I have been waiting patiently this week for the live coverage of the 2007 Major League Baseball draft on ESPN2. It’s not often that we have local draft prospects. The buzz in the neighborhood was that Madison Bumgarner would be picked up in the first 20 picks of the first round. I have been following news on Madison since early during this baseball season. At 3:05pm today, Madison Bumgarner was picked by the San Francisco Giants. This pick was the 10th overall during the first round.
The First Round Results down to Madison Bumgarner:
1 - David Price - Vanderbilt - Tampa Bay Devil Rays
2 - Mike Moustakas - Chatsworth High School (CA) - Kansas City Royals
