Draft Update: End of day one

Well, the Brewers had plenty of picks, and would have had two more (an additional 1st or 2nd round and a supplemental) if Ben Sheets had signed with another team... Oh well. Still an interesting first day, with some exciting results. I've already posted a blurb about our first round, here is some info on the rest of day one:

In comp round A with the 39th overall pick the Brewers took Kentrail Davis, a CF from Tennesee, later in that round with the 47th pick they took Mike Heckathorn, a RHP from Kennesaw State.

In round two the Brewers had back to back picks at #73 and 74. First they took Maxwell Walla, a RF from Albuquerque Academy, Albuquerque, NM and then snagged Cameron Garfield, a catcher from Murrieta Valley HS, CA.

The last pick of the day was in the third round, 105 overall, with which the Brewers grabbed Joshua Prince, a SS from Tulane.

Quick overview, hopefully I can get some more details for you tonight.
With 6 picks out of the first 105, the Brewers took 4 players from four-year universities, 2 high schoolers, two pitchers (both righties), two outfields, a catcher and a shortstop.

Have fun with day two, I'm off to work, hopefully some details about these guys tonight, and a recap of draft, day two.

Brew UP!
