Getting bored already Yoop? Or just eager anticipation for your pick?

I was hoping to get Al. I even scouted out bugs bunny cartoons on you tube mentioning Alburquerque...

[Zack attack]

With my pick in the draft, I choose Octavio Dotel, and wish him luck with his 13th team...

You should have used my auto pics

[iholly]

Sorry about the delay people. Been on the road all day. My pick is Wade Gaynor.

[DaYooperASBDT]

This year I'm going to try working my mojo on a position player.
Here's a video clue for you!

[DaYooperASBDT]

yessir, for 2012 DaYooperASBDT selects:

[TigerPride8301]

Thanks for making my pick and posting a pic, Yoop! Happy to have Avisail under my wing this year. I think he'll have a big year this year....most likely in Erie. Can't wait for the season to get going!!!

[ErieTigerFan]

Anybody home? Gee...... I've been refreshing this page since noon. I'm on the brink here!

[ErieTigerFan]

With pick #41, I'm taking a relief pitcher who I expect will redeem himself this year: David Pauley.

[ErieTigerFan]

Sorry under the weather you have been on the clock since 6:09 pm actually :-)

Makes two of us, Yoop. Feel better!

[A.J.K.]

I'll prepare a spiffier post later, but I'll take Phil Coke please!

[MC Sucka DJ]

Crap, I'm late. I'll take Andrew Oliver.

[MelissaG915]

I'll take Daniel Schlereth

[mtutiger]

I'll take Ryan Raburn

[ErieTigerFan]

I'll take Ryan Raburn

RR was my AAT last year, mtu. Defend him well! He had another great 2nd half last year. If only he could put it all together for a whole season. Maybe this year??

[Corky]

So much for picking Yumaya.

With the 44th pick I choose . . . . .


Daniel Fields!

Detroit Tigers Prospect Daniel Fields hit a HR at Comerica Park when he was 12



Detroit Tigers outfield prospect Daniel Fields was one of the youngest everyday players in the Advanced Class A Florida State League last season and spent this year there too. He’s also probably the youngest player to ever hit a home run in his future home ballpark, Comerica Park

When Fields was 12-years-old, his father Daniel was the batting coach for the Tigers. Before a game, his father threw him batting practice and Fields hit a home run with a wooden bat…yes, a home run and yes, with a wooden bat.

Fields was drafted in the 6th round of the 2009 MLB First-Year Player Draft and passed up a commitment to play baseball at the University of Michigan after he signed for $1.625 million.

[DaYooperASBDT]

Once Titus Tiger's pick is made or clocked out, we'll put three on the clock at once for the
remainder of the 2012 draft.

[MotorCityKitty]

I will take a guy who I really hope will get a shot at his debut this year,

Justin Henry

[Titus Tiger]

Titus will go with Paws the Tiger for the fourth year in a row

[whitecapwendy]

In the 53 round of the 2012 draft, WhitecapWendy picks;

Steven Moya


7-28-11 Whitecaps Steve Moya_1 by whitecapwendy, on Flickr

This young outfielder has massive power potential. According to Mark Anderson at Tigstown.com "Moya’s raw power is absolutely off the charts. He will earn 80 grades from some scouts that differentiate between raw and usable power. In batting practice Moya has the ability to blast some of the longest home runs you will see, and even though he was over-matched in West Michigan he still showed plenty of game power in a tough hitter’s league.". I am hoping that Steven will return to West Michigan and that, under my tender care, he will blossom as a hitter and begin to reach his potential as a player.

TigersSlappy selects:

Dixon Machado, SS

[TigersFan81371]

In the 53 round of the 2012 draft, WhitecapWendy picks;

Steven Moya

Oh, snap! The #1 guy on my list has been chosen! I've read that it's very likely that we'll be seeing him start the season in WM again, and I'm also hoping to see some big-time improvement. I've been intrigued by his power potential ever since I first read about him at TigsTown.com in '09.

[TheCouga]

Damn, I was targeting both Dixon Machado and Brenny "Wild Thing" Paulino.

This is wht happens when you pick 73rd!!

[DaYooperASBDT]

Still 26 left to pick from the last draft!
