Diaz and Colmanerez we’re the others I was considering with Leon. They look like they should be solid contributors but maybe a little light on power. I will invariably give up power projection for a better hit tool, probably much to the detriment of my teams over the years. I do the opposite, and yet we both end up drafting in the top ten of winter drafts an equal amount.

It’s because there are a couple of sexy AF NL GMs winning these pennants every year.
Xoxoxo,

Ugh. Noel was definitely one of the names I was hoping would fall to my next pick. Some strikeout issues, but he has some of the best exit velocities in all of the minors. Nice pick, Patrick.

Joe, there’s a lot of things you don’t know about what goes down in the NL playoffs. Sorry we had to rescind your invitation for membership to the “Actual Good Teams of the NL” club. Looking forward to seeing you back in the club soon.

Damnit Mike, there goes another one off my shortlist for 2.03. Another excellent pick today.

KC chimes in for the first time in a long time…..I was really hoping one of those Picks between 9-13 would have slipped to 21. Good job dudes

This draft has been fire. My list is shrinking much faster than previous years.

I was really torn between my pick and one other guy. I am hoping the other guy falls through the cracks so I can get him in round 2 because he appears to have been a miss on FG.

Pineda was #1 on my list of IFAs. I had him above both of the young shortstop, above Céspedes, and above Pedro Leon. He was #3 overall on my list. I think Tracy got the steal of the draft so far when it comes to possible value v. where picked. For awhile there I started to think he might drop all the way to me at 2.03, but I know Connor would never allow that.
I like Gelof too. That's a name off my top tier I gave to the committee. Technically rated higher than Pineda on Fangraph's Oakland list.

I emailed Jeff a couple days ago just to let him know he is up next, but didn't hear back. Has anyone had any correspondence with him since the season ended? I hope we didn't lose him, but also don't want to let his pick expire on the 17th if his team is abandoned.

Rojas was on my list. If he can put it all together, he'll be dangerous. Ditto. With the exception of Sean's choices, and I mean Milwaukee's and the one that he recommended for Detroit, along with Angel Zerpa which just fell through the cracks, I've had every player on my list. I came prepared this Winter. And y'all mofos are tearing through my list like the football team does the town tramp after the high school championship game.

Whew! Nate dipped into my "Draft Grinder" collection. That was a Top-5 shot, Nate Dogg, but luckily not top 3. Nice pick! Here comes Pittsburgh's...

Pitt took the guy I almost took with my pick. Thought he might slide to the 2nd round until that crazy Zip projection came out.

Just a heads up, if my pick comes in the next couple days I probably won't get to it for a little bit. I'm on semi-vacation and have also yet to start my research. I'll try to get stuff more in line and hopefully will be ready at least a few days before my deadline.

I won't have my pick in until after the last team zips are up. I have a name already but want to make sure that there isn't a surprise projection that makes me change my mind.

Let the record show that Ty is a villain. He's not HAYES! level or even jeeM level of evil. Make no mistake though, our Ty is as evil as the sumbitch that invented Beanie Babies.
