2012 First Year Player Draft

Featured Replies

At #14, Mr. Red selects Nick Travieso.

 

 

Yeah I've definitely heard that name before. Dude was a force to be reckoned with in Broward this year.

I'm really curious to know if the Marlins would have taken Appel if the Royals hadn't.

 

 

What made him drop so bad?

Sign-ability and a rather unpopular agent. It has also been speculated he attempted to manipulate his way to Washington.

just my opinion here, but we should go after someone good.

 

 

Well that would be a 1st for Beinfest. His 1st round picks have all been busts so far - but of course 2009, 2010, 2011 can't be determined yet and 2008 has possibilities but not promising so far.

 

I feel sorry for Heaney, his chances of making the bigs are low if you look at the Beinfest numbers.

If he doesn't make it, it's because Beinfest selected him? Man that is strange.

Marlins selection in third round is a bit of a steal, Avery Romero ss from Menendez HS in St. Augustine, was projected to go around 79 and got hime with 104th pick

Hopefully he signs, some scouts feel he could transform into a buster posey type prospect if he goes to college and coverts to catcher.

Not exactly what I said but if you want to look at that way you can.

 

I have no other way to see Beinfest's failures in the 1st round. Throwing a dart at a board would get you better results than he has had. This is like his 16th 1st round pick for the Marlins, and not a single one has been a major contributor except for Volstad. Tankersley had some time with us before he bombed out, and Dominguez was annointed the 3rd base guy before he showed that so far he is not ready. Beinfest is holding this franchise back. Those 1st round picks are your best chance to get better, and he fails us each and every time.

 

Meanwhile teams like the Nationals and Rays continue to obliterate us in the draft, even in the later rounds.

 

I will pop champagne the day Beinfest is gone.
