I just hope I'm at home so I can see their demands and whether they're fragile and...oh wait.

Another pitcher this year. Maybe I'll keep this one too. He might even be able to make it to the BBA before Swallows.

I took the guy I felt was the next best of the arms. As shiny as some of the hitters are on the board, I have to continue to stock pile arms......

He should definitely make it to the bigs before Swallows. He's really a 2039 ammy. Excellent pick.

I'm a little more excited about this draft for the second round. I think there could be some solid 2-3 rounders still around this time.

Absolutely. It's a hell of a draft to have three 2nd round picks. They're pretty late, but the draft is deep. I'm excited about several options that I anticipate may be available.

Can’t go wrong with the #4 pick.

Should get a guy who can start almost immediately.

By the way, I'll probably do the draft articles again this year.

Time is a fascinating thing.

Nice pick. If you didn’t take him, I would have.

And I definitely considered Sato as well. Another nice pick.

I'm hoping Winston turns into an innings eater. I'll just need to make sure to have a decent infield yet when he arrives.

Life is a bit more beautiful when time is measured by the half inning rather than the half hour.

Not sure exactly what it means, but I find it generally interesting to see the way the first round has broken by position over the past few seasons. Tempting to say teams are scouring for pitching, but there's also an element of class quality that goes into it, I'm sure.

As Joe noted in Slack, there is a weighting toward 3B this year, and a distinct lack of much of anything in the middle infield.
