Webster Sons in the Draft

The draft always leaves some questions. There are too many things to try and figure it out - different organizations have different needs obviously, but they also have different philosophies. Kids slide because of signability issues, etc. The first few rounds I think are usually predictable, after that..... lots of surprises.

Jerseydad's son Quinton (not Robert) Miller named called in the 20th round by the Pirates.

Lee Ridenhour to the Minnesota Twinns!!!!

CONGRATS!!!! to Lee and family!!!
Sooo happy for you !!!!!! whoo hoooo!!!!!

A very exciting day today!

Thanks, everyone.. and congrats to all the other posters whose sons were drafted today. Today was a very special day.

The most amazing thing.. there were six (that's right 6 players from Rusty's Summer team (all kids from the Spokane area) that were drafted today. Those players: Rusty Shellhorn (Bum, Jr.), Trevor Shull, Andrew Kittredge, Beau Brett, Jarek Cunningham, and Bryan Peterson. Good job, boys.

Congratulations to all the players drafted...Its a day you'll never forget

Congratulations to all the players (and their parents) on getting "the call."

Ditto.

Thanks to everyone and congratulations to all the families and players that heard their name called.

How cool is this game that we all love, especially when your son gets the call!

I know this is not about Websters sons but the Cards had some pretty interesting picks.

One is the navy pitcher, Mitch Harris... will the Navy let him play?

Scott Boras' son... will he be advised to sign or go to college first?

And then there's Eric Fornataro, who obviously never gave up.

You might also find some familiar names to the left of the page.

It will depend on what young Mr. Boras wants to do. I bet he goes to USC.

congrats to all of the son's of webster's that were drafted.

a day you'll remember for the rest of your life.

Congrats to all of the websters sons - and families!!!

It was really exciting watching the names come up - and I wish you all the best!

My congrats, also, to all of the sons of websters who were drafted.

Although not my son, my friend and neighbor's son, Craig Kimbrel, was drafted by the Braves in the third round. I'm as excited for them as if he were my son. My son might just be at that point in a couple of years or so. I know they will share my excitement at that time, too.

This kid is making his MLB debut right now, against the Phillies!!

He's throwing 98 mph!!!

Wow, I don't know how I missed that! How did it go!

Congratulations!
