Jeff Zimmerman
7:15
Could happen but won't get picked as so.
7:16
I'm not listening. If anyone is and find out they are taking a break, let me know and we can all make beer runs.
Craig in CHI
7:16
How would you comp Trea Turner to Buxton? I see similar upsides?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:17
Trout - no surprise
I'm not sure how much Buxton can hit
And I lied, looks to be one minute per pick
Whoa - Zinkie goes off the board with Kershaw
Erik
7:18
Wow Kershaw #3?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:18
Zinkie and Gamble are two the best in the business. Those two picks will be heavily scrutinized.
You Oughta Know
7:19
Zinkie kept saying he doesn't trust the Goldy steals...
Erik
7:19
I guess he really wants a top pitcher and none will be around at the back of round 2?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:19
Mike's probably elated Goldy fell to him
Middle Picks
7:19
With Kershaw/Turner going 3/4 - This is great value for Podhorzer getting Goldschmidt.
Mike Podhorzer
7:19
holy crap, humidor nervousness for Goldschmidt?!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:20
pitcher #2 off the board
Ayee
7:20
Stupid question, but what is the set-up for this league?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:21
5x5 roto, 14 hitters and 9 pitchers on  Sirius 210 & XM 8. Several question about this
Cheese
7:21
I'm fine with every other pick before Goldy other than Blackmon. Buying 2017 too much there.
Erik
7:21
I've seen DVR go pitchers with his first four picks. Wouldn't be surprised if he does something similar here.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:21
betting Kluber
7:22
and right
XM Channel 87
7:23
Nice group of hitters left for the last three who took pitchers. Bryant, Rizzo, Donaldson
FanGraphs does it
7:23
Sporer/Collette gets a top 4 pitcher plus Bryant.  Nice job!
Craig in CHI
7:23
Sanchez! yuck!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:24
Mad Bum. Ms Bell might have some inside info on his health and fastball velocity
Erik
7:24
How early is too early for Gary Sanchez? Such a gap between him and all the other catchers.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:24
Late first for me
7:25
Like Lindor there. I have him over Correa. Not a popular pick but the extra steals are huge.
mebaran
7:25
Two catcher league, depending on how you adjust for position scarcity, Sanchez can rank pretty high.
Cheese
7:25
It's amazing how far 1B has fallen in recent years. Only 1 in the first round.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:25
Agree
SporerFan69
7:25
And LABR is 2 catcher, right? Sanchez at 16 is totally justifiable
Craig in CHI
7:25
I'll take Ramirez or JD over Sanchez, Thanks.
You Oughta Know
7:26
Would you be comfortable pairing Sanchez with a top 4 arm at the turn knowing you'd need another 25+ picks for another bat?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:26
That's my issue. The Bill James Handbook has 6 good pages on injuries and it shows how much catchers get beat up.
You Oughta Know
7:27
All the yankee HRs!
Craig in CHI
7:27
Zola is stacked.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:27
It's a nice start
W
7:27
What would your strategy be if you picked Trout at 1.  Go back to back pitchers in next 2 rounds?
