Re: 2046, BBA Draft Chatter
I would have taken Hodge even if I was #5. Very happy with this pick.

Re: 2046, BBA Draft Chatter
There were likely some more sensible options with my pick, but I wanted to roll the dice on the possible superstardom of Unem Ploid.

That was not an easy pick. But hard to pass up a guy with a 71% GB rating.

Re: 2046, BBA Draft Chatter
while i would have been ok with a lot of the pitchers above me, fratelli was #2 on my board after cano so i was thrilled he fell to 12. I actually have relatively decent rotation depth, but catching is a glaring black hole for me across my entire organization.

Re: 2046, BBA Draft Chatter
I think OOTP's 80 grade on Fratelli is a bit generous, but yeah, great pick at #12 and should be really good.usnspecialist wrote: ↑Sun Mar 07, 2021 12:26 pmwhile i would have been ok with a lot of the pitchers above me, fratelli was #2 on my board after cano so i was thrilled he fell to 12.

Re: 2046, BBA Draft Chatter
I'm surprised Bernard lasted so long. Gonna be a great pitcher. I almost took him, but decided to zag while the rest of the league zigs.

Re: 2046, BBA Draft Chatter
i would agree, but his hitting profile is perfect for my park, and his defense should be average at worst.Lane wrote: ↑Sun Mar 07, 2021 12:57 pmI think OOTP's 80 grade on Fratelli is a bit generous, but yeah, great pick at #12 and should be really good.usnspecialist wrote: ↑Sun Mar 07, 2021 12:26 pmwhile i would have been ok with a lot of the pitchers above me, fratelli was #2 on my board after cano so i was thrilled he fell to 12.

Re: 2046, BBA Draft Chatter
NOT who I would have taken. In no way thought we would be back to my 2nd round pick, especially not with enough time to make it go to Auto, by this point today. Dang.

Went for projectable pitching. Got two young lefties I like a lot at 18 and 28.

Re: 2046, BBA Draft Chatter
I like him a lot and forgot about him. Had my eye on the 2 C's with big power. Could of had 1 at 18 but passed hoping he'd make it to 28.crobillard wrote: ↑Mon Mar 08, 2021 7:31 amIf I can somehow sign this impossible catcher, I will be very happy.

Re: 2046, BBA Draft Chatter
I had Patterson at the top of my draft list but decided to go with Seymour as a potential replacement for Zalapa next year.
