2008 Day 1 Draft Thread

[Ryno is God 23]

Melville over Odorizzi?

[UK1679666180]

Friedrich

Hicks

Cashner or Perry

Lowrie

Davis

Wallace

 

(should go next 6)

 

Then Melville

[UK1679666180]

Minn. might go for Friedrich here.

[Guest]

I think Ping gets this one right.

 

I meant Friedrich, not Wallace though Ping guessed both.

 

I think Twins take Lawrie and Friedrich falls some more.

[jersey cubs fan]

That is one fat SOB.

[CuseCubFan69]

Wallace looks kind of circular.

[UK1679666180]

I know Tor. likes college, they wouldn't pass on Lowrie though?

[Guest]

Only 3 prep guys out of 13 and none since Skipworth at 6.

They did take Snider out of HS. I think they'll take Friedrich, though.

 

14. Lawrie

15. Hick

16. Friedrich

[UK1679666180]

Wallace was fatter in HS.

[UK1679666180]

Minn. takes Hicks, starting to see a athlete/speed trend with them.

[cubweiser03]

That is one fat SOB.

a lot of his weight looks like it below the belt.

how the hell do you lose that.

He looks like Benji Molina playing third.

[Guest]

Hicks. Wow.

 

Dodgers take Ethan Martin now. TOR takes Friedrich.

[UK1679666180]

Hicks. Wow.

 

Dodgers take Ethan Martin now. TOR takes Friedrich.

 

I'm going with Cashner to LA.

[RammyFanny]

Damn. I want Martin/Friedrich/Lawrie.

[Guest]

I guessed 8 of the first 9 (Alfonso -> Reds). Haven't gotten one right since.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

BA:

 

The Twins now have Aaron Hicks atop their board waiting for them. That could leave Martin at 15 for the Dodgers, Lawrie at 16 and perhaps Christian Friedrich at 17 for the Jays, who like college lefties. The Mets are said to prefer Ryan Perry out of Arizona at No. 18 overall, but the Cubs are something of a mystery at No. 19.

Im right there as well.

[UK1679666180]

Wonder if the Cubs like Ike Davis?

[RammyFanny]

I'm afraid of what the Brewers can do in the draft, I hope they blow their wad on some relievers.

Lawrie would be about right for the Brewers, totally forget them and thought the Blue Jays were 16. I think they have 15-17 right.

Their scouting director is one the best (2nd to Logan White, IMO)

I think Lawrie or Martin, whomever the Dodgers don't take.

[Ryno is God 23]

Gut feeling Cubs take Odorizzi.

 

Fire away. :cool:

[UK1679666180]

I agree with Lawrie to the Brewers.
