Giants May Draft A Pitcher With Fifth Pick
MLB Trade Rumors.com
The Giants have the fifth overall pick in the June draft. It's a shame teams can't trade picks, because the San Francisco's needs don't really match up with the likely best available talent.
Jim Callis provided interesting speculation in issue 0808 of Baseball America's print magazine. Callis suggested that the Giants may lean toward pitching in June even though the best available talent will be at first base. This is because top prospect Angel Villalona is moving from third to first and the Giants may not want to create a future logjam.
Callis tossed out three possible pitchers for the Giants for the fifth pick: Tim Melville, Christian Friedrich, and Tanner Scheppers.
Comment: If the Giants do not address their offense with the number #5 pick, it is time that Brian Sabean and the rest of his team move to greener pastures. And, it is time Peter Magowan and the rest of the team ownership find another management team to run this club.
