    My prediction is Josh Sale at #8, Delino DeShields Jr. at #19, and Luke Jackson at #33. If DeShields Jr. is gone I think they will draft Michael Kvasnicka at #19 and Reggie Golden at #33.

    So they pack 49 rounds into the last 2 days? Wow, that's crazy!

    Really hoping it's Sale instead of Deshields at 8.

    Just watching Bud Selig makes me sick. He is terrible.

    Same -- I'd prefer a power bat.

    The fake anemic cheering section when Selig announces the pick is really getting on my nerves.

    saw something earlier today on twitter that said it sounds like Delino DeShields Jr. was promised to be picked in the top 10. I wonder if that promise came from the Astros.

    A corner outfielder or first baseman should be higher on the list but baseball picks are always a crap shoot...

    Agreed. I don't see why we would draft another speedy centerfielder with no pop. I think that would be one wasteful pick. I haven't even seen him selected in the first round of most mocks that I have looked at. We need pop and pitching.....

    mattj just tweeted that his LSU sources say that Delino DeShields Jr. will not sign. He wants to play baseball and football at LSU.

    then "Let me rephrase... Deshields Jr...will be difficult sign...."

    Is anyone else surprised that Loux went at 6? At least that opens the door for Sale or Cox to us.......
