Here's something to make you happy: Petro keeps talking about a draft from a couple years ago. I forget the year but I think it was 2000-02, somewhere in there. Anyway, after the first 3 rounds the Royals selected nothing but college seniors. Why? They have no leverage and will be forced to sign at very low rates, talking just a few thousand dollars, not even tens of thousands. That's how Glass has buried this franchise.
"This organization is like a flower you buy when you want to go to the prom. You've got a date and she's got a flower for you, so you're pretty excited. You've put your flower in the backyard for safety, but when you go to get the flower it's buried under 50 feet of shit. Tough way to go to the prom." /Herm/

That is why I said the people passed over specifaclly because of money in the last 3 years. THe 3 year even when baird was going out it looked like we were getting guys that we normally couldn't get in the draft because I thought shit was going to be different. The last 3 years I have been drinking the coolaid that shit is different. Oh didn't the scouts sort of miss on buck and teahen, or i guess that was the best deal were were going to get. Either Way we just miss on everyone. It's going to look like we missed on guillen because no one around him is doing anything.
