Draft Recap, Mark Derosa

According to the MLB Network, the Cubs and Braves are the 2 finalists to land utility man Mark Derosa. I will not be in favor with this move because Derosa does not suit are needs right now. The Cubs need power and speed and Derosa pretty much has neither.

Here are the players the Cubs drafted on day 1, day 2 and day 3.

Positions the Cubs drafted:
Catchers-5
Infielders-15
Outfielders-7
RHP-17
LHP-6

I say the Cubs did pretty good on the draft for being towards the bottom of the draft. I say 6-10 players will make the MLB and 2-4 players be in the MLB in 2-3 years.

That is it for the draft and when anything Cubs come around, I will have it.
