brian - have you heard anything about the other bradley - the center fielder?
that spot has been a mess for years. having someone with low bust potential who can contribute there relatively quickly would be nice.
We should have drafted Brett Eibner last year instead of Sammy Solis.... Brett Eibner as a junior tied for second in the SEC in home runs with 22, hit .333 with an OBP around .450, and would have had even gaudier stats if not for the fact he was a weekend starter at pitcher. Oh yeah, he also was a plus glove in CF and I think he either was 2nd team All-SEC defensively or atleast an honorable mention. He would have been drafted higher but his whole life coaches have tried to put his 95 MPH fast ball at pitcher. Imagine if the guy spent his whole life practicing hitting instead of pitching.
The Royals drafted him a couple picks after we took Solis and flat out said he's a hitter.
Now he is currently the #10 prospect in the ROYALS organization, is getting rave reviews as maybe the best
athlete in their system, and homered in his first professional at bat. Should be majors ready soon, but he may be blocked early in that system.
Good job Nationals!!!
