The case for Kyle Russell, fourth rounder: Now that’s the stuff. Kyle Russell slugged nearly .900 and destroyed Texas’s home run record as a sophomore. He is big but still projects to fill out; he’s young for a college pick; he already has a ton of power. Plus, there’s a video of him dunking a home run into the Crawford Boxes on YouTube:

Nice.

The case against Kyle Russell: There are worries about holes in his swing, since he struck out once per game in college. He could just go back to college, too, if the Cardinals don’t show him the money. If that were to happen what happened next might get me arrested, which is just a bad thing for everybody involved.

In conclusion: this draft feels a lot better if you switch him and Clay Mortenson around. Then we only reached on Mortenson a little, and we took a chance on Kyle Russell! Much better. If they don’t sign Kyle Russell, I’ll put up a few more ads or maybe set up a good old-fashioned meth lab and see if I can’t make up the difference myself.
