The only early high school picks were infielder Trace Loehr (6th round, Oregon HS) and right-hander Branden Kelliher (8th round, Washington HS) Loehr could have gone as high as the third round due to his line drive bat and good speed. Kelliher is "undersized" at 5-11 but can get up to 94. Of the college guys, Chapman has an outstanding arm and could pitch if hitting doesn’t work out, while both Gossett and Graves project as number three starters. Schwartz is an athletic right-hander who fanned 109 in 95 innings this year. Later college picks to watch include Branden Cogswell (7th round, SS, Virginia), Corey Miller (10th round, RHP, Pepperdine), Trent Gilbert (15th round, 2B, Arizona), and Michael Nolan (18th round, LHP, Oklahoma City University). ERIC KUBOTA ON A'S TOP-TWO PICKS: (Chapman)There’s a lot we like about him. He’s a really good athlete and he has a chance to be an elite defender at third base. He can really, really throw. He’s a guy who is fun to watch throw.We do think his bat is ever- improving. We think there is real power there and that this is a guy who is going to develop into a power hitter as his pro career progresses. We think he could go out and play shortstop. We actually saw him play shortstop last summer with Team USA, but we really see him as a third baseman starting his pro career and continuing on through his pro career. Obviously, looking at the numbers, he is a guy who has very good plate discipline. He walks at a pretty good clip and doesn’t strike out a lot, which are both traits that we value. We think he has just continued to get stronger as he has matured physically. Although the power numbers haven’t necessarily shown up yet during his college career, we do think there is untapped power there and that he will have power as he goes along his pro career. When I wake up at three in the morning in the middle of a dream, that is the kind of player I envision [Chapman being]. That’s kind of the profile that if everything comes together, that’s the player we are hoping to get here. We definitely like his make-up. This is a kid we know really well. He played on our scout team when he was in high school. I think he is confident, but I think there is a little part of him, too, that is a little naive in terms of how good he might end up becoming. His talents have continued to improve. (Gossett)We like a lot about Daniel Gossett. He’s a proven college performer. He has a fastball that is 92-94. He throws strikes. He has the makings of an out-pitch breaking ball and a very good change-up. There is just a lot to like about him. A very athletic kid with stuff and performance. He’s a guy that we have liked since high school. I can only speak to this year personally, but I think he probably showed flashes of the velocity that he has shown this year, but maybe it is just a little bit more consistent this year. He has a plus-fastball that’s 92-94 and he locates it well in the bottom of the ‘zone. He has a hard slider that is really a hybrid breaking pitch that some guys might call a curveball and some might call a slider. We see an advanced change-up for a college guy. Like I said, we see a full repertoire of pitches already. --
