And The #1 Pick Is...........

Tim Beckham, SS out of high school. He is projecting to be a .300 hitter with close to 25+ HRs at the big league level. Here's a mini-scouting report I found.

A bona fide five-tool player at a premium position, there's a reason why Beckham is at or near the top of Draft lists everywhere. He's got tools galore, with some idea of how to use them. He'll need to iron out some things mechanically and fundamentally, but he's got the ability and potential to hit, hit for power, steal bases and stay at shortstop at the big-league level.

Sounds like the Rays will not be slowing down anytime soon with all the talent they have. Keep on spending that money NY and Boston.

Anytime a SS is drafted, I love it. It is my favorite position inthe game.

I agree that the Rays are going to be a force for a long time coming. They have probably the best young talent in the whole league.
