Re: The Official (First) Draft Day Thread - 2010
There were 6 guys last year that signed for more that $3mil, Strasburg, Ackley, Tate all signed for more than $6mil, with Turner getting $5.5 and Matzek getting $3.9 from the Rockies. Wheeler got 3.3 from the Giants.
In 2008 seven guys got more than 3mil - Beckham, Alvarez, Hosmer & Posey all got around $6mil. Matsuz & Alonso got $4mil, and Smoak got 3.5. My point being is these guys ask for the moon, knowing they'll probably get half that. Remember all the "Strasburg for $50 mil" talk last year. He got $15. Supposedly Posey wanted $8-10mil on draft day. |

Re: The Official (First) Draft Day Thread - 2010
KLaw chat saying new name involved for Reds: RHP Chance Ruffin out of U of Texas. Ranked 65 by Law.
Uh oh. Looks like a reliever...I wonder if this would be a move for this year. |

Re: The Official (First) Draft Day Thread - 2010
If the Reds draft Chance Ruffin with the #12 pick then heads need to roll. That would be an awful pick at No. 12. If they can get him with their 62nd overall pick then I would be thrilled, but in the first round? No thanks.

Re: The Official (First) Draft Day Thread - 2010
Any chance with all the talk of the Reds going after a player that will sign for slot is just that talk or is it really true and if so why ? Chapman ?

Re: The Official (First) Draft Day Thread - 2010
Has anyone on here seen Ohio U. outfielder Gauntlett Eldemire play? Keith Law mentioned him as a possible second or third round pick. I was just looking at his scouting report, he appears to have plenty of tools. I wouldn't mind the Reds grabbing him in the second or third round.
Here's a link to his scouting video. http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?co...pic_id=8080130

Three more hours until the draft, though the Reds probably won't make their pick until around 8:00.
