Its time to show the baseball world that your skills are not being appreciated, in fact being vastly underrated. Its time show people that just b/c you sit in a basement wearing a bathrobe and boxers, that you still know your baseball.
Its time to turn your dream of being a scout, into a reality.
Well sorta, actually no..not really…its more like who can get lucky and predict who the Cards are going to take.
Today is a first 3 rounds, so in your best Jeff Luhnow voice, give me your selections for the following picks
#19/#67/#98
No official award will be given, but make no mistake…if you come out on top today, your legacy will live on, not only in your own mind but in the minds of your fellow guessers!

Here is my 1st 3 round prediction for the Cards:
#19 – Purke
#67 – Nick Franklin – SS (doubt he makes it here but who knows)
#98 – Kendal Volz (I like him alot for a 3rd Round selection)
#19 A.J. Pollock
#67 Matt Bashore
#98 Brian Goodwin
2 safe college players and then take a tough sign HS’er
PS..I hope I am wrong.
#19 – Matthew Purke, LHP
#67 – Randall Grichuk, OF
#98 – Robbie Shields, SS
Mine is very unaggressive.
#19- Mike Minor
#67- Randal Grichuk
#98- Robbie Shields
#19 – Jacob Turner
#67 – Grichuk
#98 – Don’t know. My HVPG knowledge is not this vast.
19 – Chad James, LHP
67 – Tommy Mendonca, 3B
98 – Kyle Gibson, RHP
If Gibson falls to the 3rd round I will crap my pants!
That’s my dream scenario, which of course means it will never happen.
19. Pollock
67. Grichuk
98. Justin Marks
I’ll probably go 0-3. I could see Phegley in round 2 if Grichuk happens to be gone.
James
Phegley
___ (insert a HS that falls this far due to signability. Know that’s not the M.O., but hoping it happens.)
Purke
Grichuk
Ryan Berry
Like erik, I too will probably go 0-3.
check that … i’ll got with Grichuk over Phegley in the second round. forgot we were #67 and I think there is another team that thinks he can stick at C before #67
If the Cardinals draft anything like me in fantasy baseball, they’ll take Luis Gonzalez, Jose DeLeon, and Brett Favre.
I’m that bad.
BA is reporting that first 8 picks are all but certain:
1. Nationals: San Diego State righthander Stephen Strasburg.
2. Mariners: North Carolina first baseman Dustin Ackley.
3. Padres: Georgia HS outfielder Donavan Tate.
4. Pirates: Boston College catcher Tony Sanchez.
5. Orioles: California HS righthander Matt Hobgood.
6. Giants: Georgia HS righthander Zack Wheeler.
7. Braves: Vanderbilt lefthander Mike Minor.
8. Reds: North Carolina righhander Alex White.
How about:
19- Trout
67- Dwyer
98 – Berglund
