That high school guy

At the end of March we did a long rant about criticism of the way Littlefield has drafted and esp. with the Paul Maholm over Jeff Allison pick which embodied, for a lot of critics, the college vs. high school options. That long post may not have been our most shining moment, but there are some good points in there. FWIW, Allison is out of baseball again. At Lynchburg, in five starts and 30 innings, Maholm has allowed zero homers, eighteen strikeouts, nine walks, and 24 hits for a 1.29 ERA. He may never make the big leagues but he looks like a better prospect than Allison.
