2019 Draft Discussion Thread

[mstreeter06]

Any Ammy Draft discussion and picks will be here! I'll get Statslab ready this weekend (likely today) and let everyone know when we move from here in the forum to Statslab.

Georgia has the #1 overall pick for the 2019 Ammy Draft (GA and IA finished with the same record but GA went 3-1 against IA during the season so it gets rewarded with the higher pick). and is free to pick whenever they are ready. Iowa, Idaho, Washington, and Maryland round out the top 5 picks.

WOW!

[mstreeter06]

I plan to have Statslab ready for drafting later today

[mstreeter06]

We're good to go in Statslab for the draft. Georgia can kick us off whenever!

We'll start a draft timer beginning on Tuesday morning at 8am (figure it'll be more fair to give everyone a full week day warning before starting the timer).

I went in to this draft with like a mind set of i have no picks, then i see that i pick 8 times just not till the 4th round

When 2018 ended I had no idea what I was going to do about getting quality middle infielders as they are hard to come by in the draft. A year later I have Steve Baker drafted and MacIntosh as my lead off hitter and SS. Not too bad.

Ya and I have drafted Jeff Padgett 27 SS for Virgina, Tommy Holm 21 SS Washington, Chris MacIntosh 21 SS New York, Ben Foley 24 Ontario. As you see 3 of the 4 are STARS I should have kept 1 of them dam I need a SS now lucky you

With the first pick, I went with the Pitcher I felt had the best upside and potential for reaching it.  Kel Walden.  With my system needs, going young will hopefully be better for my future.

Baker 2B was my second choice and a sure thing top of the order #1/2 bat. 

[Troyaof]

Just wish you had gotten back to me. I would have paid well for that pick. You could have had a better SP and 2b for the 1 pick.

I have 3 1st rd picks, 2 2nd and 2 3rd. I'd like to trade them all for picks next year. Would listen to players too.

I was actually glad when I saw Simmons was pitching well for you, when I looked recently. I was glad we both had benefits from the deal.

With the first pick, I went with the Pitcher I felt had the best upside and potential for reaching it.  Kel Walden.  With my system needs, going young will hopefully be better for my future.

Baker 2B was my second choice and a sure thing top of the order #1/2 bat.

Funny you mention that, those were my top 2 choices as well. Great pick with Kel. He should be an ace.

I'm less certain what to do going forward with what amounts to 3 lead off type of hitters so I'll likely just load the top of my order with speed and contact with MacIntosh, Thomas and Baker and then get to the RBI guys.
