EXPLANATION OF THE SUPPLEMENTAL ROUND AND WHY THERE WERE SO MANY PICKS THIS YEARS FROM MLB.COM

Compensation PicksThe former Club of a Player who became a free agent and ranks as a Type A or B Player shall be entitled to receive compensation in the form of a draft choice in the First-Year Player Draft succeeding the Player's election of free agency.

A Type A or B shall be a Player who became a free agent and ranks as a Type A or B Player under the statistical system of ranking Players set forth by the Elias Sports Bureau, using statistics based on a two-year average for each respective position group. Type A and Type B players necessitate that the Player's former Club receive a sandwich pick in between rounds one and two. Additional picks in the second, third and fourth rounds are exchanged from one club to another for the losses of Type A free agents.

Type A Players now rank in the upper 20% of his respective position group by the Basic Agreement, instead of the upper 30% as was stipulated in the previous collective bargaining agreement.

Type B Players now rank in the upper 40%, but not in the upper 20%, of his respective position group. Under the previous collective bargaining agreement, Type B Players ranked in the upper 50% not in the upper 30%. Before the most recent collective bargaining agreement took effect for the 2007 season, a Club would receive compensation for losing a Type C free agent. Under the new Basic Agreement, Type C free agents no longer call for a draft pick as compensation.

Why Sabean didn't take Corey Brown in #51?

Brown had 42BB & 13HRs in 216AB of 2006.

Is Sabean a shithead or what?

I have to think so. The pick @ #43 Williams was a catcher, not highly regarded, but you just signed Molina. So how does he help?

I mentioned Mangini, a college 3B with a good bat, could have replaced Pete Happy real soon.

Then Culbertson, a HS SS at that spot? And Mangini comes off the board right after. This dooms Culbertson to failure and Mangini to stardom.

Corey Brown was highly regarded out of Plant HS in Tampa when I lived down there. Good Bat. Had a bit of a problem out of HS that caused Virginia, I believe to pull a scholarship. He goes to OSU, where they do nothing but produce bats.

The Milledge kid had a similar situation in HS and it didn't stop him from being drafted and succeeding.

That's fine if your organizational philosophy is you don't want the "character risk", but apparently the Fairley kid they drafted in the first round had some concerns. But maybe when your a five-tool prospect you can get away with more than a one or two tool player.

Brown does seem to fit the A's mold so he'll probably end up succeeding across the Bay. Hopefully, Sabean will be long gone by then.
