Riley Green? :cry: Or Rece Hinds? SS CJ Abrams or Bobby Witt Jr.? Corbin Carroll, an outfielder from Lakeside in Tacoma? Jerrion Ealy? :cry: Just keep picking 'em from the high school rosters?

I have only seen college players in the Mocks that I've looked at. But who knows

One thing i found interesting with the draft now heing run a different way as a result of the collective bargaining agreement is that of the 15 picks between 16 and 30 last season, 10 of them were high school kids.

I dont think it means everything, but I would put my money on Dipoto taking a high school stud. I hope so anyways.

4 picks in the top 100, I just hope to God they don't take guys who are already relief pitchers with any of those picks.

I found this list of 100 top high school prospects for everyone to digest by draft time Monday. It's not the best functionally - if you have a good source, please post a link.

I was lucky enough to see #38, Carter Young, play for Selah this past season. Kid is a stud! He may be worth taking one of our picks on. He will be heading to Vanderbilt, so not sure if he would sign right away, but may be worth the effort!

As always please take the BPA! And as always, I hope that BPA is pitching. We have 4 picks in the Top 100.

Arizona has 7 in the Top 75!

The problem with taking HS athletes is the development time.
As we know the M's are not very good at developing players.
