June 7, 200719 yr ESPN has slowed the draft way down. Yeah, it's great that it's on TV, but the frantic pace of the draft made it enjoyable for me.
June 7, 200719 yr Anyone remember what happened the last time the D-Rays took a collegiate pitcher out of a Tennessee college with their first pick?
June 7, 200719 yr I almost expect literal sh*t to come foaming out of Phillips' mouth when he speaks.
June 7, 200719 yr I hope MLB didn't tell every team to use the full 5 minutes. Nice to see David Rawnsley on as an expert.
June 7, 200719 yr FWIW: I dont like Moustakas at all and think he will be a huge bust. He looks about 5'10'' and too stocky, almost chubby looking. Don't like that frame at all from a HS guy. This pick isn't a surprise though, it was either him or Vitters.
June 7, 200719 yr If they're taking a Boras guy, why not Porcello or Wieters? Serious serious shocker.
June 7, 200719 yr I don't think a highlight of him running the bases was the best choice. :lol More like Moustlasses
June 7, 200719 yr Did the Royals just throw a curveball? No I think so. If you'd tell me they'd take a position player, I'd have said Vitters. If you'd told me they'd take a Boras guy, I'd have said Porcello.

June 7, 200719 yr Apparently the Cubs were negotiating with Jarrod Parker, but with Vitters still on the board they could go for him now instead. According to the BA blog here, http://www.baseballamerica.com/blog/draft/
June 7, 200719 yr The pirates pick is the pivotal pick of the 1st round. Noone really knows what they are going to do. I think they take a reach like Mesaroca the catcher from PA or even Beau Mills.
June 7, 200719 yr Cubs should have taken the catcher. Vitters is the best hitter in the draft. I think that was a good pick for them. The pirates pick is the pivotal pick of the 1st round. Noone really knows what they are going to do. I think they take a reach like Mesaroca the catcher from PA or even Beau Mills. Well, we know they're not taking a high-school arm with the way they've been burned
June 7, 200719 yr I hope that is a big case of the nerves for him during this interview or that kid is as dumb as a rock.

I hope that is a big case of the nerves for him during this interview or that kid is as dumb as a rock. I was thinking the same thing. Dude sounded like a dumbass.
June 7, 200719 yr I like Weiters or Heyward for us, what do you guys like? 4th pick: Daniel Moskos to the Pirates.
