2008 mock draft
Dave Bush, P, MIL
Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.

Granted Bourn will most likely be the superior to Theriot, but team structure and timing made Bourn a difficult fit for my team. The outfield situation in Philly before the trade made Bourn's situation ambiguous which is why he was still available at this point in the draft. His Stolen Base potential is undeniable and a bargain for KJ in the 17th round. Plus, Theriot's dual qualification in the Middle Infield and his #2 position in the Cub batting order made him appealing at the time. Whether he keeps his job, well I'll worry about that another day like some time in March!!!

I didn't have the chance to take Bourn, but I wouldn't have anyway cause I already "wasted" a pick on Owens. I'd rather have Bourn.
