DRAFT

I think the Indians took Chase Phillips somewhere around the 14th - 16th round.

J W Wilson of Midland was also taken - #195 by Minnesota, I believe.

Big Congrats to Paul Kelly & Craig Italiano, Flower Mound High School!
Great interview with Paul on MLB, just after the announcement....he said, "My advisor, Kevin Hubbard called just as my name was being called. Kevin said congratulations, then I heard it!"
The phone lines were burning up!!

That list missed the other Flower Mound boy, Jordon Meaker to Houston

Also left out was Robert Romero from Frisco, now playing at Grayson.

Ben Petralli Weatherford hs, Sac CC drafted by the Tigers 15th rd.

I know none of us have a crystal ball, but do you think the Benoits wish they had a "do-over"? Charles was drafted in Round 30 by the Phillies today. I hope he does well.

Cool to have 3 players from Flower Mound and Denton Ryan selected in the same draft.

So...the Paramore question...signability or his late season injury? I wonder if Preston has a JUCO plan that will allow him to re-enter next year's draft.

PDaddy, you are tooooo much! I have heard that Benoit has to have TJ surgery. Has anybody else heard anything?

Hehe -- Bighit -- you are the only one that remembers our disagreement!

I don't know about the TJ -- but you may be right...I don't think he generated stats at Grayson this year.

Hope Eric is doing well.

Yeah, Charles sounds like he's having a run of bad luck. I hope he gets better.

What disagreement?

It is true that Charles Benoit had TJ surgery...it was several months ago I believe.

the father made a million dollar mistake!.....I guess you reap what you sow

quote:

the father made a million dollar mistake!.....I guess you reap what you sow

Amen. Turned down very high 6 figures to go to Oklahoma. Don't go to Vegas.

.....and that was the second big mistake!

A fourth kid from Denton Ryan drafted -- very cool! Wow, this team should have won state!

Congratulations Deslaughter(144), Jackson(259), Railsback(599), and Saldivar(1460).

Gary Poynter Marcus 48th round to C. Reds #1432

Nothing on FM Gaviglio?

That is tooooo bad for Benoit, watched him pitch during that "cold March night" at Marcus..............
