The guys who got to start out Arenado/McCutchen and Rizzo/Machado probably haven't stopped smiling.[/quote] The 13 slot was actually our 12th choice in KDS. Needless to say, if we knew we'd get those two, it would be our first selection.[/quote] I like what you guys did in rounds 3-6, too.[/quote] T...

Wow, that's a pitching heavy draft. Interesting to see four SPs go in the first round - can't recall seeing that before, at least in recent years.
