There are a lot of players for every team that don’t see the majors until the 4th or 5th year, so a club like Baltimore that’s been tanking in recent years is probably going to fare better than what the chart shows in the coming years. I’d rather see the results from 15 years ago until 2019 or so, but thanks for showing this to us Acura. We can’t show what we don’t have. |

Thanks A-man and desousa for keeping us updated on the picks! Thanks kay and for A-man for picking up the ball after I disappeared. Had to drive down to Newton-Wellesley Hospital on Monday to see a new doctor. It was a brutal 2 1/2 hours of pouring rain. Vermont got hit really hard with flooding, but fortunately we live at the highest point of Burlington and had no flooding at all. Yesterday I was at the hospital and then drove home, so I lost touch with the draft. Not that I know anything, but I find it interesting. From what I got gather, the Yanks put all their eggs in the George Lombard Jr basket. I hope it's not one of those Cito Culver disasters when Cashman saw what no one else saw. Lombard Jr supposedly has the make up the Yankees love, but will it translate to the field? Many believe he won't stick at SS, but we could always use a 3rd baseman. The Yanks saved money with some of their later picks, just to be able to pay Lombard, so they must have had an agreement before the draft. Lombard is slated to attend Vanderbilt. The Yanks put such a premium on make up these days, so they believe with that added to Lombard's skill set, he worth their 1st round pick. He just turned 18, so he's basically the same age as SS Rodrick Arias, who was last years international huge signing. Don't lose hope w Cito. He is only 30 and doesn't have the MLB mileage! And he has the name!  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cito_Culver |

He was later diagnosed with bipolar disorder. By terms of the plea agreement, Culver can have no contact with his father… |

Not a bad deal when you consider the kid had a Vandy offer in his back pocket. |
