DRAFT RETRO

2014: One year in, this is shaping up to be my best draft so far. Rondon did nothing in 2015 but he's young, blah blah. Reyes and Cease had very good years and are shooting up prospect lists. Olivera had a hectic year but all of the tools and talent are still there for a big impact in 2016.
Adrian Rondon, SS: International talent who has been compared to Hanley Ramirez.
Jomar Reyes, 3B: International signee with an aggressive assignment held his own in 2014. Good power and defense at the hot corner.
Dylan Cease, RHP: Cubs signed him for 1.5 million as a late rounder HS arm that needed Tommy John. He can run it up to 97 when healthy. High ceiling, big question marks.
Hector Olivera, 2B: Cuban defector hasn't signed yet but very high reviews and a good gamble in the 4th round.

2013: All draft picks traded away.
None:

2012: Ryu has settled in as a 2/3 starter in his two years stateside. Olson is shaping up to be a three true outcome threat. He's one of Oakland's top prospects and his stock is rising. The rest of the draftees have not generated much buzz and are unlikely to be major contributors.
Hyun-Jin Ryu, LHP
Matt Olson, 1B
Pat Light, RHP
Andrew Toles, OF
Wilfredo Rodriguez, C
Stephen Bruno, 2B

2011: My best draft to date. Rendon and Paxton both appear to be on their way to being stars. Hager may have a future as a utility man. Peterson was a steal in the 4th round.
Anthony Rendon, 3B
James Paxton, LHP
Jake Hager, SS
Granden Goetzman, OF
Jace Peterson, SS
Will Lamb, LHP

2010: Jesse Biddle is the lone highlight on this list but had a rough 2014. The rest of the draft is forgettable.
Jessie Biddle, LHP
Jake Thompson, RHP
Cory Vaughn, OF
David Filak, RHP
Daniel Tillman, RHP
Leon Landry, OF

2009: Two first round picks only. Ackley is slowly developing in the majors but has a long way to go to live up to his draft status. White had some success in the minors and then had TJ surgery.
Dustin Ackley, 2B
Alex White, SP

2008: Odorizzi is the highlight and pitched like a mid-rotation starter this year. Smith has settled in to a LOOGY role. Spruill's gotten a few cups of coffee and looks like a back end starter/long reliever/AAA type guy. Not bad value out of the 5th round. Beckham's stock has rebounded slightly and injuries didn't do him any favors in 2014.
Tim Beckham, SS
Jake Odorizzi, SP
Will Smith, SP
Zeke Spruill, SP

2007: Mesoraco keeps getting better (starting as soon as I cut him) and now looks like one of the better catchers in the league. Nobody else did anything.
Devon Mesoraco, C
Andrew Brackman, SP
Brian Rike, RF
Damon Sublett, 2B
Steven Hill, UT

2006: Malancon has turned into one of the better relievers in the game. Everyone else sucked. Poor draft saved only by a relief pitcher taken in the 4th round.
Chris Marrero, 1B
Wes Hodges, 3B
Chad Tracy, 1B
Mark Melancon, RP
Zech Zinicola, RP
