Actually the simple reason they use aluminum bats is to save money.

Baltimore really should take Grant Green. A lot of teams are going to hate themselves for passing him up

These eight picks look fairly certain:

1. Nationals: San Diego State righthander Stephen Strasburg.
2. Mariners: North Carolina first baseman Dustin Ackley.
3. Padres: Georgia HS outfielder Donavan Tate.
4. Pirates: Boston College catcher Tony Sanchez.
5. Orioles: California HS righthander Matt Hobgood.
6. Giants: Georgia HS righthander Zack Wheeler.
7. Braves: Vanderbilt lefthander Mike Minor.
8. Reds: North Carolina righhander Alex White.

The Tigers are deciding whether to spend big (California HS lefthander Tyler Matzek, Missouri HS righty Jacob Turner), smaller (Texas HS righty Shelby Miller) or a little smaller (Arizona State RHP Mike Leake). Stay tuned.

5 for 5 so far...

It sucks that MLBN is just going to say every player is "a great pick"

Are they really going to do three rounds tonight? Do the second and third rounds drop to like 1 minute on the clock?
