...or is Washington loading up?
The Nationals already have two good, young Zimmermans. On top of that, in the past few drafts they've landed Drew Storen (already their closer), Stephen Strasburg, Bryce Harper, and this year Anthony Rendon fell to them.
I'm told by the people that watch college baseball for their paychecks that I should like Rendon.
Now they nab Kentucky righty Alex Meyer at the bottom of the first round and TCU lefty Matt Purke in the third.
I'm told by the guy that sits on my couch and watches baseball casually that I should like Purke. That kid is crazy good.
I know, Strasburg has to overcome this injury. But a Strasburg at 75% is still a Strasburg.
Anyone else keeping up with the draft and/or what the Nats or doing?
