It looks as if Giolito is done for the season with a sprained ligament in his elbow but no surgery needed at this time.

What do you think this does for the hopeful #1 pick in the draft:
A. Does he still end up being a 1st round pick & somebody later in the first throws a bunch of money at him to sign?
B. Does he drop out of sight from the draft & goes to college?
C. Does he drop out of the first but still ends up signing with someone who pays overslot?
This is certainly a blow as I was expecting the Astros to take a long, hard look at taking Giolito with pick 1.1. With Appel's results being so-so, who becomes the odds on favorite to become pick 1 in the draft? Zunino? Buxton? Marrero?
