[Sully]

Loved the Alvarez pick. Had him as the fourth best hitter overall.

I liked him as well.

Can someone post the last five and the next five? Phone doesn't load the utility.

Thanks LC.

[Jake]

I'm here guys. Doing a little talking before I move on the pick. Give me a few seconds.

[Jistic]

I almost took Bright at 16, but I had to go with best available.

[BradZ]

I can't believe Bright stayed on the board that long.

I kept saying that after every pick after the top 10.

New Orleans selects 18-year-old 3B Dave Farmer from Arab, Alabama.

Tough decision between a few players here. Our crack scouting staff thinks Farmer is one of several 6-rated contact bats in the draft, in addition to being an above average fielder and runner. We were also intrigued by his nearly complete lack of intangibles other than greed.

....I hate drafting high school kids.

He's been on our shortlist for a while now. He obviously has the potential. Its the drive that's worrisome about with this kid.

I agree on the HS thing.

Hundai selects Victor Alvarez - C

Maine autoselected and took Hector Barrera - SS

[liquidcrash]

Bright was #1 on my board for the last few picks.

He'd been #1 on my board since you took DuFour. I really wanted to get back into the first round and pick him.

I wouldn't have been surprised had he been picked in the top 10-15 picks.

[Clay]

Hyundai is on the clock.

The Colonials use the pick from Carolina in the Rod Phillips deal to get the kid we think can be our Catcher of the future in Rice's Johnny Davis. Like a lot about this kid.

[Clay]

Pick is in.

Clay, you're back on the clock.

SHit! I picked between Bright and Heath and thought I'd get both. Good pick. Mr Perfect!

[Dave]

I can't believe Bright stayed on the board that long.

Me neither.
