Pounding the table for Dansby Swanson

You know the old saying, "once you go Commodore, you always end up drafting more." Or maybe that's just a saying that I just say... or perhaps I just made it up. The Astros drafted a pair of Vanderbilt Commodores early in the 2013 draft in Tony Kemp and Conrad Gregor. Both of these guys are very solid baseball players, albeit with some small holes in their game. If another Commodore is available when the Astros select tonight, they need to draft him. Dansby Swanson is a fellow Commodore, but he is the complete package at short stop.

Swanson has put up some very good numbers for a short stop this year in the SEC.
