We owe him. Should take him just because of what he did.

I have to be the only yankee fan in the world that doesn't like this guy. Granted, i'm exagerating a grudge from when the two of us were 12, but still. I was at that game sitting in the same seat as him only on the left field side. First off, I don't like it when games end like that anyway, I don't like the other fans to have excuses, I'll let that slide though since that Bernie homerun was one of the most memorable moments of my life. I saw the play and the replay on the big screen and he didn't even catch that ball. Then when the reporters come he's all smiley thinking he's the coolest thing since wolverine and he says "i don't know what the big deal was all i did was catch a ball teehee". And the little spaz didn't even catch it, it bounced off his forearm and he dove after it like a rat. And now as a DIII first baseman with just ok numbers he is going to get drafted?? I wish him the best because I know what its like to love baseball and be faced with the possibility of never playing competetively again, but this kid gets his balls underservingly licked more than Bubba Crosby. If Jeter was left handed I would have made the play cleanly and not acted like a little sh*t about it.

Better option - make up for one of the dumbest trades we ever made.

Drabeck has steroid and attitude rumors surrounding him so he may very well fall even in a pitcher heavy draft. Might be a risky pick though.
