In case you missed it, the Pirates signed Louisiana high school right-hander Zach Von Rosenberg as a sixth round pick for $1.2 million. He was worthy of going in the supplemental first round on draft day, so this is further evidence that the Pirates are committed to building from within and will take signability risks. I picked him in the fifth round of the Twins Shadow Draft, and would certainly pay that price for him.
My main focus here for the next period of time is reviewing the Top 20 Prospect lists from pre-season and seeing how they look now. I will try to do two lists a day, though travel plans might delay that at times. I'm heading on another road trip this week, down to Tulsa and Oklahoma City. Tomorrow I will post list reviews for the Cardinals and Blue Jays.
