He's headed JUCO also...draft and follow might make sense. Who knows, he could add a few mph on the fastball and become a steal.Originally Posted by Reds Fanatic

Reds round 49:
Cameron Bayne RHP St. Louis School HS 6'3" 200 Lbs.
Reds round 50:
Blake Benveniste 3B Chaminade Prep HS 6'2" 195 lbs.
That is the last pick for the Reds 2006 draft.
P/3B Blake Benveniste (R/R, 6-2, 185) - Uncommitted as far as I am aware
Good athletic build, has some decent two-way skills. Looks like a pitcher, showed decent stuff that will have to improve (JC ball would be great for him). FB was 83-85 and he has a 73-75 slurvy breaking ball. Offensively he showed a good swing and some power potential. Likely would get a chance as a two-way guy at JC level, but arm works enough on the mound to figure he is going to develop into an 87-90 type guy in a couple of years.
This will not change until the Reds win the World Series.......

Blake Benveniste is the last player chosen for the Reds.
He's Mr. Irrelevant, 2006 for the Reds.
Chaminade Prep HS (CA). 3B 6'2 195 R/R
Thanks again for all of your input on this draft.
I think this was a tremendous success as far as our coverage here on Redszone.

Your Mom is happy.
Seems like he has potential...I like these "projectable" types towards the end of the draft.
Yes, thanks Red Leader and everyone else that provided updates.
It is very much appreciated.
