Only three prospects remained unsigned after last night's midnight eastern deadline passed.

Dylan Covey and Karsten Whitson, two of the top prep righties in the draft, elected to go the college route.

Awhile back, I wrote that signability may not be a deterrent in the 2010 draft.

Dave Cameron of Fangraphs recently wrote an excellent piece explaining how this came into play with the Dodgers and Zach Lee.

MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo gave us the great idea of creating a consensus mock draft. We took expert projections and combined them into one super-draft.

The criteria used for compiling draft boards is not consistent throughout the league.

Some teams prefer power arms, while others have control listed as the most important pitching trait. The typical plan in some war rooms is to draft high school players that can be developed over an extended period of time, but there are plenty of teams that would rather draft college talent that is closer to being big league-ready.

At this point it would be shocking if the first name called during June’s entry draft was someone other than Bryce Harper. The real intrigue will start when it’s Pittsburgh’s turn to make a selection.

Jameson Taillon is widely regarded as the second best player in the draft, but the Pirates will most likely pass. Neal Huntington has openly admitted that he has concerns about him and the team is thought to be targeting college pitchers.

Drew Pomeranz, Chris Sale, and Deck McGuire are the most likely choices.

We decided to take our first crack at the opening round of the upcoming entry draft. Alot can change between now and June 7th though, so you'll see a few updated mocks before the real thing.

Let us know what you think of the initial projection and thanks again for stopping by as we get this thing off the ground!
