WoW. We did really good then. I can't wait to how this team performs this year.

We did alright, still lost all the top draft picks like normal, for whatever reason Mainieri seems snakebitten on those guys, Gausman was big get a year ago though considering he was 6th round.

I was really hoping we could get Eierman, 4th round to the Rays. Would of started in the middle infield instead of Casey Yocum. We needed bats.

Both Nolas were very close to signing
Glad they stayed

Gausman, J Jones, and Eades were top 5 round talents...

Aren't you glad he still went after them?

People don't realize how tough it is to find a guy like that and get him to college.

They see a story or two all over the country and don't consider the other 98%.
