NFA Brian is making a joyful noise over Josh Bell hoping we grab him.
Everyone else is suggesting it's gonna be Alex Meyer.

So then how is he "Committed?" Obviously it's not that big of a commitment if he can just not do it.

It just means that's where he will go to college unless he signs a pro contract. It's like the LoI in football.

Hurry the hell up, I want to hit the grocer mart before the game.

If we hadn't taken Rendon I would have liked Wong but it wouldn't make sense to take him now

LOL, Gammons "I got a call at 5am saying it would be Wong"

PANatsFan · « **Reply #432 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:06:01 pm »

We need Baerga 2.0

Nathan · « **Reply #433 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:06:25 pm »

So guys, what's the pick?

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #438 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:06:45 pm »

I'd be stunned if this wasn't Alex Meyer here but there are quite a few great options out there.

Kevrock · « **Reply #439 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:06:49 pm »

Lots of talent still on the board.

IDK, we could have a couple of these guys higher on our board. Mahtook, Norris, Guerrieri. Lots of smoke with Meyer though. I'm fine with him at 23.

houston-nat · « **Reply #442 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:07:36 pm »

Okay, I'm going to bed after this pick. I can't afford to stay up another 44 minutes to see if we get Jackie Bradley Jr. It's already 2:10 AM

Harper with a bomb, as well!

Go former 1st round picks!

Not sure about Mahtook. Kind of an unknown to me. I would like Guerrieri big time

Something about seeing a players name next to the team logo, in the teams color, is so satisfying to me.

Prolly We is though Grub Kitty is still open. Wegmans opened the other day but it's a 15 minute drive. Apparently they were absolutely PACKED for the opening.

The last time Mike Rizzo drafted a RHP from Kentucky, his name was "Brandon Webb"

Especially when that name is Rendon!

Hey, a kid who went to Lawrence got drafted... we play them in sports. I'll ask some kids about him on our team.
