There's a 1st for everything & Looking back at the PFBL draft



The "I homered before Albert Pujols" club closed it's door to new membership on Sunday afternoon with 272 players homering ahead of Pujols this season (according to baseballmusings.com). Perhaps the best part of the 2-run dinger was the the Angels dugout celebration.

Only the Bizarro Royals can hope that this means bright days ahead for the Halos slugger, as the first round pick had only 34 points heading into Sunday. However, Pujols was not alone in the "I'm a first round pick and I've only scored 34 points so far this year" club. He's joined by Colorado Tumbleweed's Cliff Lee. Though Lee has somewhat more of a solid alibi having been sidelined  on the DL for the last few weeks. After the jump we'll take a deeper look back at breaking down the PFBL draft just over a month into the season.

Birds Eye View

~ Maybe Coors Field is Not the Ideal Place for Starting Pitching ~

I find it best to keep a close eye on the competition, even get a birds eye view at times. This is a clip of Bloomington Baseball's Daniel Hudson warming up in the pen before last night's game.
