Does anybody really care or pay attention, probably not except for losers like myself.
Here as per nj.com were the results for yesterday.
In the second round, with the No. 72 selection overall, they took a lefthanded pitcher from Long Island named Steven Matz, who went 6-1 with an 0.47 ERA in his first seven starts on the season for Ward Melville High School in East Setauket, N.Y.
In 44 innings, he allowed 11 hits, 15 walks and had 81 strikeouts. A 6-2, 192-pound, 18-year-old, he throws between 89 and 93 mph, usually settling in around 90, according to Bryan Lambe, a special assistant to general manager Omar Minaya.
With their third round pick, No. 102 overall, they chose Robert Shields, a 6-foot, 220-pound shortstop out of Division 2 Florida Southern College.
Shields, a junior, hit .345, with five homers, two triples, 19 doubles, 37 RBI and 10 steals in 57 games this season. He hit .329 over his three-year career and started 167 games. He was a second-team all-Sunshine State Conference selection as a sophomore.
I don't know where it all went from here but that was the first two picks, now lets see if they have the confidence to skip out on the college bid and step into the real world.
