A top SS prospect comes in at #31. Adding a high draft pick pitching prospect for #32. There may be some delays toward the very end of the poll as I will be on vacation at the end of the month.
And, as usual, want ideas on who to add next. Someone in camp? McRae, Wood, Stallings, Weiss, Kelly, Milbrath, Richard Rodriguez? A young pitcher like Vasquez, McGregor, Pina, Hinsz, Robles, Oddy Nunez? An old favorite like Casey Sadler?
