Yes.

Do teams legitimately have 1200+ person big boards or are they virtually picking names out of a hat at a certain point?
Keith Law
3:55
No, more like 500-600 names. There will be picks on day two where other teams might not even have magnets for those players (on their boards).

Are you watching Good Omens after the draft? Episode 1 was very solid.
Keith Law
3:55
Yes, I saved it for after the draft and after I finish Fleabag. Also still working through Doctor Who ... maybe they'll let a Dalek announce one of the picks in the second round tonight?

Please correct me if I am off-base here, but I normally wouldn't expect you to rank someone like Vaughn (college RH first baseman) as high as you have him. So the bat is really that good?
Keith Law
3:56
It's really that good, and who in this class might be better, especially once you consider the certainty/proximity of a college position player over a high school player?
Josh

What is the best comp for Vaughn, upside-wise?
Keith Law
3:57
I have said a few times I think his swing reminds me of Goldschmidt's, and the profile overall reminds me of Hoskins', just in a shorter package.
Andrew

Do any of the three, Goss, Thompson or Wolf make it to Texas A&M?
Keith Law
3:57
Matt Thompson might. The others don't.
Jay

Any chance the A’s take Brooks Lee?
Keith Law
3:57
No.

How do you respond to the claims that Rutschman's bat is better than Vaughn's because Adley put up better stats in the same conference?
Keith Law
3:58
That's pretty lazy.
Brian

Is the draft "fun" for you, or is it "work"?
Keith Law
3:58
Both of these things can be true at the same time, you know.

OK, I'm going to wrap this up now so I can revise the mock a little (and get a few minutes with my daughter since she's about to come home from school). I'll do the live Periscope at 7 pm ET through Twitter, then I'll write up a day one recap/analysis tonight. Tomorrow's plan: A YouTube video where I discuss day one with Jeff Passan; a chat in the afternoon, probably at 2 pm. Then I'll start working up team by team recaps. Thank you all for reading and for all your questions - enjoy the draft!
