For them to decide to do so in the first round, there would have to be a pretty good reason. <BR/>Kozma was the best SS in his draft year, hence he got picked. The position made the difference. <BR/>Pitching is of course important too. Beaven walked 4 in 78 innings as a high school senior. And he pitched well in international amateur play. So he was pretty polished for a high school pitcher. <BR/>Overall, the Cards are more flexible than they used to be, and harder to predict. They should factor talent and the tactical value of a position. If there is not a college guy who they like available, as was Wallace, they could go for a high schooler.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1950420033530306207.post-49083277777174435962009-03-05T20:32:00.000-08:002009-03-05T20:32:00.000-08:00Hicks was in S.

(When they picked Kozma, our area scout was his summer coach.) <BR/><BR/>With his arm and wonderful athleticism, Hicks calls to mind Bob Gibson. Hard to pass over. <BR/><BR/>Beaven may have been the best HS pitcher in Texas of his year. If I recall, he was supposed to have very fine control, which the Cards could like.<BR/><BR/>I could see the Cards draft a high schooler, but he would need to be someone they had good history on; be from the Sun Belt; have acceptable bonus hopes; and be skilled.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1950420033530306207.post-46155284493813123382009-03-04T20:39:00.000-08:002009-03-04T20:39:00.000-08:00I knew someone was going to say that.

Hopefully they are telling the truth and they really are prepared to take high risk, high reward high schoolers. There could be some good ones at pick 19 this year.Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04253733560998398381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1950420033530306207.post-73285834900641161252009-03-04T18:17:00.000-08:002009-03-04T18:17:00.000-08:00Watch what they do, not what they say!Watch what they do, not what they say!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
