[Cooper]

The Twins 1st round pick (25) is this guy....

Matt Garza

 

Have you ever seen such a tiny little head?

Inman is the first Brewers draft pick to be born in 1987.

[Bruce Ciskie]

Can anyone fill me in on who the Twins got at #80? I am on a crappy computer for the next hour that won't load MLB DraftCast.

 

Thanks. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Wow . . . nothing I love more than a HS righthander with delivery issues.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eyes.gif

 

Greg.

Andrew Thompson, SS, Jupiter, FL

[RyDogg66]

Twins took Andrew Thompson, HS SS.

 

Should we start the "Teagarden in the 4th" pleas now? Or will that just guarantee we pass on him again?

[markedman5]

twins took andrew thompson hs ss

"I think I'm on the wrong conference call."

 

The Wisconsin Tea Garden Party has only been postponed for another round....it must not be cancelled. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

 

Edit: Nooooooooooooooooooo! (Stupid Rangers!)

More on Inman is available in the official thread pinned to the top.

Texas still likes Boras . . . .

[SoCalBrewfan]

Teagarden to Texas.

[RyDogg66]

and Texas gets themselves a Tea garden. Oh well...

[pogokat]

teagarden at 99...i don't get excited about catchers

[And That]

Oakland with their third HS RHP in a row. Weird.

[dogs with bees in their mo]

It might just be that jacket Garza is wearing. He's no bucket-head or anything, but his head looks pretty normal sized in this pic.

O'Sullivan was another I was high on. He went to Anaheim at 103.

[SoCalBrewfan]

Angels with some interesting picks...Sean O'Sullivan was thought a 1st rounder at one point.

[YutakaEnatsu]

I heard that too... "I think I'm on the wrong conference call."

 

Lasorda: "...from Cal State Fullerton - that's where I live."

 

This is a kick, my first "live" draft.

[SoCalBrewfan]

Dodgers with a Moneyball pick in Pedroza? That's a lot higher than scouts would have him...he's not big or toolsy though he was the best bat for CSUF this year.

[Blazer25]

Wasted 3rd rounder...there were 20 HS pitchers better than the guy we took....

 

Jeremy Hellickson being one of them....garbage!http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/mad.gif

[RyDogg66]

At this point I am giving the scouts and farm directors the benefit of the doubt. Although Eric Thomas and Nic Carter stunk pretty bad, as well as former 3rd rd. John Steitz.

[jschris]

So who is everyone's top choice for #115?

[RyDogg66]

I think all of the players I am familiar with are off the board...so just stay away from HS RHP in rounds 3-9 and I'll be relatively happy

[And That]

Well, Hellckson is still available.

[SoCalBrewfan]

Steitz and Thomas were pretty highly rated...

 

But it is definitely one of those Jack Z picks that make you go, huh? Some of those have worked out OK, but then there's, say, Josh Murray...
