Aaron Odom - 6'0" - 165lb

That's a lanky college senior. I'd hate to have seen him before the freshmen 15.

His stats don't jump out at you. I'm not sure what they see in this guy...

Cates can't really be 5'3, can he? How is that possible?

The Orioles should have sponsored a promotion where rounds 40-50 one fan gets to pick a player, any player. They could have given out rounds throughout the season and would have been a really good idea compared to some of these guys we're taking.

Look at the ERA lol.

The 6.75 ERA was for 2006. This year he improved all the way to 5.77. LOL

Committed to UNC-Charlotte. Very good prospect as both pitcher and hitter. Played basketball also. Some others here can probably tell you more.

He's around 90 most consistant at 87-89 he hasnt thrown over 90 before, he has decent off-speed, he'll most likely go to college. And yes he's friends with Erbe.

I'm not sure what's up with drafting all these college seniors that are fringe at best. I know we have to fill up the minors, but guys like Odom are a waste of a pick. At least Perlozzo's son can hit for average and play defense.

That's more than a few players on his dad's team can say.

Next QB for NC State. Playing for peanuts for the O's or playing for the NFL draft? I think I know which one I'd pick...

Drafting Sam's son is something you do with your last pick.
