First-round MLB draft reactions

The first round is already in the books, which means it's time for the second-guessing to begin. I don't kill picks, and I don't like to say picks were bad or wrong, but there are picks I liked more than others, with my big board my means for comparison.

Picks I loved

Kevin Newman, Pittsburgh (19th overall): Second on my board, Newman is a plus runner and true shortstop with a great swing that has made him one of the toughest hitters to strike out in Division I.
