Why did you include me in that string of quotes? I was merely stating a fact

Because I wanted to. And to show how idiotic ESPN can be.

 

And because you insinuated that I'm a jerk.

Really glad they went with Bachman, he's clearly the better investment when all things are considered. And Kumar Rocker being the ESPN darling is just a puff piece really. Big East coast kid, throws hard, was already a first round pick, plays for their favorite school at Vandy and if we are being honest, in today's culture, he's just easier to market. 

It had less to do with on the field performance. Don't get me wrong, he's worth the pick, and I ranked him above Bachman, but is he with 6 million and the headache that comes with the additional media coverage and expectations, to go along with a not completely clean bill of health? 

No way. 

Bachman is a safe pick. You can be relatively certain he's either a really good starter or elite reliever. 

How did I know you were going to make a reference to his race?

Interesting that most of their UDFA's are position players.  And a bunch of catchers.  We have to have signed more undrafted players than any other team.

The Angels have 21. The next highest team is Philly with 10 UDFA.
