Whoa, whoa, best record in the National League.
Just a few weeks if you were to tell me that, I would have said G.T.F.O.

At 9am today, rounds 31 through 50 of the MLB draft will take place. You can follow online at MLB.com.
Here's a look at several of the Dodgers' draftees in the first 30rounds. My personal favorite is Andrew Pevsner, the 16th rounder outof Johns Hopkins, who was born on October 15, 1988.
[h3]1st Round: Zach Lee, RHP, McKinney, TX, DOB 9/13/91[/h3]
As you may have heard, Lee has committed to LSU in both football and baseball. From Jim Kleinpeter of The Times-Picayune:
Lee did not return calls to his cell phone, but LSU football coach Les Miles said Lee is sold on playing college football.
"Zach wants to come to LSU, get a degree and play football and baseball for the Tigers," Miles said in a statement released through the LSU sports informationdepartment. "I met with Zach and his parents today, and I think thatthey are looking at LSU as a great opportunity both academically andathletically. Zach is an outstanding student, and he's excited aboutthe college experience."
LSU baseball coach Paul Mainieri, whose program desperately needspitching, said he was surprised Lee was picked so high, given his highbut undisclosed asking price.
"To my knowledge, they (the Dodgers) had not had any conversationswith him about whether he was signable, " Mainieri said. "He probablyhad the reputation of being the toughest to sign in the country. Hisasking price was through the roof. He doesn't believe they are going togive him that. On the other hand, why would the Dodgers take him?"
[h3]2nd Round: Ralston Cash, RHP, Lakeview Academy, GA, 8/20/91[/h3]
Cash committed to the University of Georgia, but looks like he isready to sign with the Dodgers, thanks in part to family ties. FromJames Wolfe of the Gainesville Times:
[font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]The way everything seemed to come together Tuesday has left Cash fairly convinced that he will be signing with the Dodgers.
"Most likely the big chance is that I’ll be minor league bound," he said.
PreviouslyCash had given a commitment to the University of Georgia and was unsureabout whether he would take a major league contract or go to college.
"Butwith everything working out the way it did and the Dodgers being agreat organization, I just feel like I need to go do it,’ he said.
Adding to his sense that the situation is perfect, is the fact that Cash’s cousin, Ethan Martin, is in the Dodgers’ minor league system. Martin was a first-round pick for the Dodgers in 2008 out of Stephens County High.[/font]
The Dodgers flew Cash out to Dodger Stadium, according to Morgan Lee of AccessNorthGA.com, who further indicated Cash is willing to sign:
"I’m going to go straight into the (Dodgers) system," said Cash, whopaced the Lions from the mound and the plate over the past two seasons."At this point we’ll just start negotiating with Los Angeles on acontract after the draft is over."
[h3]3rd Round - Leon Landry, CF, L/R, LSU, 9/20/89[/h3]
Landry was teammates with Michael Dean, who was also picked by theDodgers, in the eighth round. From Jim Kleinpeter of The TimesPicayune:
Said Landry: "I just ran into him (Dean) in the hallway and gave hima big hug. We told each other we can't get away from each other thateasily. I'm pretty sure he'll be my roommate where ever we go."
[h3]4th Round - James Baldwin III, CF, L/R, Pinecrest High School, NC, 10/10/91[/h3]
Baldwin's father was a former major league pitcher, who pitched for the Dodgers in 2001. According to Patrick Love of The Pilot, Baldwin committed to Elon, but now looks like he will sign with the Dodgers:
Calling it a "dream come true," the senior outfielder was drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgersin the fourth round with the 142nd overall pick. Previously committedto play baseball at Elon, he now says he’ll turn pro out of highschool, following in the footsteps of his father, Pinecrest pitchingcoach James Baldwin Jr., a 10-year veteran of Major League Baseball.
"We just had to go along with the flow," James Baldwin III said,noting that at the beginning of baseball season, he didn’t know thatbeing drafted out of high school was an option. "I’m just trying tofollow in my dad’s footsteps, because I love the game of baseball."
[h3]5th Round - Jacob Lemmerman, SS, R/R, Duke, 5/4/89[/h3]
Lemmerman is a college junior and a likely sign. From Javier Serna of the News & Observer:
Lemmerman grew up in Southern California and was at home with family, monitoring more than one computer.
"I took my eye off the computer for a second," Lemmerman said. "Mydad was on another computer, and he noticed the Dodgers had the nextpick. Then he started going crazy. He came up and hugged me."

[h3]6th Round - Kevin Gausman, RHP, Grandview HS, CO, 1/16/91[/h3]
Gausman, like Lee, committed to LSU, and according to Ryan Casey of the Denver Post, Gausman seems unlikely to sign with the Dodgers:

Gonna have to just wait and see.
I doubt it, simply because that would be like Frank waving his arms saying "I'm not gonna spend any money, ever!"

Just seems pretty fishy to me, given the situation.
Would not surprise me one bit.

I'm reading that if they can't sign Zach Lee, they'll use the money to go after the 6th rounder who's supposed to be a tough sign.

That 6th rounder is Kevin Gausman, who's also committed to LSU.
Leading up to the draft, I thought Gausman would be a great pick for us in the 1st round, but it appears that he really wants to play at LSU.
So yeah they could use the $$ for Lee on Gausman, but there's nothing to say that he would take it.
Another thing to consider is that next years draft should be better than this years, by a lot. You could make a decent argument that punting the pick is a wise decision either way. The lost year of development for the pick would negate most of the advantage to doing that though
