    /bump.
    LOL Tim Beckham.

    Alas, looking back on other teams' screw ups is of small consolation to me to the Giants stealing the best players in the draft. Admittedly, I would have also taken Pedro Alvarez.

    Now they are stuck with the great Dan Johnson and Casey Kotchman at first.

    Haha, I missed the one about skipping Tim Beckham because of Brignac, that is funny.

    Hey I don't consider Dan the Man ( Mofo) at first as being stuck.

    Can't rule him out just yet. I know he's on the fence of either becoming the AAAA Dallas McPherson or Brandon Wood, but he still could be a good power hitter in the majors. Plus he shouldn't have much pressure with 19 fans watching him every game.. I mean, he did have a solid half season.

    I really didn't intend to bump this thread to call out someone on a prediction gone wrong, which is something I despise posters who do it, unless of course it's a prediction founded on plain homerism, for instance, Buster Davis > Dwayne Bowe.

    The topic is prospects, it makes sense to revisit them.
