2014 Early Season Draft Results

[Edwards Kings]

Interesting. I went back over the last 20 of these Greg posted. On those, in one out of every four leagues, Chris Davis went anywhere between pick 10 and pick 13. And Chris Davis out-pointed Miggy in three categories last year (yes, I know, that was last year) and tied him in a fourth. I am not going to use the "V" word, but what a gift!

[Hells Satans]

I'd bet at least one of my testicles that Davis doesn't sniff Cabrera value this year unless Cabrera dies.

[Edwards Kings]

Bob, please leave your testicles in your pants and out of this discussion!

Like I posted, I know those were numbers from last year. It is an unfair comparison given that was probably Davis' career year...BUT...how many guys hit 30+ homefuns last year and Davis with even a 20% regression this year makes it over 40. I think the strikeouts will catch up to his BA and the rest of the Orioles will have to cooperate by getting on base to keep his RBI's up...no guarantee there. Still, if I am drafting at 8 or 9 and Davis is there, I will consider him.

[Hells Satans]

Fair enough. Let me put these away now.

Thoughts?

Six 1B in the first round. More traditional, reminds me of drafts in the days when Pujols was still top 3.

[Edwards Kings]

Interesting approach by the team in Slot #3. After taking Goldschmidt in Round 1, this team took Scherzer, Kimbrel, Holland, Hamels and Rosenthal in Rounds 2-6.

It wasn't me...but I've tried a similar tactic before.
I like it.

Interesting, and anything CAN win, but why pick Goldschmidt in the first place? No matter what, this team is gonna struggle with power (RBI, R?), though they probably locked up one whopping category, saves, the most one dimensional stat we track and bought high on a pitcher who probably just had his career year (Scherzer). Hindsight is 20/20, but the margin of error is very thin with this strategy and Hamels already has the dreaded sore shoulder but reports said he could be back mid-April. See Corey Hart 2013.
