surprise

Bianchi to royals, a surprise. Godo athlete, will need time to develop.

A's

I got a feeling on Brian Matusz.

Red Sox got great value on Lowrie, can totally see him in fenway in two years. WOw, Sox have a nice little draft.

by ohad on Jun 7, 2005 2:20 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Any explanation why Bryan Morris is still there?

I have not seen reports of outrageous bonus demands and I believe his college choice is a CC so it provides flexibility

Whaaaaaaaaa????

Italiano to the A's???

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

I'M STUNNED

They DID take a high school pitcher.....

by ohad on Jun 7, 2005 2:23 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Wow

Italiano seems like the antithesis to Moneyball

by mtk52983 on Jun 7, 2005 2:23 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

re

Italiano is a Moneyball pick. His talent is well above this position. Exploiting the injury market, maybe that's the next big thing.

Most of you would disagree...

well...

I think Oakland noticed what I noticed, this draft is much deeper in high school talent than it is in college talent.

Julian de Lavalle

by jdelavalle on Jun 7, 2005 2:38 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

I guess

MLB teams agree with me: College pitchign was few and far between. Even the A's (like me) took two HS pitchers so far.

by murraygd13 on Jun 7, 2005 2:44 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

what about..

Bryan Morris? The only reason I can think of him dropping is due to him wanting to play 1 year for his father. But even then they could sign him later as a draft and follow. He was one of the better prep pitchers with a great curve.

by hybrid on Jun 7, 2005 2:45 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

hybrid

I agree. I am hoping he falls to a team like the Mets who lack the 2nd and 3rd Round picks so they could work out a deal

by mtk52983 on Jun 7, 2005 2:46 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

yeah...

I was hoping the Rays could snap him up, but evidently our baseball people are to smart for that ....

by hybrid on Jun 7, 2005 2:48 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

so who takes Danks?

and try to lure him away from college w/ the big bucks

by SoCalSoxFan on Jun 7, 2005 2:49 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

re

The Astros and Rangers are the only two who should think about taking Danks. I guess the Yankees too, if they want to give him a megabonus.

by bootsy on Jun 7, 2005 2:51 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

So when does the Supplemental 2nd Round start
