    Anthony Rizzo is a flat out steal in the sixth round. And I’m a Brewer homer, but Hiura THAT early? Going to be interesting to see how all y’all fare at the CI positions.

      Yeah I've expressed some concern about 1B

      Carlos Santana is someone we need to prioritize.

        Trout has been #1 for so long that it seems strange to think that he is now #3 or even lower. It was inevitable that a 230 pound player would stop stealing bases.

          Ramon Laureano is a big surprise.

          Gallo pls

          Also like Paxton at this point. Or Mancini. I think he's preferable to Santana if for no other reason than positional flexibility.
          In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

            He stole 11 last year, granted it's about half of the previous 2 seasons, but still nothing to dismiss. And what does a broken kneecap do to Yelich? Nothing? Something? We won't know until the regular season for sure...

            Don't forget that Trout was playing with a sore foot last year that eventually required him to end his season and have surgery...so is he stealing again? Or does he settle into a role as a masher in the middle of the lineup?

              I just don’t see much of an argument between Trout and Yelich - you can hardly go wrong with either. I mean, we’re talking about two guys with well over .400 OBPs and well over .600 SLG. They both can run, though I do think Yelich has the edge in SBs. Trout, with Rendon on board could put up absurdly high R/RBI totals.

              If I were to be critical of anything, it’s the risk of not having any CIs this late. But that’s nitpicking. All of those pucks are solid.

              The other team I’m impressed with so far is the team drafting 15

                We took Santana and Lynn.

                      btw the david fletcher pick was a fun one. Guy timed out and seemingly had one player for later in his queue.

                          Correa is going too late - I think there is a better chance of reward than penalty even in an earlier round.

                          Is Ohtani a hitter or pitcher?

                            Ohtani is both.

                            We are about to pick Sano, if any of you guys in the group disagree, you better hurry!

                                5x5 with BA. 2 catchers. 50 rounds, no transactions after the draft.
