I'd say so... 
I'm very surprised he hasn't been drafted yet.
They must all know something we dont...

Sigh, not all that impressed with this pick, was hoping for Melville:
3-4 with a 3.65 and 2 saves for Rice. Big guy hope it works out.

Right, and since he hasn't been touched yet it is a good indication that teams are unwilling to pay (especially since the Yankees didn't take him in the supplemental). He is headed to college without a doubt in my mind.

Hopefully with the 64th pick, we get Scheppers or Melville (and play way over slot).
JP, any info on Holt?
98 BRAD HOLT, RHP, UNC Wilmington
Holt emerged this spring as the ace of a surging Seahawks baseball team. His fastball has improved since arriving in Wilmington and now sits between 92-94 mph, touching 96. Not only does he have a big arm, but he is able to maintain his velocity deep into games. However, the major difference between this year's Holt from the past is his vastly improved command. Holt at 6-foot-4, 195 pounds, has a perfect pro body with a clean delivery and a first-round arm. He is coordinated and athletic on the mound, attacking hitters with his fastball. The only thing holding him back is the lack of a usable secondary pitch. He offers a slider with loose spin and tends to slow his body and arm down when throwing it. Even though his secondary stuff is in need of refinement, teams will not walk away from the pro body, strong arm and life on the fastball.
Still not picked...Interesting....
Anyone have any idea who the Braves will take with their first pick?

Let's hope it is the yanks I am already pissed about Shooter.
I just hope the Rays don't waste their 2nd round pick. I wouldn't mind them taking Hood, Raben or Galloway.
So Jeremy Bleich is a reliever who throws in the 80's?
Any good info on this guy?

Yeah. Cole seems pretty good but I heard he is obnoxious and gets very angry on the mound. Lets pray for Shooter Hunt, Tim Melville, or Brett Devall.
Also, I know he isn't supposed to go soon but I think Jack Armstrong would be a very good pick.
