I like the draft and thanks to Vlad for talking the game a bit and allowing me bounce ideas off him as well.

Round 1:(2) Tim Beckham SS Georgia High School

Round 2:(48) James Darnell 3b South Carolina

Round 3:(79) Nick Mardone LHP Kentucky High School

Round 4:(114)Austin DiCharry RHP Texas High School

Round 5:(144) Brandon Miller C Georgia High School

The lowest rated player in the Baseball America ratings was the final pick,Brandon Miller and he just missed the top 100 at 101.

Pirates Mock Draft

I am drafting for the Pirates again this year over at MinorLeagueBall.com and as I did last year,I am open to any thoughts and advice,both now and during the draft on Sunday.

Last year,Vlad was around to help me with the last pick of the draft,so if anyone has thoughts,wants to hang around during the draft with advice,just let me know.

Here is hoping for a better draft than the Littlefield versions!

Looking to how others are thinking for the Pirates draft.

I am returning as the Pirates director from last season and hope to improve on an average draft,yet that still appears to be better than the Littlefield and Creech version.

In Round one,I am leaning towards Pedro Alvarez or Tim Beckham,depending on the Tampa Bay choice,however I am open minded enough to listen to arguments for others.

Thanks for any ideas and interest!
