    MLB DRAFT 08: Who will suceed to the Show?

    Out of the picks this year, who do you think will be the biggest phenom? I like Gordon Beckham.

    Beckham has done well, however I don't believe he's the real deal.

    What leads you to believe that. He has excelled at every level and made a good showing in the bigs last year for a substantial part of the year. I guess ill be way off his he has a softmore slump but i think he will be a good major league player for a long time.

    Look for Buster Posey this year.

    How's Yonder Alonso doing?

    I think that beckham doesn't have a very efficient swing mechanically. other than that he is certainly quite talented.
    I think walks are overrated unless you can run. If you get a walk and put the pitcher in a stretch, that helps, but the guy who walks and can’t run, most of the time he’s clogging up the bases for somebody who can run. – Dusty Baker.
