[starpower25]

out of university of Delaware

I will try and get stuff on him.

Well lets hope he has a great glove or upside with the bat because he did not hit all that well this year.

Not a big fan of this pick right now.........lets hope the scouts see somethnig in him they like or think they can work on.

OK the pick might make sense after all...he had a down year this year but look at his overall numbers in this story

18 hr's 2 years ago and 11 last year.........they mentioned Jeff kent comparisons. Chances are he is moved off Short but he might be a ok pick after all.

[starpower25]

severe shin injury hampered this kid all year so he might be a steal after all.

Is this guy related to any of the more famous Bucholz's?

[rockinredlegs]

Good read on Bucholz.

Looks like a solid sleeper pick, imo.

We have too many guys that are playing shortstop right now that don't really project as such.

The more I thought about that, the more I became sold on G Beckham. I think we made a bit of a mistake.

Actually, it's debatable whether G.Beckham was going to stick at short. Some think he'll have to be moved to a less taxing position.

Well, I guess that's why I don't run the draft.
