Hey, here's a Mock Draft for June 2012.
Who do they have the Astros taking with 1-1?
The Astros need talent. Their system is going the right direction and they need a top of the line pitcher. While Giolito may have a higher ceiling, history tells me that the college guy will be more of a sure thing. I have to go with more certainty and take my favorite college arm. Astros will take Kevin Gausman, RHP, LSU.
FYI, Mark Appel fell "all the way" to 1-5, "taken" by the Royals.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
