I love the Rays draft. Never thought Sale would be there, then O'Connor? Nice. Then Vettleson? Great.

Very happy with the four pitchers the Jays grabbed. Law is very high on Sanchez. I expect some bats tomorrow.

Rays, Sox, and Jays all have good first days. The East really is a beast.

Re: OFFICIAL DRAFT DAY THREAD - Day 1 Over

I never in my life have been so busy listing, selling, sending invoices, getting paypal money and packing cards. Still some good USA players to be drafted so it will continue a while and I still have about 70 auctions running with some big money possible.

Cripes, I haven't had time to list most of my Bryce Brentz cards.

My Machado pile is making me a bunch of money for sure.

Back to work.

Kellin Deglan and the Rangers have already agreed on a contract.

Yanks for worst team in the Draft? I say yes.


At first glance, maybe. Yet you can never count out a player that a team gets to see as much as they want. Obviously they saw something in the kid, there were plenty of players on the board that were ranked higher and had a better track record, but I am sure the Yankees saw a ton of this kid and liked him a lot to use their first round pick on him. Lets just hope what they saw was correct.

No Cubs.... Unless they have a huge suprise of a player like Tim Tebow you cant make sense of that pick.

Re: OFFICIAL DRAFT DAY THREAD - Day 1 Over

Very pleased to see the Tigers get Castellanos with the pick! I am very excited about the Jays day 1.... Happy with Deck as the #1 pick, would have liked Grandal but it's all good.

Sanchez & Wojciechowski are the "icing on the cake!".

I sure as hell hope so. We could have had Tago for crying out loud. :benson:

Re: OFFICIAL DRAFT DAY THREAD - Welcome to Day 2

Day 2 officially begins in 10 minutes.

I hope my Rays can take Allie and LaMarre.

Mets choose Matt Harvey

fracking mets

Hes no good?
He's VERY good!
TBP's is just upset that he's a Boras agent, which we all know how much of a headache that is.
Harvey is top notch though.
He's got 4 stellar pitches and is a work horse.
I would have been happy with him at #3. ;)
