I liked the mock draft that I read which showed the Mets picking Ruben Sierra Jr. with their 2nd pick (3rd round). At least I’ve heard of him, sort of.

I wish this draft was last night, or tonight was an off night…
Thanks for the link though. That feed is actually about 4-5 seconds ahead of my cable feed showing the MLB network.

well he still has only 4 HR. He’s on pace for around 15 this season…
but then again i’d rather have him bat .320 20-25 HR and 120 RBI than .300 30-35 HR and 120 RBI.

“Our” pick is up next, I wonder if the Angels will pick Beltran’s relative as some pundits have suggested.

Umm, this draft is 50 rounds long. Are we really going to do this log for the whole thing?
