Love that 48th rounder back in 2003.

2003 was quite the year in Cubs history.

I prefer to check out their 3rd round pick. In Jake I trust.

See the Sox know when they take a guy in the 38th round, they know he will be the best pitcher in the organizations history! Thats why they wait until round 38, so nobody else takes him!

The worst thing about that draft was after Hendry drafted the great Ryan Harvey 6th Nick Markakis went 7th, Paul Maholm 8th and John Danks 9th. Ouch Babe.

Hendry does need a better boss. he just throws the money at the issues.

The cash, the no trade clauses, the lack of scouting is what pisses me off the most, it's like Hendry signs guys off ESPN Highlights and a glimpse of the guys baseball card.
