The Draft

A year ago the Padres went out and drafted a high school pitcher as their number one...certainly not unique...offered a nice package and fully expected to get their guy...not so fast...he opted to not sign, go back into the draft, and go to college...decided on the the University of Florida...and what has he done as a Gator?  First of all, UF is in the Regionals, on the way to the College World Series...and yup, Karsten Whitson is having a fabulous season...8-0, with a ton of K's, tiny ERA, and a boat load of confidence...I like it...he gets to grow up normally, learn how to live away from home, with guys his own age...I like it...

More Padres...a second win against the Astros...Harang getting his 6th win of the year...matching his last 3 years, this time prior to the half way mark...Ludwick and Headley continue their streaking ways...how many days 'til Rizzo?  I even picked him up on my pathetic fantasy team...

Pick six hit at Hollywood Park for a cool $518 thou...

The NBA continues tonight...go Mavs!

Stricker is lapping the field at Jack's place...now, that is real cool...

Enjoy your weekend...

Whitson has been very solid for UF. Think it was a great decision!
