I am happy you made the pick and weren't autodrafted.

Well where I work overnights I sleep anywhere from 2-9:30.  Baez, the numbers!  Rendon, injury concerns with the ankle and the shoulder.  Tough year to have the number 1 and 2.  I went with the crazy numbers, and his swing looked just as solid with a wooden bat.  Probably ends up at the CI, most likely 3B, which I need a CI badly.   Really young though, probably will take a few years.  And he was drafted by the Cubbies, makes me also cautious...but the numbers!
