lets aim for the #1 draft pick

[crowes74]

we got the royals in our sight. i believe they are only 3 games behind us.

who cares that the top pick doesn't always pan out.

 

at least when this month is over we can lose dusty.

I'm hearing the best player might be David Price from Vanderbilt.

 

if he gets a big name agent the chances of teams picking ahead of

us:

 

KC

Tampa

Pittsburgh

 

Likely wouldn't draft him anyways.

[A New Era]

Is he really rated #1 you think? What position does he play?

Pitcher...Lefty...Vanderbilt.

 

I don't know for sure if he is #1.

 

No more HS kids as far as I am concerned.

The Royals took Hochevar this year and tampa took Delmon Young in 03 so I don't think that they would neccessarily avoid the big money guys. The pirates would be stupid to do so because there franchise is such a mess and it would be another bad PR move in string of many.

There is no clear-cut #1, but Price has as good a shot as anyone else.

 

Others who have been talked about highly and could possibly go #1:

 

RHP Andrew Brackman, North Carolina State

C Matt Wieters, Georgia Tech

RHP Matt Harvey, HS (Connecticut)

RHP Michael Main, HS (Florida)

SS Justin Jackson, HS (North Carolina)

Call me crazy but I want position players, and when I say that I mean best available, not a stretch like Colvin. Wieters please :)

So even if we are #2 or #3 in the fecal league, we should still have our pick of a really good player, right?

Yeah, this should be a really strong draft...especially at the high school levels.

 

Frankly, I'd love Wieters or Price.

I agree it would be nice to see some position players...but this organization has alot better luck with finding arms IMO.

 

Maybe we can rebuilt with young guns part II

 

Rich Hill

Sean Gallagher

Donald Veal

David Price

[Warren Brusstar]

Isn't there a toolsy athlete from Dunedin High School available? He'll fit right in.

I would hate to see a first round catcher.

[A New Era]

We suck so bad, couldn't we just have all of them? We'd still be lucky to end up with 1 good player even then, I think. .

[BigbadB]

Don't forget the sandwich picks we'll get when Pierre leaves and Aramis opts out.

While he's got a great arm, I'm all for drafting Matt Wieters as a position player.
