He's in this draft?Originally Posted by dougdirt
I'd take a chance on him.
I will say the Kansas City Royals will take a chance on Almonte.
Oh, hey, there's like a real game on here soon.
yup, draft should be over by then..

Yeah, I just turned on the Dragons game broadcast on...I need something to cheer me up.
I love the Wehrle pick. Where in the heck did that come from???
another short stop
Ryan Wehrle - univ. of neb. lincoln
draft elgible soph.
signaibility a concern, but he's a corner in a class weak on college bats.. good hitter w/developing power..may stay at SS as a pro, but his bat will play at third down the line..

These are the types of chances we should have been taking a bit earlier IMO.. on Laporta, Lars Anderson, etc.Originally Posted by NC Reds

I like the Wehrle pick too....if we can sign him.
Red Sox draft Lars Anderson
Round 18: Hey, a guy with a scouting report:
Ryan Wehrle, SS, U. Nebraska at Lincoln
"As a draft-eligible sophomore, signability is a concern, but he's a comer in a class weak on college bats. A good hitter with developing power, he may play at SS as a pro, but his bat will play at third base down the road."
A) At 6'3" and 0 pounds, he could probably use a good meal.
B) So does his bat take up a roster spot if it's going to play next to him in the infield?
Further insult on my mock draft: my second-rounder, catcher Mike Ambort (Lamar)... went to Oakland in round eighteen.
Boston drafts 1B Lars Anderson.
Finished off at 18 rounds for today.
Did the Cards jsut draft a guy who will be 28 later this year?
Looks that way. Maybe they felt sorry for us today.Originally Posted by dougdirt
says he was born 1978...typo possibly? 1987 maybe?
