As usual a few wonderful random debut surprises showed up in the draft as well. Tom Glavine was one. The other was Justin Verlander. Verlander ended up being the 12th and final pick of the 1st round....going to the Birmingham Slammers. The Slammers have won two straight rings and 4 total. Now it will be interesting to see if they lose Kershaw to free agency. If they manage to sign him again, they will have Kershaw(3 Cy Young awards), Felix Hernandez and Verlander in the rotation.
