Are Tim and Gordon Beckham related or something? This would make for a great story if they get picked close to each other.

There are some awesome baseball names in this group. "Aaron Crow", "Buster Posey", "Shooter Hunt".

Lots of Bretts in the draft.

There's even a Yonder.

And another Josh Fields.
