1988 Draft Discussion

[Matt]

Pick is in, 3B Randall. My scout loves him, crossing my fingers.

Pawt is up.

[Carlos]

Eww, if you guys are talking about the AIDS, then I want no part of whatever group outings you all have.

Pawt is up.

My scout loved him as well. He was at the top of my remaining draft board.

Love the Chad Rowe pick by Hyundai. He was my #1 overall player.

Can't wait to see how the kid progresses.

Chad Rowe was a coin-flip with Daly.

Hyundai and me definitely have the same scout.

I'm kicking myself that I passed on him.

How did he not go sooner?

[BradZ]

Ok, I think I'm going crazy. The last pick, LF Kel Brown, is not in my in-game draft list. That's strange.

Got our Jerry Daly consolation prize with OF Shawn Watson. Our scout loves him; he's hitting well in college; we need OF depth in our system.

Any one else high (or low) on him or my last pick, 1B Willie Marshall? We now have our scouts #3 (Okamoto), #4 (Marshall) and #9 (Watson) prospects on the draft list. I know it's been beaten to death, but I'm not crazy about the discrepancies in scouting.

My scout says Marshall = HOF.

My scout says Marshall = HOF.

So does mine, but I was still really skeptical of taking him. I went back and forth with him and Daly and convinced myself Daly had a better chance to still be there in the early 2nd. I just see Marshall ending up as a 4-6-6-4-4 guy for whatever reason. But my scout loves him... and he's been crushing the ball in the Cape.

I found Kel Brown in my Player Search List, but I swear my draft list goes from Hugh Brown to Zach Brown. No Kel. WTF?

How can a player just be missing from a draft list?

[Matt]

In the utility? Aren't they removed when they are picked?

[BradZ]

In the utility? Aren't they removed when they are picked?

No, in-game.

I'll be more than willing to say that I'm doing something wrong or stupid, but I just need to know what it is. I can't really feel good about making my upcoming pick if someone with early 2nd round talent doesn't even show up in my draft list.
