The baseball draft is scheduled for June 7^th 2010, which is one month away.  The next Ken Griffey Junior and Alex Rodriguez will be (should be) the number one draft pick of the MLB draft.  This player of course, being Bryce Harper.

Bryce Harper is only a junior in high school{should be a junior} and  he is batting over .400 in a very competitive junior college league.  His team would beat many division one baseball squads.  Harper would be the best of the best.   It is very possible that he could be the best of the best in his future professional baseball career.  His hard work ethic, raw power and perfect swing and talent at many positions is making the Washington Nationals’ baseball team salivate at the possibilities.

Bryce Harper has many talents in baseball and one of them, being the positions he plays.  He is a catcher at heart.  Some scouts feel he lacks the proper mechanics behind the plate and does not compare to that of Joe Mauer’s defensive prowess.  Others feel differently.  He can pitch, play 3^rd base and the outfield.  This kid has a lot of raw talent.

Even if the Nationals do not draft Bryce Harper as the 2010 Major League Baseball Draft pick, he is sure to make a lot of money.  Just think of that contract.  He may be difficult to sign!

UPDATE…. Yes… I made a mistake in my post.. I did put the Senators at first but I did mean the Nationals as you can see further in the reading.  I am sorry for the mistake.  It has been edited.
