I think Texas is giving up a little too much to move up only 4 spots (he'd get a 5.0 either way...obviously, he has someone specific in mind)...but to give up 2 5.0 specs (Danks is already in the majors) and a 3.5 spec for 1 5.0 spec and a useless 30 year old catcher...I'm going FAIL.

Neither Danks nor Jones is that good to void the deal. I'll pass it.

Weak draft, the 4 pick doesn't have THAT much value.

Fail.

[Providence A's]

weak? I made it a little better than it was

I was thinking of alternating years of super draft vs. slightly above average draft...I don't like the idea of the first 40 picks being 5.0 spec SP or position players every year...

pass... agreed with mofo.

[Slyder]

Pass.
