I cant believe the yanks pass melville up in the 3rd round for some slow 2b who cant hit. It makes no sense.

Yet again brad, perhaps the Yankees know more than you.

I hope so, but the 2B they drafted they say has no speed and projects at best to .270 with 10-15HR, I would rather have Melville, I dont think many would disagree.
Just because they draft him doesn't mean they get him.

Duh, but I would rather have a chance at Melville than a league average second baseman.

The Royals are having a great draft Hosmer, Montgomery, Melville, and that 6'7 Pitcher from Colorado.

Yeah, but I doubt they're going to pay Melville the first round money he wants. He is undoubtedly UNC bound.

why would they draft him, if they weren't prepared to make him an offer close to what he was asking?

I was wondering where he would go. If not for the injury, it might have been a round sooner.

i dont know Glass has been letting Moore do alot more (spending wise) then Baird. I think Moore might make him a pretty good offer im not sure what part of Missouri he is from but he also might be a local kid.
