| 3 | Cleveland (3) | C.C. Sabathia (9-1) could be Indians' first 20-game winner since Gaylord in '74 |
| 4 | Mets (2) | Mets had sandwich pick in draft, but Kobayashi ate it |
| 5 | Arizona (5) | Melvin still suffers fear of clowns, won't go on "Best Damn Sports Show Period" |

| 11 | Oakland (15) | Just to fit in, two of their draft picks asked to go on the DL |
| 12 | Seattle (12) | Before signing Aumont, M's must clear room on their 40-man interpreters roster |
| 13 | Minnesota (11) | To keep his quad healthy, Mauer will only crouch in odd innings |
| 14 | Philadelphia (17) | Hamels has an unlimited future, and his present isn't too shabby, either |
| 15 | Florida (18) | Dutch pitcher Vanden Hurk hurls 6 no-hit innings — not bad wearing wooden spikes |
| 16 | Toronto (19) | After another Stanley Cup lands in U.S., Canada clearly now a baseball country |
| 17 | St. Louis (22) | Cards sign Percival, continue efforts to reunite the entire 2002 Angels roster |

| 27 | Washington (27) | Retired generals already critical of Nats' war-room strategy for draft |
