#4. RHP Trevor Bauer - Not only does this kid remind me of Tim Lincecum but I felt I got him as a steal since I had him rated above Gerrit Cole.
#8. OF George Springer - Really wanted the Padres to take this kid as I love his athletism and plus you can't go wrong with a 5 tool player.
#12. SS Javier Baez - A very talented player who will probably move to 3rd in the pros but I drafted him for his bat.
#15. RHP Matt Barnes - I really liked this kid at UCONN and believe that he will be an ace some day.
#17. C/1B C.J. Cron - This kid can flat out hit. That's all I have to say.
#20. LHP Tyler Anderson - Tyler should get to the bigs quickly and has been compared to Andy Pettite.
#24. RHP Taylor Guerrieri - This high schooler can throw heat he's been lighting up the radar guns in South Carolina clocked as high as 97.
#28. LHP Sean Gilmartin - Another lefty I like. He went 12-2 with a 2.09 ERA at Florida State this year and was a big part in them getting to the Super Regionals. I expect that to continue in the bigs.
#29. OF Mike Mahtook - Considered as one of the best OFers in this years draft he can hit for average and has some pop but has speed to I expect him to be a 20-20 maybe 30-30 player.
#34. LHP Henry Owens - He has good command of his pitches and with his 94 mph fastball and Barry Zito like curveball he could be really good at the next level.
#39. OF Jackie Bradley Jr. - I really like Bradley early this year he was projected as a top 10 pick but after breaking his wrist he has fallen far but I expect the wrist to heal and him to be fine.
#46. RHP Joe Musgrove - Well the real reason why I picked this kid is cause he went to school 15 minutes away from my house. Plus he has already signed and the biggest thing to me is signability.
#50. SS Dante Bichette Jr. - Didn't relize this kid was in this years draft class as the last time I had heard of him was at the LLWS but I like this kid potetial just wish he wasn't a Yankee.
#52. RHP Micheal Fulmer - Another of the talented Oklahoma pitchers. This might be my most risky pick as I'm not sure about his signability.
#56. LHP Blake Snell - Picked him because I felt he was the best player on the board when I picked and I also picked him cause he has already signed.
#87. RHP Erik Johnson -Definately turning out as the year of the pitcher for my draft class but got this guy cause he has signed already and cause I really liked him at CAL and think he can continue his success with the White Sox.
#110. RHP Matt Andriese -I picked him because I like what he has done in the minors this year.
#119. RHP Nick Maronde -What a shock another pitcher. I made this pick because I feel this kid has alot of potential. Also he was signed and has been doing pretty good in the minors this year.
#126. 3B Matt Skole - I picked him because I really like his potential. The only problem I see is he's stuck behind Ryan Zimmerman right now.
#135. RHP Madison Hope - He was a teammate of Archie Bradley and I think he would have been an ace if it wasn't for Bradley.
Signed 20/20
