I freakin love HRam. The upside Cabrera has COULD just turn out to be to hard to pass up... Lord, can't we just play ball already? I am dying to see how all of these draft eligible players produce this year. The number two pick. Holy hell, this pick is the most important pick the Pirates have made in 20 plus years. I swear the last two weeks are always, always the hardest to endure. Jason. I freakin love HRam.

To be fair, Colon may be the only SS out of the group when it is all said and done. Colon won't be HRam or Reyes, but it sounds like he can be a solid all around player. I would still prefer the Bucs to take a player like Cabrera (more upside arm,power,speed) and give hime a shot at short. If he isn't the next Hanley, well that make up sounds like God was creating a RF anyway.
