Brett Being a former pro maybe you can explain to me why the MLB draft is in the middle of the college tournament. From a marketing standpoint it makes much more sense to have it the Tuesday after the CWS. I agree...I would even push for it after the World Series. The only issue you run into would be the short season leagues would cease to exist, as they are built to take in many draft choices when they start in June. Personally, I think if Appel struggled because he was already drafted in the first round and is a future millionaire, then I wouldn't want to be the Pirates... I do think it is something to look into. As far as I know, the MLB Draft is the only draft that occurs during the season. I'd be interested in hearing Swingbuilder's thoughts on this issue.

Robert Stock isn't doing too bad. His dad didn't want to listen to me when I told him his son's swing was too long. Maybe he will listen to me now and have his son go see Kinexus/Yardbird/Dirtberry. Also known as Lon Fullner of Saddleback Valley Baseball. Better yet he should go spend a couple of weeks in Zephyrhills with Dr Mike Marshall. I have zero doubt Dr Marshall and/or Kinexus will zero in on those 6 home runs. The good thing for Robert is that I think Brent Strom would endorse either option. www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?sid=milb&t=p_pbp&pid=476594Kharma One of Stock's problems was that his swing was far too long. Another was his reliance on "flying off the merry-go-round", and the last was the fact that he dragged the bat.

Bump in hopes of getting SB's response...
