@drivindave – Rob T. posted some additional info on Grant Green in the comments of this post:

I wouldn’t say he’s the best hitter in the draft– I think that distinction is going to Ackley– but Green will go in the top three or four picks probably.

Grant Green is basically Tulo with more power and maybe the best hitter the 09 draft has to offer and he is a SS who can field his position and will stay there.

If you want any more info on the draft look here http://draftinfo.wordpress.com/2008/08/27/updated-2009-mlb-draft-prospects-1-20/

What could possibly be better for the future of this team than losing every single game for the rest of the season? Rooting against the M’s at present moment is more intense than rooting for them anyway. Who cares if Miguel Cairo wins the game with an RBI single in the 9th? Woo-hoo. Let’s see if we can give up and score less runs in the final eight games than ever before. Let’s take a beating. An AL West wood shampoo. Where’s the woodshed? Right here, baby!

I say “lose baby lose” at this point all it can do is help us in the long run with a great pick,hopefully Stras.Hey Slurve I’m not familiar with Grant can you give an update/bio on him?
Thx

Darn if the Padres got the first pick they would choose Strasburg you see I’m a fan of Grant Green but I will not complain if we choose Strasburg because he is really good and a “can’t miss” player but i don’t won’t us to lose 100 and if we win the next 7 games to avoid 100 we will definitely fall to 3rd…
