Defense only shortstop who has finally decided to play baseball full-time. <br /><br />His bat is raw and you don't want raw out of a college player, especially at #30. Terrible pick even if it works out long term because he would have been there at #57.

Santos has held righties to a collective .555 OPS this year, though lefties have punished him with a .400/.409/.700 batting line.<br /><br />Rothschild can't wait to get his hands on this pitching hipster.<br /><br />Shake your money maker.....Connecticut Elf.patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00008211991899947734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-73919045615543592902015-06-09T08:20:05.096-04:002015-06-09T08:20:05.096-04:00Don't like the Holder pick at all especially w...Don't like the Holder pick at all especially when we need arms, but hey you have a minor league hitting coach running the draft along with a clown that wears and elf outfit so what do you expectKen Hanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08248552174229519871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-44548738620963593872015-06-09T07:00:59.546-04:002015-06-09T07:00:59.546-04:00I have seen him ranked as high as a #2 starter and...I have seen him ranked as high as a #2 starter and as low as a workhorse #5Daniel Burchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04212584396848733519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-62488467548171923452015-06-09T07:00:18.567-04:002015-06-09T07:00:18.567-04:00Aiken went 17 to Cleveland, one pick after we took...Aiken went 17 to Cleveland, one pick after we took Kaprielian Daniel Burchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04212584396848733519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-4243549901296313352015-06-08T22:28:11.578-04:002015-06-08T22:28:11.578-04:00SORRY....bad fact gathering on my part.
