Draft Thoughts
Sounds like a questionable draft by the Mets. Prospectus's Kevin Goldstein said "After Mulvey, who's anything but a sure thing, it's yuck with an extra side of yuck." Kevin Mulvey does sound like a decent pick, but sidearm pitchers generally have a limited upside, so it seems like a stretch to take one with a 3rd round pick. Who knows, maybe he'll be the next Quisenberry. Jeremy Barfield in the 9th round sounds good.

The award for the two best draft picks goes to the Brewers, who took a high schooler who throws 100 mph with the 16th pick and with their second round pick took Brent Brewer. His name is Brewer! And he's on the Brewers! I'm easily amused.
