The #SFGiants Draft Picks and their Twitter Accounts (that I could find)
A week ago today the Houston Astros kicked off the MLB Draft by taking Mark Appel with the first pick. The Giants, twenty-four picks later chose Christian Arroyo and then the continued rebuilding for the future officially was back on its way. In case you are hoping for news from the Giants draft picks and wondering where you might be able to hear them from, the prospects themselves are a great place to start. Keep in mind that eleven of the picks from 2012 did not sign, including their 7th, 10th, 11th, and 14th round picks. Nothing has been officially announced on the Giants website about picks signing, but slowly announcements of contract signings have been coming in. Picks are listed in the order they were picked by the Giants.
Christian Arroyo — @arroyo_c
Ryder Jones — @Jonesy_56
It’s official, starting my professional career with the San Francisco Giants and flying out to AZ Wednesday! #Blessed

So that’s what I could find, some of the findings in thanks to Lauren (@sfgiantsgirl). That list has ten picks pretty firmly in the Giants pocket, and from my own scouring on the twitter machine, I don’t think the first round pick is too far off.
This is great. Nice blog!
Thanks very much and appreciate the reblog!
Thank you for writing it!
Reblogged this on THE LIGHTER SIDE OF SPORTS and commented:
This is something a little different than most SFG Blogs and I love different!
Just personally “pre-welcomed” most of those listed. I spend a couple of weeks every February in Scottsdale watching the newbies & hopetobies. good times
What a great idea! Love the creative thinking behind this blog!!
