Interesting side note; ex yankee prospect and now pittsburgh starting pitcher Ross Ohlendorf wrote his college thesis on how to fix the MLB draft. How cool is that!

MLB Draft 6/9
Today was the MLB Draft. Yes I know most of you don't care but this is important stuff people. As expected Stephen Strasburg was the first player taken in this year's draft. He's expected to get around a 50 million dollar deal, which is absolutely absurd, for an unproven player. Most experts are saying that this is the signing that will cause the MLB to completely renovate the draft process. However, i do not agree. The reason that this won't happen is because baseball's management has no idea how to run the sport, so obviously the smart idea will be thrown out and they old outdated draft will be here to say.
