This has worked out well for me. I did the dishes during the first several picks. Now I'm scanning some pictures my wife asked me to do for a wedding coming up. Listening to draft and getting to be productive - win, win for me.

Arroyo only has 1 more year, and Bailey and Leake will soon get expensive.

That's horrible. I think Buckley just popped his shoulder out of socket with that reach.

"He projects more as a reliever than a starter".

Awesome.

Well, so much for giving a crap about this draft. What a joke.

Re: Official 2012 Draft Day Thread (Day 1)
Serious reach by the Reds. Nice job. They just drafted a guy at 14 that may have been available at 49. And they just said on MLB Network he may project better as a reliever.
