Since Day One was so wildly successful, I'll stick around until the Cards' second round pick. Daniel Norris is still out there. Evidently he will cost some money to sign, but I think we have a bit of cash. I'll also look out for Jorge Lopez, RHP out of Puerto Rico. UPDATE X2: I'll also put out Alex Dickerson, OF Indiana U., potential big bat. UPDATE X3: Brewers took Lopez. Are those asshats reading this blog? UPDATE X4: Looking for another pitcher. If the Cards can be patient maybe Matt Purke, LHP TCU. He's been injured, but he's a high upside selection. UPDATE X5: Norris finally taken, by the Blue Jays. Possible steal if they can get him to sign. UPDATE X6: Cards selection Charlie Tilson, OF HS New Trier, IL MLB says : The Chicago-area high school product was known in the region for a while, but really helped his stock with a tremendous performance at the Area Code Games last summer. Tilson isn't the biggest guy in the world, reminding some of a Brett Ga...

I've no idea what will happen, but I'm rooting for the Cards being able to get Jed Bradley, LHP Georgia Tech. They are on pick 12 and the Cards pick at 22. There is a chance! UPDATE: Crap. The Brewers took Bradley @ #15. I'm switching to Daniel Norris, LHP, HS Johnson City, TN (Where the Cards have a minor league team. WOuld be a nice story!) UPDATE X2: Only one pick to go and Norris is still there. If they go position player I would think SS Levi Michael or 2B Kolten Wong. UPDATE X3: Cards are up! UPDATE X4: Kolten Wong is the pick. UPDATE X5: In terms of "name" picks this draft will be a little slim for the Cards. We don't pick again until #79. UPDATE X6: More on Wong from MLB.COM : There aren't that many pure college bats in this year's Draft class, but Wong has one of them. He gets overlooked because of his size, his position and the fact he plays in Hawaii. But, drawing comparisons to Carlos Baerga, Wong can really hit. He's got a profession...
