My favorite picks of the draft, aside from the obvious first rounders:
5.13 Strikers - Luis Ortiz P, Texas
6.07 Anno Catuli (me)- Marcos Molina P, NYM
2.15 Magnificent Bastards - Reynaldo Lopez SP, Washington
2.16 Big Tymers-Spencer Adams SP, CWS
5.02 Grand Theft Votto - Michael Gettys OF, San Diego
Wow, I guess I liked a lot of pitchers.

I just tried to avoid anyone who wouldn't be a #1 or #2 starter eventually. It's just too easy to find fours and fives, even in a league of 18 teams.

I don't think I've ever had more than one minor league pitcher on my RJEL roster at a time. This year, with my last pick, I grabbed Blackburn simply because he is a Giant and I never have Giants on my team.
I hate all pitchers, even and especially, minor league ones.

yeah, I decided this year that I wasn't going to draft pitchers, but I ran out of ideas at the end. I had a couple carryovers from last year because as long as I already owned them it was okay, but I doubt I will keep taking more unless they're really close to the majors.
I think other people don't like guys with medium talent but close to the majors (or in the majors) nearly as much as I do. Or Rule 5 picks. I'm not sure why I get so excited about those. I think Canha actually has a future though, I almost picked him up in my NL-only last year.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.
