[農場] The Scouting Directors, NL East
http://www.baseballprospectus.com/article.php?articleid=6294
by Bryan Smith
Scouting Director: Dana Brown (Drafts Run: 2002-2006)
Best Player Produced: Ryan Zimmerman (1st round, 2005)
Best Prospect in Minors: Christopher Marrero (1st round, 2006)
Notable Steals: Jason Bergmann (11th round, 2002), Marco Estrada (6th round,
2005)
Five-Round Strategy: 25 total picks. 52% college, 40% high school, 4% junior
college, 4% Latin.
Strategy in a Nutshell: For most of his tenure, Brown had the hardest job of
any scouting director in baseball, picking with the restraints of the game's
most limited budget. It led to Brown taking relievers at the top of his draft
twice--connecting with Chad Cordero, and perhaps missing with Bill Bray.
Since the Expos moved to Washington, Brown's resume looks much better,
particularly selecting Zimmerman before going with an otherwise high
school-oriented draft in 2006. The addition of Mike Rizzo to the front office
as AGM might be a source of some debate internally; during Rizzo's successful
tenure in Arizona, few scouting directors picked college players at a higher
rate. Combining the talents of Brown and Rizzo in one department is the
possibly most interesting combination in a draft room since Logan White
worked for Paul DePodesta.
2007 Draft Crystal Ball: The Nationals choose sixth overall this season, and
then Brown will also lead off the supplemental first round. At six, I think
the Nationals are hoping that Matt Wieters falls to them. If he doesn't, this
is the first logical destination for Andrew Brackman. Otherwise, Ross
Detwiler and Jarrod Parker are possibilities. At 31, I think outfielder Corey
Brown would a great fit for the franchise, and would be a player both Brown
and Rizzo can surely agree on.
