2012 Draft Day Thread + Cubs Picks Discussion

[Hairyducked Idiot]

The clock doesn't start until the interview has been completed? That is odd.

 

There's no trades or anything, so it seems like the clocks are mostly for show.

[CubsInNC]

:lol: they didn't take the tags off the jersey, are they going to put it back in the store after he takes his pics??

 

I think that it's somewhat a distinct possibility. Because he can not sign, and go to college (remain an amateur- not likely), wouldn't it be an improper benefit if the team gave him a free jersey?

[Ballgame64]

I'd rather go to U of Miami :)

I'd take the $6M and become a Houston fan.

No doubt about it. At least they are moving to the American League so if he turns out to be another Troy T the Cubs won't have to face him multiple times a year.

Thinking Twins favor Appel, Seattle jumps up and down for Buxton.

[Guest]

No surprise there.

[Tryptamine]

Well, we're getting a pitcher.

Do you think Byron Buxton's girlfriend has fun at those family parties??

[El Duderino]

Poor Tim.

[mookie]

Alright, Almora is looking really good right now.

[CUBZ99]

Please let one of the pitchers fall to the Cubs.

[mookie]

Aw, he's glad he's a Twins.

[Clem Fandango]

Byron Buxton is a non-stop thrill ride of emotion

[Tryptamine]

If the O's don't take Appel he's going to be there at 6. KC seemed to dislike him.

buxton may not have a future as a broadcaster

Ha..."I hadn't heard nothing yet"

[Guest]

I need to rethink my draft now. I guess I'm for:

 

Almora

Gausman

Zunino

Fried

Appel

I wonder why the Astros backed off...

[Tryptamine]

Wow, we're getting a good pitcher appel or gausman

[Guest]

YES!!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Remind me of this next year when I start to believe that the online "experts" know anything.

[mookie]

Nice pick Seattle. He should help out all those young twirlers coming up.
