Sure, the labels will exist, but assuming San Francisco signs both players, their performances are what will dictate their speed to the Major Leagues, as is the case with all 50 picks in the recently completed First-Year Player Draft.

Among the notable draftees on Day Two is a trio of players from Southwest Missouri State, including right-hander Matt Palmer, southpaw Andrew Jefferson and outfielder Dant'e Brinkley, all of whom were scouted by Todd Thomas.

"The second day a lot of weird stuff happens," said Vice President, Player Personnel, Dick Tidrow. "It's not normal (to draft three teammates). They just seemed to fit in the round that was up there and one of them was a guy that was passed over until late in the draft."

In the 26th round, the Giants got David Rierson from the University of Arizona, a right-handed pitcher that attended the same high school as Paul Konerko of the White Sox.

All told, the Giants selected 32 pitchers in the two days, 22 of which came from the college ranks.

"We're always trying to get pitching," said Tidrow. "We can't function without it, so we try and go out and get it."
