Rich:
? Thank you for asking this very?pertinent and timely question.? In fact, all of the Bomber draft picks signed and will be on my retention roster (barring offseason trade).? You would have heard a lot of breathless comment about these players if they had been on one of the team that gets Beckham-level press coverage (Riptorns, Berliners), but alas, since they reside on the Bombers, there has been nary a peep.? So lets review.
? The Bombers took three college players in the rotation draft.? All three were then drafted by AL teams.? All three then signed before the 8/15 deadline.? Here is the stockpile:
1.? David Price -- A lefty pitcher and the #1 overall choice in the 2007 amateur draft.? He is a high strikeout, future ace.
2.? Matt Wieters -- He has the very common combination of being both a catcher and a closer.? The #5 overall pick will likely play catcher in the bigs.
3.? David Brackman -- Another first round power pitcher, this one drafted by the Yankees.??
? That is all for now.??
? -- Mark B.
Hey -- have the Blocker draft picks been signed yet or will they be available in
ext year's MLB draft?

Thank you for the latest installment of "Pump and Dump," the daily publication
f the Riptorn franchise.? To provide a more even-handed view of league affairs,
thought I would offer the following item:
Joba Chamberlain <http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playerpages/player_main.asp?sport=MLB&id=4518>
RHP Yankees ?
Easily the player who has done the most for his prospect status during the
irst four and a half months of the 2007 season, Chamberlain is now firmly
ntrenched as one of the game's top pitching prospects ." -- Rotoworld
During his stint in Tampa Chamberlain posted a 2.03 ERA and 51/11 K/BB ratio.
e pitched similarly well after moving up to Trenton for eight appearances and
cranton-Wilkes Barre for three more. Between the three levels, the Native
merican right-hander recorded a 2.45 ERA and an incredible 135/27 K/BB ratio in
8 1/3 innings of work." -- Bomber Nation Press Guide
Chamberlain has the stuff that one can dream on, and he'll likely step in as no
orse than a No. 3 starter for the Yankees in 2008. In time he'll be an ace" --

You never hear about this guy because he is not a Riptorn" -- Winick Worldwide
