2009 draft

[OriolesMagic83]

I think the 2009 draft had to be one of the worst drafts ever by any team. Hobgood was an overdraft and reach from day 1. He would have been a decent 2nd round pick. Mychal Givens was a player who didn't seem to know whether he was a pitcher or position player. Its hard to believe not 1 player from the 2009 draft has reached the majors. I think you could pick names at random and have better success. I think the process and effort put into drafting players is much better than in the past, as even the O's castoffs are highly sought after.

Looking at the O's drafts in the 2000's is not for the faint of heart.
