OFFICIAL 2012 DRAFT DISCUSSION THREAD

[Brett Keith]

There we go! Getting Correa and McCullers, that's solid.

 

[Jaypers]

The Astros officially have the best draft so far. Nice pick with McCullers. Hope they have enough for him.

 

[Jaypers]

And there goes my boy Pierce Johnson to the Cubbies. Works for me. Wish he had some cards.

 

[NECpilgrims8]

Waiting to see these guys now....

Tom Murphy
Nelson Rodriguez
Fernelys Sanchez

 

[Messier2]

Matty Olson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah!

 

[tm decomposer]

The Mets suck. What a terrible start to the draft.

 

[TBTwinsFan]

I have a Winker auto somewhere...

 

[padremurph]

Really wish the Padres got Gallo in the comp. Instead we have another pitcher and a low ceiling college OF.

 

[Jaypers]

Smoral to the Jays. Very risky pick, but worth it if his foot heals sooner than later.

 

[rookieaddict]

Cardinals draft has me perplexed. Thank God Taveras is putting up numbers tonight to take my mind off it. 5-5, HR and a double.

Perfect example of why selling on draft day can be hit or miss:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-2-2010-...0894126224?pt=US_Baseball&hash=item4166983890

Ebay being flooded with hundreds of USA cards of players that are obscure to common baseball fans doesn't result in solid sales, unless your drafted near the top or by a large market team.

 

[sheetskout]

Satisfied here. We needed the offense.

No Nolan Fontana, Kenny Diekroeger yet....

 

[Brett Keith]

Well damn, O'Brien is gonna have to wait another day.

 

[Superfractor]

Well damn, O'Brien is gonna have to wait another day.

You expect to take a loss?

 

[Jaypers]

Astros had the best draft tonight, but the Blue Jays were close behind.

 

[Brett Keith]

You expect to take a loss?

Oh, no. I got it for a good price, and if I think I'd do better by holding till he gets playing, I'll do that. He'll have to suck for me to take a loss, I think. I'm just shocked he wasn't picked. I know he had only recently come back from the injury and wasn't 100%, but he's got big upside and a good track record, and should be an easy sign because he's a senior.

 

[mwashuc06]

Look at Purke. Be afraid. Be very afraid....

Purke injury is his shoulder not his elbow, shoulders are much worse.

 

[mwashuc06]

Marrero and Iglesias. Huh.

Jose Vinicio is the best SS out of the three. Iglesias will be dealt I think and Marrero is a utility guy.

 

[vwnut13]

How about Nolan Fontana to the Rays!

(that's what my Bowman Platinum Mahtook/Fontana dual auto wants)

One bad season won't hurt Marrero. He raked in the Cape last year and can field. Vinicio is a long ways away, buddy.
