Default Re: Excuse me while I throw up a little bit....

Yesterday, because we lost both Els and Salty (Granted one we figured would leave, one we didn't really want back all that much), we were given two number one draft picks (the Marlins and a supplemental first rounder from MLB as the Yankees had already given theirs to Atlanta for McCann.). We have a twenty-two year old replacement in Jackie Bradley, Jr., who will play center field for us for at least the next six years during his prime. Our two best positional prospects are both catchers (although we are ranked second by Baseball America in farm systems because of the amount of pitching depth we have in the minors). The irony is that most baseball fans will react by saying "the rich got richer here," meaning the Yankees, when it is actually the Red Sox, who always draft well, who now have three first round picks in what is perhaps the deepest draft in seven years in 2014, and who come into that draft with an incredibly stocked farm system already.
