Make your prediction: Who will the Reds draft with the 12th overall pick?

The 2010 MLB Draft is just two days away and the rumors are heating up. I thought it would be fun for everyone to predict who the Reds will draft. This isn't who you want the Reds to draft but who you think they will draft.

My prediction:

Deck McGuire, RHP, Georgia Tech

Christian Colon, SS, Cal-State Fullerton

I want to add that of all the drafts I think this one I have the least guesses about. In previous years we kinda had an idea of maybe 3 or 4 guys the reds could draft but this year it seems like there is a dozen of possibilities.

If it were up to me, it would come down to Brentz, Castellanos or Grandal. If the reported money demands for Grandal are true, he's probably out of the mix. I would be more than happy with either Castellanos or Brentz. So in the end, I say they will pick:

Any chance we draft someone like Grandal [with his high bonus demands] and essentially punt the pick this year? Obviously we'd get the #12 pick again next year as a make up, so part of me could see it happening and almost calling Chapman our 2010 #1 pick.

Wimmers. Only if McGuire isn't available though.
