      Took a big stretch to take SS Tristan Raimondi. Good in the field, decent with the bat, and we had enough OF's in our system to pass on a couple guys we liked.

        Not a stretch at all. He was on my short list even for #8.

          The last time I drafted a high school outfielder, it was exactly 20 seasons ago, and that player was Steve Suarez.

          If Zachary Smith ends up half the player Suarez became, I'll be happy with this pick.

          Smith does not fit my usual profile, but I'm enamored with his ability to make contact, be patient at the plate, and hit with enough power to be dangerous.

          He's impressively far along in his development for a high school prospect, to the point I wouldn't be surprised if he were the first player drafted in the 2000s to make his BLB debut.

            Great pick. I was going to try to move up to get him if he fell a few more spots.

                    Any under bettors on my pick can send me 10% when you get a chance.

                            If a manager fails to make a pick. Will be autoed straight away? I hope so...

                              And there it goes....

                              I hate seeing early picks get auto'd, however, Spot lucked out. OF Josh Chandler was the top player on my board and I think he has a very good chance to be the best hitter in this draft.

                              Windy City is up.

                                Yes, and they are turned on to Auto for future picks as well (though, that owner can log in and change their setting back to non-auto).
