Jordan4life_2007 Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 6, 2011 -> 08:01 PM) Beede is going to be expensive. I like him though. Nice pick. Yeah, I've heard in other drafts he's a top 10 pick. But Toronto will spend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 Wong? Wow. I don't like him at all. He's got the physique of a 12 year old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing either him or Swihart (they desperately need some catching). Edit: They still could go with either or even both before this round is over.

Barnes fell significantly into Boston's lap. Swihart would be taken already too if he wasn't asking for the moon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baseball America has him at number 17. I don't disagree. He might not stick at catcher, but the bat will play if he needs a transition.

Yeah, they're weak at the catching position. The solution is to draft a catcher out of high school...collect underpants...wait 5-6 years...and profit! Drafting High Schoolers based on filling a need?

He's a first round talent. At worse early supplemental. And that's only because of his asking price. Somebody was going to take him. If Boston had only one pick this round and had taken him instead of Barnes then that's one thing. Edited June 7, 2011 by Jordan4life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
