Sour Grapes

The gazillion rounds of the MLB draft are over, and Danny Almonte was not drafted. To the Foulpole, but more so to Aswaff who said smugly "Of course he will get drafted" I merely say, I TOLD YOU SO.

Didn't Danny marry some 30 year old chick recently?

I read he was drafted, by the Yankees no less. Grizzly Adams does have a beard.

How come the MLB draft takes place in the middle of the season, not at the end of the season like the NHL, NBA, and NFL?

It's based on when the college season ends.

<a href="http://www.w...teamcume.htm">Maier</a> looks reasonably legit, but teammate Chris Simpson looks even better. Free-swinging group, those Cardinals.

First of all - an "I told you so" article? That should be beneath even you, MetJets. Secondly, I wasn't guaranteeing that he'd get drafted right out of high school. I just meant he'd be drafted at some point. He'll go to college, and see what happens then.
