Drafted in the 2nd round (45th overall) by the Oakland Athletics in 1998 (signed for $1,000,000)

C Gerald Laird was the second-highest unsigned pick from the 1998 draft and was expected to sign with the Athletics before the start of the closed period. He has admirable defensive skills and speed for his position but did not show the power that was expected this spring. Scouts believe he could become another Jason Kendall who is capable of hitting .290 with 25-30 stolen bases.
