Hosmer, Hosmer he's our man

Well the Royals ended all the speculation today selecting Eric Hosmer, a high school first baseman with the third pick in the 2008 Rule Four Draft. Hosmer is compared by many scouts to Casey Kotchman and is expected to rise quickly through the system once signed. 2011 might be about the time we should expect his debut. I'm not going to pretend to know a ton about him or any of the draft's other prospects, but this is definitely newsworthy and if I'm your source for Royals news, I want to be there. I'll post some scouting reports tonight or tomorrow to give you all an idea of his ability and ceiling.
