With the third overall pick of the Major League Baseball draft Monday, the Mariners Florida catcher Mike Zunino.
Zunino, 21, has long been linked to the Mariners, and is considered the top college position player in the draft. He leads the Gators in virtually every category, with a .316 average that included 27 doubles, 18 home runs and 60 runs batted in in 62 games. Florida is playing in the NCAA tournament. There was concern over Zunino's .255 average in SEC games, but the Mariners obviously liked what they've seen of the 6-foot-2, 220-pounder, whose father, Greg, is a Reds scout.
"Mike is a sturdy, blue-collar, talented defensive receiver with extra-base offensive potential," Mariners scouting director Tom McNamara said in a release. "He is a winning player, and will be a good fit with the Mariners. We look forward to having him in our organization and working his way towards being part of our Major League club in the future."
Zunino is a three-year letter winner who is a semifinalist for the 2012 Golden Spikes Award, the **** Howser Trophy, and the Johnny Bench Award. He helped lead the Gators to a three-game sweep in NCAA regional play last weekend.
The Houston Astros started the draft on a surprising note by taking Carlos Correa, a high school shortstop from Puerto Rico. Most mock drafts had them selecting Stanford right-hander Mark Appel.
The Minnesota Twins, with the second pick, pounced on Georgia high school outfielder Byron Buxton, who most analysts believe has the most potential of any player in the draft.

Skipper wouldn't have been happy with that.

Good work for Wilhelmsen.
but he's been pitching alot it seems, kinda worried about that
edit: I wonder if this is just a day off for BR or are we going to see more Kawasaki

Saunders this week, Smoak last week, Montero a few weeks before that....Save for the Texas series, this team has been more or less individual hot streaks. Put it together dudes.

Ichiro, unfortunately, is finished. As one of his biggest fans, pains me to type that.

I have thought that the past couple seasons. Time to move o and relegate him to the back of the lineup for the time being.Originally Posted by finnns2003

Pujols didn't even bat an eye at the breaking ball Pryor threw before he double that slider off the wall. I called a HR when I saw that and wasn't far off. Really good hitters should continue to get a read on him as he keeps pitching. That's what I feel by just watching him.

Yeah he's still raw as hell, he'll figure it out in due time.
and I guess the Angels PA announcer threw some slander about the Thunder going to the Finals

Phew...
What did the PA announcer say?
Pryor's just getting everyone right now based on his velocity and the fact that many aren't familiar with him. That'll only take you so far...

Saunders, ..all the way up to 277....leading the team in stolen bases. If he could be consistent, he would pay big dividends at the top of our order
League has been very good in his new role
as well as Wilhelmsen
