Ok, here are a few of the guys I wouldnt mind seeing the Reds take. These are not in order.
Luke Hochevar
Bill Rowell
Clayton Kershaw
Brad Lincoln
Tim Lincecum

of course Miller and Longoria would work as well, but there is about no way either slip to us.

[BuckeyeRedleg]

1. Lincecum
2. Morrow
3. Scherzer
4. Lincoln
5. Bard
6. Chamberlain
7. Kershaw
8. Rowell
9. Stubbs

OK...John Manuel said on his chat that the Drabek story will be out later today and it is a great article. He said that it isn't Jeff Allison scary (aka, heroin addict). Feeling better about Drabek...

[LoganBuck]

Allison was an oxycontin addict wasn't he?

[Superdude]

Drabek's stuff is better than I thought. He was sitting at 94MPH in his draft video with a nasty curve.

Allison was an oxycontin addict wasn't he?

Yes, but oxycontin is 1 molecule away in structure from Heroin.

5 mg of Oxycontin is the equivalent of 1 percocet.

So an 80mg oxycotin pill is like taking 16 percocets at once.. just to give you an idea of the strength of this pain killer.

So, you can see perhaps, why Allison has the problems he has.

I'm liking College of Charleston catcher Alex Garabedian. Where do you draft experts think he will fall in the draft? He was picked by the Yankees in the 7th round 2 years ago.
