Nope.

Sox skipped Melville too

Hmm...Melville must've really taken a tumble on the draft boards.

45 mins until Round 2. Time to chill out for a while.

I was thinking we'd see mellville and Issac Galloway go already, was also hoping Destin Hood would've gotten taken even though he wasn't ranked that high, looks like he is going to Bama

Nope.

at least the Sox didn't get him, maybe he has teams so scared off, we can get him in the 2nd round that would be a HUGE steal.

The Giants have added some much needed bats to their system, assuming they'll sign them which I think they will. With the #5 and #37 overall selections the Giants picked up BA's #4, Buster Posey, and #23, Conor Gillaspie, top rated draft prospects. Great draft so far.

Probably the true reason the Royals are passing on him, that and Dayton Moore loves high school players so they "Fully develop at every level" in the minor leagues. Hosmer from what I've heard is asking for around $7 million. He is good pick for the Royals filling an orginazational need, but it will be 2011 - 2013 before he maes it pro. Catcher seems filled for at least two more years between Buck and Olivo. With the copmensation pick for David Riske at #36 I would look for them to go for LHP Mike Montgomery, or C/IF Brett Lawrie

Called it

Who'd the red sox pick and how is he?
