Go Gators!
Lord knows you don't want to pass on Nomar to take C.J. Nitkowski,just because he's a college pitcher only a fool would do that. But then again you could pick Dante Powell.Commentator said in the 1st round you always draft best available. He said that Bruce was rated by some teams as the No. 4 player available, so the Reds should be happy w/ him.
Bruce may be a great talent but I have a feeling DanO won't be around to see him play at GABP.
Alright. What's the holdup. They said it would resume at 1:45.
well, torra went to the Dbacks as the 1st supplemental pick
Bowden couldn't take Maybin because he didn't have the money, but he would have been all over Maybin if he had it(Where have I heard that before?).
No Roe....just went.

Indians take John Drennen. Nice pick.
Wow, it's nice that we made a first round pick that looks real good 5 minutes after draft day.
DanO and Reynolds made a good call here. We need everything in our system. I feel a lot more confident about making Bruce a MLer than another HS pitcher.
So are they at the end of the first round? I have a friend that is expecting to be picked in the second round. A HS pitcher. He's a lefty, about 6'8" throws a fastball in the low 90's, has hit as high as 94, a good splitter and a change. He has started working on a curve. Cards, Cubs, BoSox, and a few other teams have payed a lot of attn to him. Supposedly the reds are out of the picture though. He pitched for New Richmond HS, Dave Duncan is his name.
Roe to the Rockies as compensation for Vinny Castilla....uhhh, I'll take Roe.

4 pitchers for the Marlins
Pads took Cesar Ramos from Long Beach - good pick.
IMO there's not a HS arm worth taking with the #60 pick. BA rates a whole pile of them from 34 to 63 (13 to be exact), but I like the college arms rated behind them better.Originally Posted by Jaycint
I'm not a system player. I am a system.
The Marlins are LOADING up on power pitchers. No surprise.
