Well I got bored with football over and still 3 weeks until my first auction and joined an NFBC league last night. I drew the 11th pick of 15 and so far we are moving pretty quickly.
I had 9 hitters and Scherzer, DeGrom and Sale in the que as considerations. No surprises in the top 10 except maybe Story going. Arenado got picked right in front of me at 10 so for me the choice seemed easy take DeGrom here and grab a hitter in round 2. Sale went right after DeGrom at 12. The turn was hitters and Kluber, while Lindor went right in front of me at pick 19. Not sure I would have taken him anyway with some of the other choices there still.
So the 2nd pick, 20th overall was harder. I considered Goldy, Altuve, and Bregman. All 3 offered some real positives, but in the end I thought that Altuve's stats were worth the most here. I'll get 15+ HR's and 25+ steals to go with a great BA anchor from 2B. I like all 3 a lot and definitely coulc have made the wrong choice, but I don't think Altuve can hurt me that much even in his down year he had quite a bit of value and hoepfully his knee is good to go.
