It looks like they spent 17 mill on the draft this year. Since the Wieters debacle I have said I would not start caring until they started investing in the draft. It had been 10 years of pretty much drafting with money as their #1 issue and they sucked for it. Since 08 they have at least invested in the draft. The draft is often a crap shoot in MLB, but if you don't go after the guys who have the most talent you make it even less likely that you will succeed. Not that Huntington needs my approval, but this is another example of the type of draft a team like the Pirates need to have every year.
