I assumed it meant the entire Royals front office, management, and scouting were collectively snorting cocaine almost 24/7 since the early '90s.

Of course, I wasn't alive in the 1980's...well, technically I was, but I didn't participate in the horrendous pop culture (and drugs) of the era.  Not that this era's pop culture (and drugs, just kidding) are that much better.

OK, I'm rambling.

Also: what are the odds that Gordon does nothing but hit 1 double a game for the rest of the season?

1. Willie Wilson (1974) - 219
   
2. Kevin Appier (1987) - 148
   
3. Johnny Damon (1992) - 87
   
4. Brian McRae (1985) - 56
   
5. Brent Mayne (1989) - 45
   
6. Clint Hurdle (1975) - 38
   
7. Michael Tucker (1992) - 29
   
8. Jaime Quirk (1972) - 27
   
9. Mike MacDougal (1999) - 17
   

Alex Gordon, the first round pick in 2005, and Billy Butler, the first round pick in 2005, have reached the big leagues, but I don't have Win Shares computer for 2007.

Royals first round picks who have never reached the big leagues - Luke Hochevar (2006), Matt Cambpell (2004), Chris Lubanski (2003), Colt Griffin (2001), Mike Stodolka (2000), Jay Gehrke (1999), Matt Burch (1998), Juan Lebron (1995), Matt Smith (1994), Sherard Clinkscales (1992), Jason Pruett (1991), Hugh Walker (1988), Tony Clements (1986), Ben Grzybek (1976), Lew Olsen (1973), Rex Goodson (1970), and John Simmons (1969)

Jim Callis, on his way to a Chicagoland studio to participate in ESPN's draft coverage, reports the Royals appear to have settled on Mike Moustakas with the No. 2 overall pick. That would slide Josh Vitters to the Cubs at No. 3. The Royals looked like they were on Vitters at 2 last night, but they now have changed their minds. Indiana prep righty Jarrod Parker is the odd man out in this scenario, dropping from the Cubs at 3, probably to the Diamondbacks at 9 or Giants at 10. He won't get past the Marlins at 12.
This leaves the Orioles as the biggest question mark in the first five picks. Stay tuned.

(My fantasy team.)

Is it really draft day already?
