Dodger Pick Zach Lee

For the Dodgers first pick of the 2010 Amateur Draft they pick talented two star athlete Zach Lee. He represents a huge risk for the Dodgers since he has committed to LSU and is expected to compete as their quarterback. Signing him may be very difficult.

Go to Memories of Kevin Malone for a more in depth look at him.

Above is his 2008 Team USA Upper Deck card. He is the kid on the right.

2010 Draft Tonight

Tonight will begin the first round of the 2010 amateur Baseball draft. With the Dodgers locked into the 28th spot and with teams unable to trade draft picks to move up or down don't expect this to be a barn-burner. In fact, the only entertaining event will be when Washington picks the soon to be millionaire Bryce Harper forcing everyone to wonder if the buckets of cash he will get is justified for a kid who will take at least a couple of years of seasoning in the minors before he is ready for the show- at a minimum.
