High school arms
Top names: A.J. Cole (RHP, Oveido HS, Fla.); Jameson Taillon (RHP, The Woodlands HS, Spring, Texas); Stetson Allie, (RHP/SS, St. Edward HS, Cleveland); Zach Lee (RHP, McKinney HS, Texas); Justin O'Connor (RHP/SS, Cowan HS, Ind.); Kevin Gausman (RHP, Grandview HS, Aurora, Colo.); Rudy Acosta (RHP, Mount Miguel HS, San Diego); Cam Bedrosian (RHP, East Coweta HS, Sharpsburg, Ga.).

Summary - College Bats : better this year with more legit SS and some good catchers, but not very many good outfielders.
College Arms : Promising group, Ranaudo is the highlight. Unlike most typical #1 pitchers he gets by with good command and deception on a solid-average FB.
High School Bats : Griffin is the highlight. A five tool OF (note : This article was written before Harper went in to Jr Col., he's obviously the highlight)
High School Arms : Cole is the highlight here, but this crop is full of more hard throwers than 2009.

I usually don't like to seriouly look at a draft until it's been over for about 3-4 years. So...let's talk about the 2006 amateur draft!

Jeffy, you might as well add Bryce Harper to your Nationals dynasty since he's going to make the Hall of Fame before he's 20.

I've actually put him down as MVP for the next 32 years

Isn't Ross Wilson from Alabama the QB from Two-A-Days on MTV?
