Callis just out with a new mock that makes a mess of everything
Top 10 is Harper-Taillon-Machado-C.Sale-Choice-Pomeranz-Cox-J.Sale-Whitson-O’Conner. This is really out of synch with Piliere’s information over the last two days that everybody seems to have accepted as gospel. We’ll see how had the better info/hunch.
"Rollins helps them with the small ball when he's not in the lineup." - Joe Morgan
same with Frankie P
he still thinks grandal at 4 as well, but notes the agent is shaking things up. all on his twitter account. He also suggests the backup plan may be … Asher? At 4? If that happens … whoa.
I agree, I would liken the MLB Draft to Christmas
But the NFL Draft to Hanukkah. And the NHL draft to Arbor Day
You’re name has 2k9 in it — what are you some 8 year-old who makes Pillsbury Doughboy cookies and jerks off to that bullshit video game with Tim Lincecum on the cover--

Speaking of Grandal, Frank Piliere says that the Indians have topped Kc’s offer: http://mlb.fanhouse.com/2010/06/05/draft-buzz-top-15-clearing-up/?sms_ss=twitter
Tony Wolters
Multiple sources reporting that Tony Wolters could go in the late first-early supplemental round.
I REALLY like Wolters. Very nice bat and should be a very capable middle infielder. Would be an especially good choice for a team with multiple early picks.
Random Note Only Interesting To Me: In the Minor League Ball Mock Draft, I had picks 18, 29, 30, 37, and 40. With those picks, I took players that are ranked 15, 22, 23, 41, and 38 respectively in BA’s final rankings. Solid haul value-wise.
Already thanked Andy Seiler
and wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for your hard work, John.
Thank Jeri
We all know that John is just a puppet leader for the true power behind this website

Diamondbacks
Frankie Piliere just said that the Diamondbacks are inclined to take Barret Loux over Drew Pomeranz, but not Chris Sale.
If the Indians do end up taking Chris Sale . . .madness!
Keith Law
Says the Royals are taking Sale.
My Guys: Gillies, Pacheco, Drabek, Verlander, Ozuna, A Salcedo, S Rodriguez, and others.
Goldstein and Mayo still have Grandal
KG did throw out a rumor of them going with a cheap college bat (who I think is Brentz) which would enable them to throw more money around in later rounds.
quite frankly, that might make sense. if your grading a whole bunch of guys around the same, it makes sense to take the cheap guy. this year sucks ass to pick #4.
baseball rules.
