[kobayashi]

Is this a good year for draft in Tennessee? HS and college players ,who is projected to go high

[Ball]

Brett Basham-Ole Miss

Lance Mclain- Cumberland

Tony Delmonico- Florida State

Cody Hawn & Kyle Koenoman - Walter State

Chad Bell -Walter State

Harrison Eldridge - East Carolina

Nate Hall

It would be a shame if Harrison Elfdridge was not drafted, What else does he have to prove. Sometimes you have to throw size out the window

Will Ramsey from Farragut get Drafted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Corey Kemp - 2004 Centennial graduate - East Carolina University

[ut18vols]

Brett Basham-Ole Miss

Lance Mclain- Cumberland

Tony Delmonico- Florida State

Cody Hawn & Kyle Koenoman - Walter State

Will Sonny Gray get drafted or is he sticking with going to Vandy

[MaryvilleRebels]

Gray is going to Vandy.

 

Both Corban Joseph and Seth Lintz were drafted. Lintz in the 2nd and Corban in the 5th, iirc. Both players should be going pro instead of attending the University of Kentucky.

 

Also, I am not sure when Brett Basham will get drafted, but I don't think it is very high. He is a very poor hitting catcher. His arm alone will not get him very far in the majors.

FYI. Only 6 rounds were completed yesterday.

Somebody help me out here. I play for Collierville and noticed that a player named Alvin Rittman from Germantown was drafted in the 46th round by Seattle. This surprised me because Germantown's centerfield is Mike Faulkner and has been for the last 2 years and i didn't even kno this Alvin kid was on the team. i checked their website and he was on the roster and was in the stats with 5 plate appearances. i guess my question is how this kid gets drafted when he doesnt even play for his highschool team? especially with players like drew martinez, jacob wilson, and heath hatfield going undrafted

My guess is he was drafted because he may be related to a player the Mariners drafted a few years back?

If you listen to the draft (XM carried it live) you will hear a lot of picks late that mention relationships and other comments concerning their picks. Some great examples: Familiar names dot '08 Draft board

i guess you're right, that what i was thinking because i know they do favors with picks in the late rounds such as Mike Piazza. i guess i just figured they wouldn't do a favor and draft a kid that didn't even play.
