For someone who says he's half checking-out on the draft, Bene has a hell of a team. I can't believe Goslin lasted that long on the worst of the Big 16 franchises. An absolute steal. Now I have to decide who to take with four guys I really want/need: one of the three that only one person else can take or the guy who might go undrafted if I don't take him, but everyone (almost) can take and I really need, too. All tactics now. Like playing poker, I have to try to read the room.

Chuck Klein should have gone twelve rounds ago. Seeing him and Abreu lingering out there forever and ever and ever was rough. Rough draft to have selected a PHI player in the first round I guess.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.

Problem is, the pitchers you need to pull it off are wanted by everyone else. I got around that by picking them early .. which of course has it's negatives.

SPREADSHEET:
Small update: I automated the Wildcards on the Snapshot and "Let" tabs.
The only renaming manual element (apart from the "Rounds" tab obvs) is the Positions section of the Snapshot.
--------
I was planning on modifying the Franchise selections for each team based on Franchise strength rather than the current alphabetical format
Something like:
column 1, strongest franchises
column 2, meh franchises
column 3, joke franchises
And maybe use different conditional formatting for each. That way you could get a good impression of a teams Franchise strength/weakness from a glance.
I'll see if I have time, or if it'll be worth it. Probably not for this draft.

FWIW, not commenting any further on the strength of franchises, here is the list of how many non-Big 16 franchises that each team still needs to take---everyone needs to take at least 11 (27 players - 16 Big 16 franchises):
Hacko--1
DMT--5
Feral--5
Heyelander--2
Johnny--4
Controller Jacobs--2
Jmareoff--3
Mookie--2
Revo--3
cavebird--4
Bene--3
frae--4
Ken--2
