2009 Draft & Signings Thread

[Brian]

uh oh, they haven't said if this guy is a athlete or baseball player. I'm skeptical of this pick.

[Guest]

Come on Tampa, take Brett Jackson.

[RammyFanny]

"Sort of a smaller guy like Josh Hamilton".

 

Yeah 6'4 240 is tiny.

[Outshined_One]

I think we should draft a lawnmower. Wrigley has a lot of grass and you draft according to your ballpark.

need somebody to handle the heat for the day games.

[Mephistopheles]

Most likely obvious Cubs picks: Wheeler, Heckathorn, Brothers

Most likely sleeper Cubs picks: Gould, Kipnis, Poythress

 

Top on my board.

 

Tanner Scheppers

Rex Brothers

David Renfroe

James Paxton

Everett Williams

Garrett Gould

Matt Davidson

Jeff Malm

Max Stassi

[Guest]

I think the Rays take Tommy Joseph. The Cubs will then take Brett Jackson.

[Little Slide Rooter]

So whats the deal with Brett Jackson and why does he get Aaron Miles hate?

K's a lot, doesn't walk a lot. Hits for decent power but a lot of people seem to think he won't in the pros, sounds like he might have a hole in his swing or something

[RyneSandberg]

Who?

[Brian]

Colvin. Haha.

[Hall7810]

Time for more luster to come off the Wilken mystique.

[Little Slide Rooter]

K's a lot, doesn't walk a lot. Hits for decent power but a lot of people seem to think he won't in the pros, sounds like he might have a hole in his swing or something

 

Sounds like a Rob Deer or Russ Branyan, or worse, Jason Dubois.

[Little Slide Rooter]

I know little about Jackson, and Im dreading him now.

[A-Cal]

i really don't think it will be jackson
