June 3, 200322 yr Jason, make this important. Please don't go making a bunch of threads about one pick, just throw them in here. By condensing it, it will make it a lot easier to see who the Sox picked. Draft is in 10 minutes, get ready!
June 3, 200322 yr according to BA.com the Rays announced that they were going to pick Dmitri Youngs little bro with the first pick.

June 3, 200322 yr Author Sox have probbaly picked, once I find out who, I'll let ya know. Anderson is on the board, as well as Snyder I think.
June 3, 200322 yr BRIAN ANDERSON U ARIZONA CF COMMENT: Five-tool palyer with Major League body. Quality bat potential. Feel for wood with light tower power. Agresssive in all areas of game with plus instincts. Plus arm, plus range.
June 3, 200322 yr BRIAN ANDERSON U ARIZONA CF COMMENT: Five-tool palyer with Major League body. Quality bat potential. Feel for wood with light tower power. Agresssive in all areas of game with plus instincts. Plus arm, plus range. Damn we need infield and catching prospects and we take an OF with our first pick. I guess this means we are planning on not having at least one of our OF's back soon.
June 3, 200322 yr Author Was Jeff Allison on the board when the Sox picked? if he was, I swear I'm going to explode.
June 3, 200322 yr Author GOD DAMNIT, ALLISON WAS ON THE BOARD. Quite possibly the best HS pitcher in the draft fell to us, and we picked a damn college outfielder. DAMNIT. JKLFSJKHKLASJLKJASKLJS
June 3, 200322 yr Was Jeff Allison on the board when the Sox picked? if he was, I swear I'm going to explode. I am sure he was. BA.com was saying that he had turned down about half a dozen offers of between $1.5 mil and $2 mil for a bonus because he wanted $3 mil. I would bet we passed on him.
June 3, 200322 yr Baseball America's breakdown... Brian Anderson, of School: U. of Arizona. Class: Jr. Hometown: Tucson. B-T: R-R. Ht.: 6-2. Wt.: 195. Birthdate: Mar. 11, 1982. Previously Drafted: Never drafted. Scouting Report: Anderson improved his draft worth as much as any player in the country. He was hardly on the radar at the start of the year after an injury-plagued 2002 season but now finds himself in the first round, possibly as high as the 15th pick. His numbers tell the whole story. A .275 hitter with five homers and six stolen bases in 2002, the 6-foot-3, 200-pounder jumped his average more than 100 points while tripling his home run and stolen base totals. He was the best everyday performer in the Pacific-10 Conference. Anderson worked closely with Wildcats coach Andy Lopez to revamp his swing and entire approach to hitting. The result has been better rhythm and better bat speed. All other parts of his game have come together as well. He's a solid center fielder with above average arm strength. Though he did not pitch this year after leading the Wildcats with four saves a year ago, his fastball was clocked as high as 94 mph. With his improved showing offensively this year, his performance has finally matched his considerable tools.
June 3, 200322 yr Anderson is a really good pick. I think you'll see the Sox go after catcher in the 3rd round. They may hit shortstop in the next round. Look for them to redraft Tony Ritchie out of Florida State.
June 3, 200322 yr Baseball America should have something like that as should teamonebaseball.com Teamone really kicks ass, only problem is I think the membership is like 200 bucks. I wish I had access to it though, they have reports on a ton of the players. I used Teamone last yaer to follow the draft. Tried to find out as much as I could about the players from the free stuff they offered. This year I got a BA membership so I'm trying to use that. Of course I got to get into work, but I'll be following it there too.
June 3, 200322 yr Oakland just selected Omar Quintanilla as the 3rd pick in the ROUND 1 SUPPLEMENTAL. Beane got Williams again.
