yeah but in baseball its very hard to tell how a player will develop
round 1 – round 50 have produced equally great talent

That's not really true...
Round 1 produces way more MLB talent than round 50. About 1/3 of the players in Round 1 make the majors. The same is not remotely true of Round 50.

I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.

I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.
