1st 4 rounds, 4 relievers, all with 2 pitches only.

2 of the best lefty arms in the draft, 1 dropped to #23 and the other to #56. That doesn't include Jeff Cooper at #35.

When what your scout perceives as a can't miss great player dips to the 2nd round, that's usually a sign to tell you that most other scouts didn't see that in that player.

And I'm guessing the vast majority of the time, the minority scout's opinion will be wrong, so while it may not always happen, it's probably somewhat safe to assume that dude isn't as good as your scout thinks.



This is why I wish OOTP would add a projected round each player would go in. If my scout has a dude with 79 potential but shows he's projected to go in round 8, that tells me he's not exactly the can't miss prospect that my scout thinks he is.

26 picks, 8 catchers.......

O/U is set at 2.5 for the # of sims it takes for them to become the only 80 potential prospects from the draft.

Under for sure according to my algorithms.

Have a dude in the minors that needs 3 days to recover from dehydration...

Really? It takes you 3 full days to drink some gatorade?

He was the only guy I had listed above Grey on my draft list. Saw his pitcher rating as well. Wondered if it would be possible to have him be both.

bad nachos at a hockey game, been there. food poisoning is a mother

Pretty happy with my draft. Can't believe I got Mitchell at 14. Got my sleeper pick at #2 (wasn't hard I guess lol) Preston Moore. A decent pitcher......with godly hitter ratings.

Got a lot of good players in the draft last year, this year not so much. Not very happy with my first two picks, high school guys that can't field

Fantastic catch there.

He has very good hitter ratings, wow.

Damn, Preston Moore was #3 on my list... Those hitter ratings...

He was my top overall choice. I had a little hope....great pickup.
