Fellow Ranger fans:

We have four picks in the mock draft- 12, 88, 118, and 148. No second-rounder.

With pitching always a need, and a draft heavy on college arms, taking a pitcher in the first round seems like a good choice, but the farm is also pretty light on high-ceiling outfield talent. I'm generally a "take the best player available" guy, regardless of position.

I'm also thinking that no second-round pick might free Texas up to take a player or two with some signability questions. Given that Jon Daniels is not afraid to deal with Boras, targeting one or more of his clients might not be a bad idea.

All opinions and input welcome, particularly first-hand player observations!
