david price, his last year at vanderbilt. pitched 133 innings, then he got sent back to the minor leagues not just for more conditioning but to be able to throw his balls when he is behind in the count. you have to be able to you know evaluate yourself at this level which is different than the nfl, different than the nba, where you can go right from college drilling 1 right into the major sports. so to me, yeah, strays boying might be ready as far as physically but, mentally, can he tell hills body to go 200 plus innings right now? can he tell his body to throw a 102 breaking ball to pujols when he is standing right there. >> let's look at some of the guys who have been picked number 1, pitchers. not a lot of household names in that list. >> man it was nobody that through the ball better than mcdonald from usc. but he had arm and back problems. sidney bell cher was there in cincinnati, all those guys made it. paul wilson was the guy with the mets, tremendous air, he actually came over to the reds a little bit later but just b

. >> johnny: david price the top selection talked about his years at vanderbilt and how they should not rush him along. >> it's a big difference, it is. going from this 7 days to 5 days is probably the biggest thing to me. can you definitely feel it on your arm every time you go out. over the course of the season where you make 30 to 35 starts whereas in college, you make 15 to 16. that's twice as many starts. >> ray: taking to what rob said a couple of innings ago, ten years it took tampa bay to move that draft pick. >> rob: i talked to mike grissold, he already signed 11 of their 21 draft picks. yes, they will be negotiating with strasburg. will he pitch in the major league? they said, we don't know but no rush. that's what the rays did last year. i often said, bob, in 2007, he was reliever of the year in the summer league up in connecticut. he can pitch out of the bullpen but there is no reason to make him go up there after 110 innings pitched in college and have him go out there and try to start five games in september. >> bob: adam dunn, a perfect night with an rbi hit and two

. >> [inaudible] >> vanderbilt, she will be here for the summer but you won't be here, you will be in harvard, right? >> i come here. >> give her advice, will you? >> it sounds like she has launched. >> nice to see you. privileged. i am michael smerconish. >> it is a great pleasure to meet you. >> nice to see you. >> that could haunt you if the film that in your hand. [inaudible conversations] >> i was explaining to your wife there was a particular column i had written a few years ago reflecting on the midterm elections and how i felt the party had gotten off the rails and the republican party, right, and from that particular column spurring the idea laying off the road map and that was long before the 08 election so there's a chapter on substance followed by a chapter that tells a political story. the flip-flop between the two. >> he had an outline where he wanted to go. >> i can tell. >> just writing. >> i had great advice from an english professor in college and he said the best way to write is to start and i've never forgotten that, just get moving. he didn't give credit to church

i know he was making six figure income, probably $200,000, $300,000, went on to a better job at vanderbilt as a private university, the board of regents is controlled by conservatives. the conservative regents at duke protected, protected the accuser and protected the lynching. they supported it. why? because of duke's good name. you get rid of the white racist. there's -- conservatives have efor must leverage over these universities, because they are the biggest contributors, because there are whole legislatures, which are run by republicans. but that's what i said earlier. there is no academic reform movement, there are few isolated groups. most of which take a distance from me, because i've been so attacked. but you know, they're good people, and i'm sorry, we can't mention them now since i just said they take a distance from me, but they do. but it's a handful of 501c3's. i wish the way the republican party would wake up. there's no difference in the private institute. right now at the university of southern california, a genocide am staple of the profit mohammed or allegedly of the pr

paul, vanderbilt minor is gone, drew, what is drew's last name?-- >> so recollection. >> yeah, i went blk.a great arm there are four or five pitchers rated highly and we know the nats have it so we're in the situation the next 8 or 10 minutes that we're going to be able to find out if they go the route of two pitches. there's never been a ball club that had two picks out of the top 10. >> that's what makes it exciting is all those openingses available and even if everything else doesn't play out you still have steven strasbourg at number 1. >> i've set in those rooms as a manager and we have boards that you have end up having 100 people listed in that board and you always to for the best player and if the best player they feel would be a shortstop they'll pick that guy. but they have rated and ranked them and you saw how many people in that war room. it's not one person making the decision, it's a collective decision and right now they know who they are going to pick if he is left on the board and who they are not going to pick if he is scratched
