Former 1st Round Pick Drew Meyer Signs Minor League Contract
The 2002 draft is seen as one of the worst in Astros history. 1st round pick Derick Grigsby never made it above low A ball. 2nd rounder Mitch Talbot was traded to the Rays and got some time in the bigs last season. 3rd rounder Rory Shortell never made it to AA and played indy ball last season. 4th rounder Mark McLemore got a taste of the bigs in 2007 but disappeared after that. 5th round pick Pat Misch, turned down the Astros signing and was drafted in the 7th round the next year by the Giants. Has pitched parts of 3 seasons for the Giants and has yet to get his first MLB win. So as you can see, the 2002 draft is not much to write home about. In fact, since they have released Raymar Diaz and unless they re-sign Chance Douglas, who is a minor league free agent, there will be one player from the 2002 draft on any Astro affiliated roster in 2009. That player was drafted in the 45th round and is Ryan McKeller, who pitched at Corpus Christi last season.
