NL Cy Young Winner is...................

Hindsight is always 20/20, but it's interesting to look back at the 2006 draft at the players that other teams drafted ahead of Tim Lincecum.

1) Luke Hochevar (Royals)
2) Greg Reynolds (Rockies)
3) Evan Longoria (Rays)
4) Brad Lincoln (Pirates)
5) Brandon Morrow (Mariners)
6) Andrew Miller (Tigers)
7) Clayton Kershaw (Dodgers)
8) Drew Stubbs (Reds)
9) Bill Rowell (Orioles)
10) Tim Lincecum (Giants)

Uh oh... rockiesfan4ever might get the razors back out after realizing the Rockies could have drafted Lincecum!

well the rays did get that third basemen guy...he isn't too bad

The Giants must be hitting themselves now that they see they could've gotten a player with some value, like Bill Rowell.

The Giants couldn't have gotten Bill Rowell.

At least make a funny joke.

HGM said you were not funny, and you said that was not funny. Therefore, if you threw it at him, two "not funnies" would cancel each other out and it would be funny. Just like a double negative.

This stuff is always interesting to look back on, but with baseball it is obviously tough to blame a whole lot on some of the teams especially with what we know now. Looking at NBA or NFL drafts, since there is less players to draft total, it is so much easier to say, "What the hell were they thinking!"

Does anybody think any of these guys will end up anything in the majors besides Lincecum, Kershaw, Longoria, and I suppose Morrow. Some of the other guys I have totally forgotten about.

stubbs ;)

There are cases where you can definitely blame the team. For example, the Rockies taking Greg Reynolds. Nobody rated him that highly. It was a pure signability pick. I'm sure they'd much rather have spent the extra couple million to get Lincecum at this point.

Haha true. I forgot who the hell Drew Stubbs was Jeffy and found out he was born the day before me the very same year but in Texas. Go Stubbs!
