is starting the watch to see who gets the #1 pick in the 2008 draft. So far the Rays, White Sox and Marlins are in the lead in what Baseball America is referring to as the "Pedro Alvarez sweepstakes." Just what we need, another 3B prospect! Alvarez is supposed to be a stud but we're running out of space at 3B (Gordon), 1B (Butler?) and RF (Teahen). Thought it might be of interest...
"Race for the bottom."
