Inaugual Draft

[Chappy]

North Carolina selects 23-year-old Norberto Le?n as the first player in franchise history.

He's a bit undersized for a starting pitcher (5'9", 185) so he reminds me a bit of Pedro Martinez... hopefully he can be as good.

I very nearly took Le?n. Lozano won out because of the year younger plus he's a finished product.

Glad to see it going. I will try to keep an eye for my picks. Is Trading picks allowed?

Trading picks for the inaugural draft might not work out but if you have something in my let me know. Trading amateur draft picks are definitely allowed for future reference.

Left handed Starter Jorge Sepulveda becomes the first player on the New Jersey Athletics roster.

I have a list in, and am set to auto, so it will jump past me!

that being said, the first 3 pitchers taken were the top 3 on my list!

That's another problem with drafting early... a full 26 picks until I get another crack, however there's some real talent in this draft from what I've seen and some fantastic depth in some positions too.

Yeah, I would have preferred the guy with the developed 10 stuff, especially since it could actually be higher than 10.

Yeah, I hate the long wait I'll have between picks...  But the good news is that if I'm torn between two players when my next pick comes along, I have a decent shot at landing them both.

3 young SPs out of the first 3 selections jeje

All 3 picks are should be the top pitchers in the league too. They look to be studs.

There's always a good side to it. Can't wait for the draft to keep going so I can see all of my shortlisted picks fly by to other teams

[yuda]

Yeah I haven't even bothered putting a list together for my 2nd and 3rd round picks yet. I'll start looking when we hit mid second round, probably.
