I signed up to take care of the Cardinals. I would appreciate any help that you guys would want to send my way. I know that I am not all that active in posting, but I read everything that I can about the minors. It has become a great hobby for me. But, I am always open to others' opinions. Thanks!

And I think the first question he answered was that no one has any clue on mock drafts until about a week before the draft.

He's going top ten, it really doesn't matter that Boras is his agent. Klaw was saying that Turner hit 98 in his last start. He’s going top ten, it really doesn’t matter that Boras is his agent.

Porcello was very rare as a fast moving HS pitcher.

That's close enough for me when there's better talent available on the draft board (see: Rasmus, Colby). They took Herron in the supp. 1st round in 2005, and Josh Wilson in the 2nd round.
