Oh and we just took Mac Marshall. Hell yes, love the risk even if there is a 1% chance of it happening.

 

There is the signability pick. He was who I wanted at 11-1. He's was 2nd best available on BA's list.

 

Round 21, Pick 616: Mac Marshall, LHP, Parkview HS, Lilburn, Georga

 

Round 22, Pick 646: Bryan Muniz, 1B, Southeastern (Florida)
Round 23, Pick 676: Ryan Thompson, RHP, Campbell

Round 25, Pick 736: Zach Davis, LHP, Central Missouri

 

Round 26, Pick 766: Mott Hyde, 2B, Georgia Tech

 

Who are all these college nobodies? 4 high school players in 25 rounds? Are we trying to restock our minor league system with depth?
