With the Number One Pick...


...of the 2009 draft, the New York Yankees select...from Texas High School in Texarkana, Texas...Slade Heathcott.

Heathcott is the first position player to be taken by the Yankees in the first round since Carl Henry back in 2005. He is a five-tool outfielder who brings plenty of promise to the future of the organization.

His accomplishments include:

* 2007 1st Team All-District
* 2007 WSSSA World Series MVP
* 2008 1st Team All-District
* Texas Rangers Area Code Team

Speaking of Carl Henry, where is he now? Batting a weak career .222 in A ball. Might as well go back to school, get a degree, and try a different profession.

I have, and always will be, a true Yankees fan. Don't give me that bandwagon crap; bandwagon fans are for people who need to belong.
