I know a good deal about some of this players, others I am pretty well clue-less... but I guess the surprise of the entire list is that Ian Gac is not on it. I would be an idiot to disagree with the first pick. Anybody would be. The top ten are definitely solid... Tommy Hunter, Duran, and Borbon are others I agree with... I do not know enough about the rest to have an opinion. I know Smoak and Ross are the top two picks in this years draft... I guess you have to have them in the top 20, by default if for no other reason.

Jamey puts together a report signing at the end of the year... all I ask for is to have BEAVAN there. I would LOVE to have that dude's autograph.
