2009 Draft & Signings Thread

[Guest]

I hope the Marlins take Miller, I don't want the Cardinals to get him.

 

Son of a bitch.

[A-Cal]

sweet, i am glad no one has picked jackson yet!

[Outshined_One]

Uncooked steak from Texas to the Cardinals.

[TruffleShuffle]

nobody is going to take jackson... we're probably just gonna have to hope that the cubs don't take him.

JP Ricciardi has to have the worlds biggest boner with Wheeler, Mitchell, Arnett, and Brothers on the board. If it's not one of those four, super sleepers are Joe Kelly and Matt Davidson.

JP Ricciardi has to have the worlds biggest boner with Wheeler, Mitchell, Arnett, and Brothers on the board*. If it's not one of those four, super sleepers are Joe Kelly and Matt Davidson.

 

* and the Kennesaw boys

[TruffleShuffle]

[Guest]

ETA: Didn't think pitcher.

I have no idea here. The Astros are about as unpredictable as they come with their picks. And their system shows that. God-awful.

[Mephistopheles]

let's hope mitchell slides (and scheppers)

[Guest]

I say Jared Mitchell.

 

We could hope the Astros take Brett Jackson.

[Mephistopheles]

Trout, Brothers and Williams are my best guesses.

[Mephistopheles]

I say Jared Mitchell.

 

We could hope the Astros take Brett Jackson.

 

I can see them taking Stassi or Myers too btw.

[Outshined_One]

I didn't recognize Craig Biggio without his suit of armor on.

[RyneSandberg]

........really Houston?

[RammyFanny]

Solid pick surprisingly (IMO). Edited June 9, 2009 by RammyFanny

[Guest]

Wowwww.

[Outshined_One]

Always skeptical of great D, questionable bat prep shortstops. Not a good pick for the Astros.
