Draft Day

Cameron and i were able to catch bits and pieces of the draft today. Matt Wieters ended up going at number 5 to the Orioles and it seemed certain that we would get yet another pitcher. However, Walt went and grabbed a shortstop: Peter Kozma - a high schooler out of Owasso, Oklahoma. EPSN compared him to a very young Michael Young, but many have said he plays to be just an average player. He had a decent Senior year and is said to have above average speed.

2nd round: David Kopp RHP from Clemson
Jess Todd RHP from Arkansas

3rd round: Daniel Descaso 3B UC Davis (i think they were making a run to the CWS)

4th round: Kyle Russell OF from Texas
