With the regular season wrapped up, we now know the preliminary order of the 1st round of the 2011 draft. There will be 33 picks in the 1st round next year due to three teams failing to sign 2010 1st rounders.
This order may change as teams sign Type A free agents. Team with picks in the top half of the first round (down through #18 Oakland) have protected picks, meaning if they sign a Type A they will not lose the pick to the player's former team. Teams in the bottom half of the round (beginning with #19 Detroit) are not protected and will lose their pick if they sign a Type A free agent. The three comp picks (#7, 10, and 15) are also protected picks.
1. Pittsburgh Pirates 57-105
2. Seattle Mariners 61-101
3. Arizona Diamondbacks 65-97
4. Baltimore Orioles 66-96
5. Kansas City Royals 67-95
6. Washington Nationals 69-93
7. Arizona Diamondbacks (comp for Barret Loux)
8. Cleveland Indians 69-93
9. Chicago Cubs 75-87
10. San Diego Padres (comp for Karsten Whitson)
11. Houston Astros 76-86
12. Milwaukee Brewers 77-85
13. New York Mets 79-83

Looking at compensation picks:
ReplyDelete- Angels, A's, Mets, Cubs, Astros and Nationals (all possible landing spots for Crawford/Soriano to me) picks are protected.
- Tigers, White Sox, Red Sox, Braves, Giants, Phillies and Yankees picks are not protected!
It's a shame that the 1st Angels pick is protected! ;-(
