  • Phils Draft Kyle Drabek

    Looks like a nice pick from all the Google articles I can read. He is supposedly an incredible offensive player but projects as a SP in the Majors.

    Also was a nice football player: http://www.5atexasfootball.com/05rank14.htm

    As for the compensation pick from the METS for Billy Wagner - we drafted Adrian Cardenas, a 6-foot, 185-pound shortstop from Monsignor Edward Pace H.S., in Miami Lakes, Fla.

    A left-handed hitter, Cardenas played shortstop in high school but will be moved to second base. This spring, Cardenas hit .630 in 108 at-bats. He had 16 doubles, 17 homers, 56 RBI and 14 stolen bases.

    My prediction is you never in your life see Cardenas in a Phillies uniform at the Major League Level. I don't know why Major League teams waste high picks on frail High School middle infielders. Baffling. So hard to project. The first 5 rounds should be PITCHING, PITCHING AND MORE PITCHING.

    I think the market is pretty much set now for the Phils to sign Drabek. The Rangers selected a HS pitcher with the 12th pick and he signed for a $1.6MM bonus and a college pitcher, Matt Antonelli who went the pick before Drabek signed for $1.575MM. That should clarify what Drabek should get and the Phils should try to sign him quickly.

            Kyle is too busy banging chicks that respond to his myspace page and apologizing to his girlfriend of the moment for doing it.

                Funny that I make that comment yesterday and this comes out in the Inquirer today (the more PC version but exactly what I said):

                Drabek is taking time to just chill

                Kyle Drabek's immediate plans are simple: Relax and spend time with friends.

                    I predict Brodrick Bunkley signs before Drabek.
