So The Rangers Drafted Some Kid From Richmond Who Will Probably End Up Playing For UV Anyways

From ESPN.com:

ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Rangers selected 18-year-old left-handed pitcher Kevin Matthews with the No. 33 overall pick in the 2011 MLB Draft on Monday.
The Rangers' have picks 33 and 37 in the draft as compensation for free agent pitcher Cliff Lee. The Rangers gave up their pick at No. 26 for signing Adrian Beltre.
Matthews, from Richmond Hill (Ga.) High School, is 5-for-11, 175-pound lefty who throws a 92 mph fastball and is committed to Virginia.
At No. 37, the Rangers took University of Georgia outfielder Zach Cone.

Wait, this kid's only 5-for-11? That can't be right. Let shaboomin do some research. Loading...

Oh... ESPN meant he's 5'11. Love calling ESPN out on their shit. Just gives me erotic pleasure for some reason. It's too bad baseball drafts can't be as exciting as basketball or football drafts, but what are you gonna do? It's a different game. Players have to go through the system, tweak their mechanics, and prove that they can play at the highest level. Then, before you know it they're either injured, cursed with the yipps, or hanging out with meth heads in tattoo parlors, and 3 years has gone by (cough, cough Hamilton). Hopefully it won't come to that, but you never know. Good luck Kevin Matthews and good luck Zach Cone. Hopefully you will both be lucky enough to some day play for Nolan Ryan's Texas Rangers.
