Is going on now!

Highlights??

 

[Dback Jon]

Just started - Dbacks haven't drafted yet

 

[GatorAZ]

Just started - Dbacks haven't drafted yet

Don't have a first round pick. If we did he'd be traded to Atlanta in 6 months.

 

[Dback Jon]

Yes we lost our first round pick to the Dodgers for Greinke

We do have a technical first-round pick up number 39

 

[unseenaz]

Can't wait to see the kid they are going to talk up then trade down the road citing "he wasn't gonna help us win now"

 

[Dback Jon]

#39 Anfernee Grier. OF Auburn

 

[Kel Varnsen]

Interesting. There are a lot of Shaquilles out there now, but this is the only Anfernee I've seen.

#39 Anfernee Grier. OF Auburn

Looks like a good pick, projected Top 40. Great Jr year at AUB, CF which we could use in the future.

Congrats to the two NMSU aggies that got drafted!

It's stupid that high first round draft picks aren't protected from FA signings at the same extent they used to be. Lousy teams shouldn't be punished for trying to improve themselves.

I believe up to a certain pick they are protected, Top 5 or Top 10 I believe.

 

[coyoteshockeyfan]

Top ten, used to be top 15, but the whole thing is far more convoluted now.
