Jason Thompson to the Sox in the 11th.

Got it, thanks.

I can't access MLB's Draft Tracker at work, so if you see any others go off the board, please post them here and I'll add them to the top.

Are you going to add LeMahieu and Kentrail? Any 07 AFLAC players go to a J.C. and draft eligible?

No, this is just for the 2008 crop. We did previous years already.

Re: Official AFLAC Signing Thread

I must say, looking at that list quietly shows that this AFLAC draft class is actually stronger overall than the past.

A majority of the players have gone top 8 rounds or better.

I thought the exact same thing, 8 first round picks and a first round supplemental isn't bad at all.

Re: Official AFLAC Signing Thread

AFLAC usually = best juniors in the nation

Hopefully when the rosters were selected by whomever they were able to get most of the future 1st and 2nd rounders

I actually thought a few AFLAC players would go higher than where they went (but then again, the whole contract stuff obviously comes into play)
