    outfield. likely right.

    eli iorg is like carlos beltran. 5 tool stud.


    Marlins selected McNeese State RHP Jacob Marceaux with the 29th pick. ($$)

    Funny thiing is... if you tried to do a plus 3 system like the NFL... then MLB would just claim that minor league is not major and their players stay there usually 3 years minimum out of highschool or college.

    damn they just announced the astros are bucking the scouts and are going to move bogusevic to the pen.

    I suppose relief but he is a lefty and throws in the 90's.

    he has a nice future either way.

    scott boras killing these kids in the draft continually.


    I assume that's who hochevar's agent is and demanding too much money. thats the only thing that makes sense. kid is super talented.

    i hate scott boras.

    How right you are! He's over-pricing the game. High player salaries = higher ticket prices.

    im all for free enterprise and getting the most you can but when he's hurting these kid's careers by simply being greedy I think its wrong. Yet how can they tell him no when he has the most power of any of them (agents). I cant blame the kids for going that route but now they must be aware who they're dealing with at this point.

    teams see his name and immediately pass them over.

    Agreed 100% Tirk.

    So far into the 12th round we have only lost 4 recruits, so we might come out as bad as we thought. Not sure what round each individual we recruited is willing to take a chance, but were looking okay so far.

    Delgado just had a LHP selected named Sheldon Catchof.

    After the 10th round or so, it's favorable that they won't sign contracts.

    Does anyone have a link to a site that lists the picks so far? I went to MLB.com, but all I can find is the top 25. Maybe I am just having a blonde day.
