan if he was off the board). Gotta start somewhere, and I'm fortunate for inheriting the draft picks that I did. Definitely going to be looking to deal a few guys to get younger too hopefully.

Amigos select Beavers 2B Joey Fox with their 3rd selection in the draft.

A DWI 2B with some pop potential, high WE and INT, and some speed. We'll have to deal with the strikeout totals but it's hard to pass on a defensive wiz up the middle.

[Pat]

I thought he would last a bit longer. Nice pick.

I actually thought that he was a Bat-type player when I took him.

You know me so well.

Loving my first round pick already.


GAME LOG

Looks like Yarmouth-Dennis is in the Cape Cod Semis right now. 1st inning , Malik (Roberson) hits a 3-run blast to put his team ahead. The pitcher gets pissed and beans the next batter. Chaos ensues as the benches clear when the batter approaches the mound.

All because Malik hurt that kid's feeling.

Malik goes on to hit a 2 run HR in the 3rd and finished the game going 2/3 with 2 home runs, 3 walks and 5 RBI (3.500 OPS for the game) leading his team to a dominant 17-5 win in the first game of the series.

Good pick. Thought this guy would fall deeper. I don't have a pick till the 3rd but wouldn't have been surprised if he lasted that long.

Is it really a good pick when two guys say they thought he'd last longer?

Because I hoped others wouldn't notice him.

Oh, I get lazy in the third...

[Jake]

Just took 2b pat hamill at 2.6. Scout had him as the best overall middle infielder in the draft. Couple other guys I considered but figured they had a better chance to fall. One of them I think could be a top 3 hitter in the draft.
