Official Draft Discussion Thread (Rounds 1-4)

[PeaveyFury]

Wow.... they did go with Clement. Good for them.

[RyDogg66]

A little more info is needed Peavy, for those of us at work and w/ limited use of the internet.

[jmon482]

brewers go with ryan braun...

[PeaveyFury]

Braun it is...

[RyDogg66]

Ah, ok draftcaster is now working at mlb.com, so its all good.

 

Upton

Gordon

Clement

Zim

Braun

 

 

The Brew Crew took Braun. I dig it.

[scoop53714]

wow...braun it is...

 

i am a bit shocked they didnt take maybin...but...ok....start rakin' son.

[PeaveyFury]

Sorry guys... here you go.

 

AZ- Upton

KC- Gordon

Sea- Clement

Was- Zimmerman

Mil- Braun

Tor- Romero

[yoyomayoma]

I was hoping for Romero or Maybin. Oh well. Braun looks solid. We'll see.

[RyDogg66]

Maybin still there at 8, as Colorado took Tulowitzki.

[Rightomac13]

Upton AZ

Gordon KC

Clement SEA

Zimmerman WAS

Braun MIL

Romero TOR

Tulowitzki at 7..

[nikip43]

the MLB.com drafttracker is a lot faster than my internet radio connection

 

I found out about Zimmerman appx. 20 seconds before the radio said it. I don't know if that's because of a weak connection, but if you have dial-up you might consider checking it out for neatness and quickness

[scoop53714]

braun looks more than "solid" to me. BA had him ranked 2nd best college athlete. 4th best power and 3rd best speed. Thats a an offensive package. Defense is suspect but...that just takes work.

 

when do we pick again? 80something?

[yoyomayoma]

Wow. Townsend at 8, Pelfrey and 9. Maybin's still out there.

[RyDogg66]

If the Mets take maybin, and then dont trade him or Milledge for a #4 starter their OF could be really good in about 5 years.

 

Well they passed...

 

8. DRAYs - Townsend

9. Mets - Pelfrey

10. Tigers - Maybin (I bet they are thrilled)

[scoop53714]

the tigers have got to be doing backflips.

[clancyphile]

Don't think Maybin falls to the third.

[Rightomac13]

8. Wade Townsend TB

9. Michael Pelfrey NYM

10. Cameron Maybin DET

11. Andrew McCutchen PIT

[RyDogg66]

yeah draftcaster is awesome,

 

McCutchen and Bruce to 11 and 12, 3 HS OF in a row.

[RyDogg66]

White Sox take Lance "they say the neon lights are bright on" Broadway at 15. That should be an easy one for Berman.

[Rightomac13]

Hansen still available... possibly he can help in the playoffs... I really like this guy. We're at 19.

[clancyphile]

What's the scoop on Braun?

 

Pros, cons, what's the deal?

[RyDogg66]

Sox take Hansen at 26. The rich keep getting richer...just 4 more picks for them before our next one.

[Ando Calrissian]

At what number is the Brewers' next pick?

[SoCalBrewfan]

I think the Brewers' 3rd rounder is #85 overall.

[clancyphile]

Third round... I'd guess in the low-to-mid-70s.

 

And did anyone see the stuff on Braun? Had trouble with a wood bat in the Cape Cod league...

 

I'm beginning to wonder if the Crew isn't looking at a right-handed Antone Williamson.
