Ben Roberts a Diamondback!!

Woo Hoo!!

As a Missoula native and a huge Diamondbacks fan, it's pretty frickin' cool that Roberts got drafted in the 7th round by the Diamondbacks...even more cool is he'll probably start his career with the Osprey and get to sleep in his own bed every night! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Looking forward to watching his MLB career develop....assuming he signs. :|

Be smart Ben, go to Wazzu.

I doubt 7th rounders sign for 7 figures so go to school. You'll only get better. :thumb:

meh....he can ALWAYS go to school....

there were several players in the draft this year who's stock went DOWN after returning to school.... :|

The problem is that if he steps foot in a classroom at WSU, he cannot be drafted again until after his Junior year. That is a huge factor in the decision.

He's got to be good if my former coach said he was the best player he has ever coached. Hathaway has coached some amazing ball players, especially when I played (not me, my teammates). I wish him the best. :thumb:
