Nimmo is undetermined... Fulmer is ++... Budgell is a head case... Montgomery arrived injured... Mathews is meh... Gsellman is meh 2.0... Evans already projects out only as a sub...

Fulme...Mack, their 2011 draft to me was fantastic. Fulmer looks to be a legit number three starter. Mazzoni could still end up at the back end of either a rotation or the bullpen; either way, that's a win. Verret and Pill give you AAAA starters who could stay in AAA at the worst hopefully and be ready in case of injury.<br /><br />Yes, we all would have picked so many other players ahead of Nimmo, but he has definately showed power and patience while playing with guys two or three years older in Brooklyn. Remember, that park isn't easy for lefties and he hit 5 hrs...Ike had none in his season in Brooklyn. <br /><br />I think Nimmo has been hurt by the two super talents and youngsters that made the bigs quickly in Harper and Trout. Now, fans want all the High schoolers to be fast tracked. Lets see what happens as this kid grows and gets stronger. This might be a big year for him.<br /><br />We all loved the Montgomary, Evans, and Marquez picks late, but so far they haven't really impressed. I'd give Evans more time; he was also playing with and against much older players. <br /><br />This draft was good. They seemed to have a plan. The players seemed to have potential. 2012??? Cecchini, Pawlecki, Reynolds...first three picks...wtf?!<br /><br />They obviously were going safe and for slot or less. <br /><br />Then Teddy gets picked....nice, a young lefty that is good and exciting. Could be one a steal. Then, they don't offer slot and he walks. Again WTF!<br /><br />This might be a huge bust, unless they get lucky in the next 4 years. I just don't get it.

Boyd doesn't seem to have the power to stick at first so I wonder why they even picked him. I guess some of the pitchers might turn out decent, but Nido has the only bat I can't wait to see develop.Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03520446193510393380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-49427638085102742013-01-10T15:54:51.069-05:002013-01-10T15:54:51.069-05:00It's too early to say anything about Boyd.
