Beau Mills, so were both wrong, ha. Kid is insane with the bat.

I'm thinking Texas is loving the way this draft has gone so far. They still have Beaven, Harvey, and Porcello left for them still.

Ahrens to the Braves is my well respected opinion. The Braves really like big bats because of the spaceous gaps at Turner Field. He's got plus bat speed and a great work ethic. He shouldn't have trouble adjusting to using a wood bat.

I love this pick. Just another reason why the Braves are consistent winners at the Major League level.

Great pick for the Bravos. Was hoping they would take Smoker to leave better picks for the Cards, but oh well.

I hope the Cards take Brackman.. That is a bust waiting to happen.

The ban request has just been filed.

No, but seriously if Porcello is there and they don't pick them, I may cry. Although I wouldn't mind taking Brackman @ #36.

If the Cards are too cheap for Porcello would you mind Beavan?

I would rather have Beavan then all the College pitchers taken already. (Besides Price obviously.)

As I type this Ahrens go, so a better chance for a HS righty pitcher. To tell you the truth I wouldn't mind any of Porcello, Harvey, Beaven, Main, and thats how I rank them.

Oh, if the Cards select a college pitcher I will cry.

Edit- Although I think Beaven is going right here to the Rangers since he is from Texas.

Whoever picks Pete Kozma is gonna be getting a very good prospect with great plate discipline and outstanding defensive potential.

(If the Cards even pick Borbon or Schmidt, or anyone other than Porcello.)

This terrible, Kozma is an average player around the board.

Imagine if Texas walks away with Porcello & Beavan.

That would be robbery.

I could definitely see a HS pitcher going here, since the Dodgers love HS pitchers and Scott Elbert is supposedly down for a while now.
